If you're a professional or college football fan who wants to travel through time so you can watch every game as it happens, Apple Sports might be able to help you out. The iPhone sports app can't break the laws of quantum physics, but it can help you catch every game during the football season
The latest update to Apple Sports adds more comprehensive alerts and features for National Football League (NFL) and National Collegiate Athletic Association Football (NCAAF) games, and the app will not only provide up-to-date scores and stats for games, but will also provide play-by-play updates for scoring using a new “dynamic drive tracker” that can show the location of the ball on the field. The Apple Sports app will also provide real-time betting odds during each game
The app will eventually add a drop-down screen that shows key scorecards from game to game, a feed of updates for your teams, and a search function that makes it easier to find and switch between games even if you don't follow them. The Apple TV 's "Live Activity" alert feature will also be dismantled , and both of those features will be dropped when the iOS 18 beta launches in the fall
The Apple Sports app launched in February for free and is now available on the App Store , starting Thursday. The app can track games for 15 different league seasons, including the NFL, NCAAF, Major League Soccer (MLS), Major League Baseball (MLB) and National Basketball Association (NBA), and Apple says more leagues will be added to the app in future updates
