The Los Angeles Chargers added new features to its mobile app to prioritize digital experiences during the pandemic. The reworked mobile app will feature live-streamed games, and live information updates about the team. Other multimedia features include podcasts, game highlights, interviews, and team news. Users will also have the ability to customize the app icon.
The new features were created through a collaboration with TinzCam, a software developer. The Los Angeles Chargers app is available for both iOS and Android devices.
The redesigned app was initially intended to complement the stadium experience, as SoFiStadiuum recently finished construction. However, with fans not allowed at the stadium, the team looked at other ways the app can be used.
