Apple Sports, Updated for Football Season, Will Soon Support Live Activities
Apple Newsroom:
With iOS 18 and watchOS 11, the Apple Sports app will offer Live
Activities for all teams and leagues available in the app for the
first time ever, delivering live scores and play-by-play at a
quick glance to a user’s iPhone and Apple Watch Lock Screens.
Coming in an app update later this year, Apple Sports will also
introduce a new drop-down navigation for the main scorecard views,
making it even faster to switch between My Leagues, My Teams, and
users’ feeds for favorited leagues. A new enhanced search makes it
easier to view matches for leagues fans do not currently follow.
Does anyone understand why it requires iOS 18 for Live Activities? Perhaps it’s just a subtle nudge to get people to upgrade their device OS?
