If you're tired of cluttered sports apps packed with ads and irrelevant news, Apple Sports delivers exactly what you need: clean, fast score tracking. Perfect for following your favorite teams across leagues like MLB, NBA, and the newly added tennis coverage. It’s simple, focused, and keeps improving with each update.

About Apple Sports

I’ve been using Apple Sports since it launched, and it’s become my daily driver for checking scores—especially during baseball and basketball seasons. The interface is super clean: no distracting headlines or auto-play videos, just live scores, upcoming games, and quick access to watch options if you’re an Apple TV+ subscriber. One of my favorite features is the Live Activities integration, which lets you pin a game right to your Lock Screen—no more flipping between apps during tense moments. That said, it’s not perfect yet. A lot of users (myself included) are hoping for more league support—cricket, golf, and smaller soccer tournaments are frequently requested. I’ve also noticed some quirks with betting odds display, where the layout occasionally flips. But Apple’s been responsive; they added tennis not long ago, and the ‘Networks’ feature helps you see where games are broadcasting. It’s ideal if you follow major U.S. leagues and want a no-nonsense experience. If you’re into niche sports or want team-specific news feeds, you might still need to supplement with other apps. But for pure score tracking? This is hard to beat.

Key Features

  • Live Activities for real-time Lock Screen scores
  • Clean, ad-free design focused on scores and schedules
  • Watch integration with Apple TV+ and network listings

The app has gotten better and better. Recently added tennis but looking for a few more sports to be added. Need golf, mma and every major soccer tournament. Apple Sports is close to becoming the only sports app I use for results but adding more sports is still needed. So far so good though.

Please fix the way the odds are listed. The under is on top and over is on bottom. And the away and home team odds got flipped. It was correct but I think last update everything got flipped. Odds are upside down. Please fix the way the odds are listed. The under is on top and over is on bottom. And the away and home team odds got flipped.
