If you’re looking forward to watching your buddies’ brackets fall while you chow down on all the hot wings you can get your hands on during March Madness, you’re in for a treat. This year you’ll be able to watch all the action on just about any device you can imagine.

The 2016 NCAA Tournament kicks off March 15, and this year the official NCAA March Madness Live app is available on 12 platforms, including iOS, Android, Windows, Chromecast, Roku, Fire TV, and even in split-screen on the new Apple TV with access to watch all 67 games, make picks, follow the bracket in real-time, check live scores, stats, video highlights, and more.

Update 15 March 2016: This article has been updated to add live streaming options for cord cutters, including how to stream March Madness using Sling TV and Playstation Vue.

Before you watch

Games are being broadcast on CBS, truTV, TBS, and TNT. Except for games broadcast on CBS, you’ll need to sigh in using your cable or satellite TV account details.

But the good news is, there’s a three-hour complimentary live video pass before you actually have to sign in. And, courtesy of Westwood One, you’ll also get audio streams of the radio broadcasts of all 67 games.

Note: The Final Four on April 2 and the championship game on April 4 are both scheduled to be broadcast on TBS, so get your TV provider log in details ready.

Watch in your browser

To watch online, access NCAA March Madnes Live at www.ncaa.com/marchmadness, www.bleacherreport.com, and www.cbssports.com.

Use the app to watch on (almost) any device

To watch inside an app, get the official March Madness Live app for iOS, Windows 10, Android, Roku, Amazon Fire TV and Fire tablets, and Apple TV.

If you have a fourth-gen Apple TV, you’ll be able to use split-screen to watch two games side by side.

The iOS app supports AirPlay on both iPhone and iPad, allowing you to send video to third-gen or older Apple TVs and Mac, and all the mobile apps include support for Google Cast so you can send video to a Chromecast.

Special treat for Apple Watch owners

The iOS app supports Apple Watch and you can get alerts for your favorite teams and quick access to live scores and the schedule.

Cord cutters rejoice

If you’re looking for ways to legally watch March Madness online without a cable subscription, Mr. Cable Cutter, writing for CutCableToday, offers the following two solutions:

Sling TV

For $20 per month — with no contract — Sling TV subscribers have live access to a range of cable TV channels, including TNT, TBS, truTV (added to the base package for just for March Madness), and ESPN. This means you can watch the majority of the games online without also needing a pay-TV login. And remember, you can watch CBS games using the March Madness Live app without a pay-TV login.

Sling TV lets you watch the games on almost any device, including smartphones, tablets, and computers running iOS, Android, Amazon Fire, OS X, Windows, and Xbox One. If you want to watch on the big screen, you can use your Roku, Amazon Fire, or Chromecast streaming player to watch Sling TV directly on your TV.

Right now, Sling TV is offering a 7-day free trial so you, if you want, you can watch a week’s worth of games free of charge.

PlayStation Vue

Like Sling TV, Sony’s PlayStation Vue lets you stream live TV over the Internet and offers all four channels broadcasting March Madness games.

There are some exceptions: PlayStation Vue packages that include live local channels, like CBS, are only available in select markets, including Chicago, Dallas, Miami, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York.

PlayStation Vue has a Slim package — for $29.99 per month, but there’s also a 7-day free trial — that includes TBS, TNT, and truTV nationwide.

Note: PlayStation Vue’s device support is slightly more limited and only includes options to watch on PS3 & PS4 consoles, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, Chromecast, iPad, and iPhone.

March Madness schedule

The First Four play March 15-16, followed by the first round on March 17-18 and the second round on March 19-20.

The Sweet 16 airs March 24-25 and the Elite 8 comes March 26-27. The Final Four will be played on April 2 with the championship game on April 4.
