The ABC app and ABC.com are TV Everywhere services that allow TV subscribers that get ABC and live in the US to stream ABC content on demand. While you can watch ABC.com on most smart phones and tablets, it only works if you are within the United States or a US territory. ABC shows include soap operas like General Hospital, late-night talk shows like Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and drams like How to Get Away with Murder.
