Better yet, you can follow them without having to unlock your devices.
Apple Sports, the app you need to never miss a single sporting detail
At present, The feature is present in the TV app under the name “Follow the game”However, this only works for baseball and football coverage in the United States. The difference now will be that the user will decide from which teams he wants to receive activities and live updates.. As soon as you start one or more matches, the results will be displayed on the lock screen of your iPhone or Apple Watch.
It’s also possible to follow Apple Sports teams and have a single or small group of teams automatically start live activities.. For example, if you don’t follow a certain team but want to follow the live activity right now, all you have to do is press a button in the corner located on the game card itself.
Recall that this is one of the new features that will be part of the launch of iOS 18 and watchOS 11 and that promises to continue to improve. Apple is reportedly preparing user interface improvements that will see a faster menu and improved search for users who are unfamiliar with certain sports leagues. Media coverage will be important as more football leagues are added around the world, including the upcoming Champions League and Europa League.
