These are the best (and most useful) apps for Eurovision 2023
To enjoy the Eurovision Song Contest to the fullest, a number of apps cannot be missed on your iPhone this week. We put together the nicest and most useful apps for the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 for you!
1. Eurovision Song Contest (Free)
The most complete app to follow the Eurovision Song Contest 2023 is of course the official app of the event itself. In Eurovision Song Contest you will find all video clips, participants and background information from this year. Via this app you can also vote for your favorite act, except for the Netherlands of course. The official app of the Eurovision Song Contest can be downloaded for free in the App Store:

2. NPO (free)
The only thing missing from the Eurovision Song Contest app is watching the broadcasts live. Don’t want to miss a moment of the two semi-finals and the final? Then you have to go to another app. In the Netherlands, the easiest way to watch Eurovision is via the free NPO app. The Eurovision Song Contest 2023 can then be watched completely free of charge and live or can be viewed later!

Netherlands Public Broadcasting Foundation
3. Eurovision Song Contest (free)
A function that is also missing in the official app of the Eurovision Song Contest: self-assessment of the performances. In the official app it is possible to make a top ten, but that’s it. Fortunately, we have the Dutch Eurovision Song Contest 2023 app, which makes this possible.
In the app you can rate the live performances while watching the Eurovision Song Contest. And a nice feature: the scores can then be shared with your friends. This way you can immediately see what your friends think of a certain performance. The AvroTros Eurovision Song Contest app is completely free to use and download from the App Store:
