I subscribe to youtube tv which has the ESPN family of networks, so I should be able to get ESPN3 on any of my devices.

On my laptop, I'm able to stream ESPN3 and ESPN Plus on WatchESPN.

On my phone, I'm able to stream ESPN Plus but NOT ESPN3. But I can stream youtube tv

Any ideas of why I can't stream ESPN3 on my phone?

Jeff, I'm not sure how it is on a cell phone but using a laptop you have to select your video provider to log in. ESPN has about nine or ten cable/satellite providers' logos on the sign-in page with a scroll-down list of other providers. YouTube's logo isn't there, so you have to use the scroll-down list. Unfortunately it includes about every small cable and telephone company in the country so it's a very long list and it's alphabetical, so YouTube is the very last entry. Click on it and provide your YouTube password. Hope this helps.

Jeff, have you downloaded the ESPN App? That's your ticket to getting it to work. The Watch ESPN app probably doesn't work anymore if you have it.

I used the ESPN app to watch things over Christmas on my Samsung phone without problems.

I have the App, but still have not been able to figure it out.

I know what you mean about the scroll down box to select the TV provider. But, I don't know where to find it on my phone. That's what's holding me up.

Ended up reinstalling the ESPN app and that corrected the problem for some reason.
