Apple Sports App Updated With Key Plays, Pregame Lineups, and More

Does anyone know how to get it so that the games automatically go on live activities?
Neither of my teams (Newcastle United, Colts) that I have on the app automatically start, despite doing everything that I’m supposed to do.

For me, "Live Sports" is the app they have to beat and at the moment, as with a lot of stuff they produce, it's a Fisher Price version, not even in the same league/ballpark.

For me it's Sports Alerts. They have what I need and it gives me the network the game plays on, unlike Apple's sports app.

You have to make sure it is enable for Live Activities in settings and if you want the updates fast, a live time clock make sure that More Frequesnt Updates is enabled.

The in the app itself where you add your teams select the button with the 3 horizontal lines and make sure your Teams are enabled fo live activities there.

One of the things like about this update is that even for teams you don’t follow, but want to keep an eye on a game you can set it to show in advance of the game starting instead of having to wait for game start.

I just did that for the Bears and Vikings who I am not a fan of as I prefer the Packers, but want to see how this one polars out as both are in the same league conference. Wish there was a way they both could lose.

This is what I use. The network is important to me, too.

I’m in the same boat, in that scores do not start automatically, despite me having live activities switched on for my team.

I’m hoping that this update has fixed the issue but need to wait a few days for my team to play to test this.

I like the simplicity of the app and really like the live activities when they are running. But I need them to auto-start before I consider this app as decent.

It's been a really good app, just the TV delays are ridiculous, I get updates way before I see them.

Seems solvable by having a drop down in settings asking you how long you want your delay. I'd go with 3 mins
