Now available in Australia, but with no Australian sporting leagues or national sports. “Can’t innovate, my ass” 😕

Not an available feature, unfortunately. Still waiting for it to be rolled out.

Aha, US, UK and Canada, back then, so not available here at the time. Probably why I never heard of it. It has become available here, but only seems to cover the Bundesliga and 2. Bundesliga, the women's league, regional leagues and popular sports, like Handball aren't mentioned in the description*. Also, apart from NASCAR and F1, no motorsport - no DTM, MotoGP, Superbikes.
Hands-On With the New 'Apple Sports' App
Apple today released Apple Sports, a brand new app that's designed to be a dedicated hub for sports fans to find real-time statistics, scores, lineup details, live betting odds, and more. This is Apple's first new app in some time, so we thought we'd give it a quick evaluation. Subscribe to the...www.macrumors.com
It is also very US centric, about 80% of the offerings are US sports and leagues.
(*) I just downloaded it to look and the Bundesliga isn't offered, only the Champions League and Premier League, the rest seems to be all US sports leagues, even though the app description lists some national leagues for other countries. Aha, if I select "Only Football", it then offers up another page with additional 40 or so options that aren't shown in the all sports list, which only have the World Cup and the above mentioned leagues, so not all sports... Very confusing layout.

It’s always been available to use outside the US? 🤷♂️,..user since day 1.
I wish it would allow just goal notifications e.g. instead of the live activities screen. This drains so much power over a 90 min game that I switched it off or only use it at specific games.
