I am so confused. I log in to NBC Sports Gold and don't see anything on the schedule besides the Dauphine. ( I can't even see a date for when my current subscription expires.)

Other thing I’ve noticed is that image quality is better on iOS compared to android.

This is normal it’s one of the things I noticed first. When I watched video on my daughter’s fire tv. When she moved back into the house.

I still have NBC Gold. The last few times I've watched it, it said that I should use NBC Sports, or something like that. Gold is apparently going the way of the dodo, and its coverage of cycling and other sports folded into NBC sports. On my TV, it's a different app.

So NBC still has the coverage, they've just moved it from one app to another.
