Earlier this year, Apple introduced a free Sports app that allows fans to view live scores, track games, check betting odds, follow teams, and more. To prepare for the upcoming football season, the Cupertino firm is updating the new iPhone app to support Live Activities on iOS 18 and watchOS 11, real-time ball tracking during games, and more.
Apple announced on its Newsroom website that it’s updating its Sports app in preparation for the forthcoming football season. On iOS 18 and watchOS 11, the app will support Live Activities, allowing fans to view real-time game scores right from the lock screen or Dynamic Island. Additionally, the app will start visualizing where the ball is on the field, which would let users track it in real time.
