Nice addition

Cool to see.

 

[EUtopia]

What about some love for the iPad ?

 

[nfl46]

Nice. Before you know it, this app will replace theScore for me. It’s still a ways out, though.

'Murica!

(Also, why don't they call it iSports?)

 

[shadowboi]

DELETED

 

[seinman]

Still no golf.

I’d rather Apple fix the notification bug with the Apple sports app where notifications just stay on your screen forever when a team scores and don’t automatically dismiss themselves

 

[jonnyb098]

Now just need UFC and iPad support and I’ll be a happy camper!

Apple got bored of the iWhatever naming scheme years ago.

Nascar sucks..

Not even close for me right now. theScore recently adding automatic live activies for the teams I follow was a big plus.

 

[PsykX]

I appreciate this app honestly.
They kind of released an MVP with version 1.0 but now it feels much more complete.
I hope they continue to invest in this.

It would be a stroke of genius if they licenced the DAYTOOONAAAAAAA theme tune from Sega to play in the background.

 

[Matt713]

Would be great to see the PGA! Maybe by the Masters.

 

[jgreg728]

Great cool awesome WHERE’S THE IPAD AND MAC APPS???

Just in time for people who get excited watching cars turn left … then left … then left.

I get tired of watching all the TBI’s in football so watching cars turn left is a nice respite.

Just in time for people who get excited watching cars turn left … then left … then left.

Oops someone turn right!

How about making giving it a widget to display scores. None of the existing widgets are worth a darn, especially, since ESPN stopped working.

 

[trip1ex]

rather have hidden scores/spoilers for MLS in ATV+. Like I just want to see the replay option without scrolling through thumbnail images of the winners, scoring highlights, and worst of all the replay icon having the winners with medals around their necks.

Scores I can find anywhere (google is quick) and so far "Sports" isn't a great app. Needs to be more complete especially in depth.

 

[Firestorm007]

Time to add Formula 1. In F1 cars turn left and right!

 

[Polinsky]

Don't care about this. I hate car racing.

 

[bLackjackj]

And unbelievably no F1 or AFL (Australian Rules Football)..still waiting.

 

[sailboatking]

Still no F1 or Cricket too
