The Apple Sports app has taken its first step forward since its launch just last month, with the release of version 1.1. This update, rolling out today, brings a host of enhancements tailored for sports enthusiasts, including optimizations for NCAA March Madness and support for Major League Baseball (MLB).
One of the most exciting features of this update is the heightened focus on NCAA March Madness. Users can now seamlessly track both the men’s and women’s tournaments within the Apple Sports app. Upon updating, users will notice new banners prominently displayed across the top of the app, offering real-time updates and highlights from each tournament. This addition promises to keep fans fully engaged and up-to-date with the excitement of March Madness.
Additionally, the Apple Sports app now extends its coverage to Major League Baseball, providing comprehensive support for MLB enthusiasts. Users can follow their favorite MLB teams and stay informed about the league as a whole. Apple has announced that full MLB data will be available starting on Opening Day later this month, including play-by-play updates, betting odds, box scores, and more.
Furthermore, this update introduces a practical organizational feature: final scores are now sorted by league, offering users a streamlined and efficient way to navigate through the app and access the information they seek.
It’s worth noting that the Apple Sports app remains exclusive to iPhone users. However, with its latest enhancements, it continues to solidify its position as a go-to destination for sports aficionados seeking comprehensive coverage and real-time updates.
