Title: Can't get CNN Mobile app
Post by: nodsirrah on March 07, 2013, 09:31:44 AM
CNN ad claims there is an app for CNN Mobile on Google Play, I can't find it!
I would like to compare FOX and CNN to make sure I get "Fair and Balanced" news on my N7.
Anyone help?

Not compatible with the Nexus 7. Maybe we could find an apk to side load.

Should work,   :D

Works perfect on my Asus Google NEXUS 7.
In the upper-right hand corner of that Photon Browser is a
'Lightning Bolt' icon that you must click to watch the CNN LIVE
streaming FLASH video.... Good browser for streaming Flash.  ;D

Heres a link to the CNN apk from my dropbox.  Enable apps from unknown sources and install.

Just remember that the app isn't supported by the Nexus yet, so the format might not be in tablet mode.

Looks like a pretty cool app. I had a force close to begin with but working now.

well, the app works OK here...
However IF you want to watch streaming  24/7 CNN  LIVE TV...
& you have no CNN TV account...($$$PAID$$$ TV)...
You still Will NOT be able to watch CNN LIVE.

Read my previous entry to get free CNN live TV. ;D
