10 Free Olympic Android Apps to Keep Up With Sochi 2014

The Olympics start tomorrow and as much I would love to sit in front of my TV and watch it 24/7, that just isn’t possible. So, instead, I went to my phone to keep up with the Olympic news.

I found 10 free Android Winter Olympic apps that will keep you updated with medal results, latest news, athlete bios, fun games, schedules and live broadcasts.
