If you’ve been relying on the ESPN app to keep up with scores, stats, and schedules, it might be time for a switch. Apple just dropped a brand-new, completely free app called Apple Sports, and it’s built from the ground up to give fans real-time access to scores, stats, and more – faster and cleaner than ever before.
This isn’t some bloated news app trying to do everything. Apple Sports is laser-focused on speed and simplicity, giving users a no-frills scoreboard that’s personalized to their favorite teams and leagues.
“We created Apple Sports to give sports fans what they want — an app that delivers incredibly fast access to scores and stats,” said Eddy Cue, Apple’s senior vice president of Services. “Apple Sports is available for free in the App Store and makes it easy for users to stay up to date with their favorite teams and leagues.”

Right out of the gate, Apple Sports supports these major leagues currently in season:
- MLS
- NBA
- NCAA Basketball (Men’s & Women’s)
- NHL
- Bundesliga

More leagues, including NFL, MLB, NCAAF, WNBA, and NWSL, will be added as their seasons begin.
Designed for Real Fans
The app gives you full control over your scoreboard view. You can follow specific teams, leagues, and tournaments, and the app adapts to your preferences. Want to track the Eagles and Patriots? Easy. Need the latest basketball scores while checking NBA betting odds? Done.
Apple Sports also includes:
