Article: Apple Sports Update Falls Short of Expectations

Apple Sports users were left disappointed yet again with the latest update to the sports score app. Version 1.5 brought Leagues Cup support and a new indicator for MLB box scores, leaving many users wondering when the app will finally get the much-needed functionality like notifications and Live Activities.

Despite being a free app, Apple Sports continues to fall short of expectations, with the lack of notifications and the inability to follow favorite teams making it a frustrating experience for sports fans. With the English Premier League pre-season friendlies kicking off, users relying on Apple Sports are left in the dark about their favorite teams’ fixtures.

While Apple has been updating the app semi-regularly, it’s clear that simple additions like notifications and Live Activities support are still missing. Until these essential features are added, users are advised to look for alternative sports score apps like Flashscore.

The question remains: when will Apple Sports step up its game and provide the functionality that users have been asking for? Until then, it seems like the app will remain on the back burner for many sports fans.
