The expansion of the Apple Sports app is set to enhance the experience for soccer fans, as it becomes available in over 90 new countries and regions. This rollout, announced on May 19, 2026, positions the app as a vital tool for following sports, particularly with the upcoming World Cup.
This free application aggregates real-time scores, statistics, and results from various sports, addressing the challenges posed by fragmented broadcast rights across multiple channels. Users can stay updated on their favorite teams even if they cannot watch the games live.
Notably, the app includes features tailored for the World Cup, allowing fans to track the tournament, view brackets, and analyze visual formations of starting lineups. Additionally, it provides convenient access to the Apple TV app for streaming live matches, alongside platforms like YouTube and TikTok.
