Official Manchester United app gets released, but not everyone can download it yet
The official Manchester United app for Windows Phone has been released, but with limited availability. The app itself has launched in 18 countries, however the UK, US and many other countries have been skipped with further support expected in future updates. If you're an avid Man Utd football club fan, this is an app for you (or will be in the near future).
The app (as the name suggests) enables users to remain up-to-date with everything happening with the club, including exclusive content, articles and an inside view of life at Old Trafford (the football club's ground). It's possible to follow live matches while on the go with updated scores and even inside access prior to kick-off and post-match reactions in a single location, with video interviews and features to boot.
If you're not familiar with the history of Manchester United, the app provides an insight into its rich heritage, displaying those magical moments from each decade of the club's existence. There's also transfer gossip, fixtures information, wallpapers and more. It's a neat looking app and packed full of functionality. The only issue with the app (in its current form) is the lack of region support.
Here's a list of countries currently supported in this version: Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Burkina Faso, Republic Of Congo, Congo (DRC), Gabon, India, Kenya, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Niger, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Chad, Thailand and Tanzania. We understand that more countries will be supported in future versions, so be sure to watch this space for the next release.
