Now you can take MSN’s most popular apps – News, Weather*, Sports, Money, Health & Fitness, and Food & Drink – with you anywhere, whether you’re on the web, your Windows or Windows Phone device, and now, iPhone, iPad, Android devices, or your Amazon Kindle and Amazon Fire Phone. Earlier this fall we unveiled a new MSN that was built from the ground up for a mobile first, cloud first world. With the addition of iOS, Android and Amazon apps, we’re bringing the cross-platform nature of the new MSN full-circle.

The apps, newly available for download through respective app stores, let you customize and organize the information you want, according to your interests. Beautiful, immersive, and customized to work fluidly on each unique platform, the MSN apps feature an unprecedented breadth of content. Using the MSN News app, for example, you get definitive content from thousands of the industry’s top sources, from the Associated Press to CNN.  And it’s easy to stay updated on any topic you care about, from global events to your local news, all in one place

Using the MSN Sports app, you’ll see real-time game updates, follow schedules and standings and read the latest news across 200 leagues and thousands of teams. The MSN Money app gives you financial news and data, lets you create a Watchlist to track stocks, mutual funds and investment vehicles that you’re interested in, as well as provides you with tools and calculators  to help you determine anything from a tip at dinner, to a mortgage estimate on a new home, or even retirement planning.

The MSN Health & Fitness app lets you track your diet and exercise, find workouts for your needs, and check symptoms for potential ailments. The MSN Food & Drink app brings you over 300,000 tasty recipes,  letting you create collections of your favourites, as well as watch instructional videos and learn from world-famous chefs. Ah, and let’s not forget the extremely helpful wine guide, with over 1.5 million wine reviews.

The MSN Weather app provides not only a 10-day forecast but hourly forecasts, historical weather averages, as well as severe weather alerts for more than 100,000 locations.
