All the apps you need for Super Bowl Sunday

Including apps for recipes, betting odds, the best clips and your favorite commercials

It's been a looooong season for the NFL (the Ray Rice scandal feels like it happened forever ago at this point) but it's all finally nearly over. The big game is just hours away now and you've got everything prepared. You've got your snacks picked out, your bets made and your this. You're all set.

Arent you? If you're a procrastinator, and you  just shot out of bed realizing that you somehow forgot to make your plans, have no fearL here are the Super Bowl apps you can download for your last minute preparations.

• For the gambling addict

I've only been gambling once in my life, on a boat between Italy and Greece, and I immiediately saw the allure: as soon as I went up, I only wanted more. It honestly scared me a little bit.

If you really have to risk your money on the game, I suggest using the Betting Odds app. It doesn't actually let you bet (because that would be illegal, correct?) but it does provide free odds, lines, spreads, over unders, totals, scores and breaking injury reports from Sports Insights.

(Note VatorNews does not condone gambling of any sort, so don't blame us if you lose your life savings!)

• For the people who somehow got stuck somewhere else on Super Bowl Sunday

Did your ultra crappy boss tell you that you had to work Super Bowl Sunday? Or did one of your ancient relatives decide that they just couldn't hold on a few more days? Or did you get stuck in the airport, trying to get home to watch the big game?

Fear not, for you can always turn to Thuuz to find out what's happening.

The app rates all live and upcoming games on a scale of 0-100, making it easy for its users to know exactly what to watch. It can be personalized based on favorite teams, sports and Fantasy players.

But here's the best part: users can set up an alert system, to get notified when something big happens. Once they get that update, the app also gives them the opportunity to turn to the game on a TV data base. Basically, it allows its users to always be up on the latest action, even if they aren't around to see it/

• For the socia media maven

Are you the type of person who always has to be the first to post on social media? Do you hate it when  someone comes up with something better to say and gets more likes or retweets? Then you should be using Clippit.

The app will let you take the top moments from the game, as it is airing, and share those clips with friends and family on social media.

While everyone else is coming up with their snarky comments about the power going out in the stadium (remember that? Did anyone  ever figure out what happened there?) you'll be the one actually posting the video of the latest plays. Those are bound to give you the attention on social media that you crave so much.

Also, please get some help. Seriously.

• For the "I only watch for the commercials" people

I'm not going to lie: the people who only watch the game for the commercials annoy the hell out of me. Yes,  yes, you're too cool for school, and so above all the other ignoramuses who enjoy sports. We all bow down to your superiority.

It is the Super Bowl season, though, and I'm feeling generous.

Super Ads will allow you to watch your favorite ads from Super Bowls past, including all of the ads that ran in the last seven years and the best all-time ads spanning four decades.

If you're main problem with the Super Bowl is that you have nothing to watch while the game is actually on, this is definitely the one for you.

• For the person who doesn't know anything about football, but still wants to fit in

Considering the number of people who watch the Super Bowl, I'm guessing that, for a fair amount amount of the audience, this is the ONLY game they watch all season. Do these people even like football, or do they just want to be part of the shared experience? I'm guessing the latter.

If you're one of those people, and you want to participate in the game but you're afraid of making a stupid comment, try the Super Bowl XLIX - NFL Official Program app.

It contains all the content from the printed commemorative program, along with a gallery of images and information about every previous Super Bowl, including high-resolution images of every Super Bowl ring; and a thorough recap of the 2014 regular season and playoffs. 

It even has animated starting lineups and stadium renderings; real-time Twitter and Instagram feeds; current temperature at University of Phoenix Stadium; and sortable rosters for both teams.

With this app you can pretend to be a football fan for three hours, then be relieved you don't have to watch another game for a whole year.

• For the chef

You've got your invites out, your guestlist set  and everything set up. Now you just have to figure out what everyone is going to eat.

Sure, you could just go buy some chips and dip and pour them into bowls, but come on. Anyone can do that. You want to give your guests the best  experience possible. And that means good food.

I suggest trying out the NFL Homegating app. It allows you send party invitations, view recipes, view cooking and party tips,  and  share recipes and products using social media. 

At best, no one will call you lazy, and that's something, right?

• For the chord cutter

The NFL has been especially good to  the chord cutter this year, making it legal for them to stream the game for free, including, for the first time ever, the half time show as well. Because we all know how much everyone and I mean everyone likes Katy Perry.

So where can you  cable-haters actually watch the game? On the NBC Sports Live Extra app. Or, if you're a Verizon customer, try the NFL Mobile app.
