The Best Apps to Stream the Presidential Inauguration

On Friday, Jan. 20, President-elect Donald Trump will officially become the 45th President of the United States. The Inauguration Ceremony will take place at the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., and Trump’s swearing-in is scheduled to begin at 11:30 AM EST. While the options exist to watch the Inauguration on television or by streaming it online, there are also several free apps for both iPhone and Android operating systems that will allow users to stream the 2017 Inaugural Ceremony directly on their mobile phones.

CBS News

CBSN, a 24/7 digital news station that is part of the CBS News network, will be live streaming the 2017 Inauguration for free through the CBS News app. With real-time updates, reporting, and news with no subscription, the CBS News app is one of the simplest resources for live news coverage.
