Apple targeting sports enthusiasts with new app

Apple is targeting sports enthusiasts with its latest app.

The new Apple Sports app aims to provide users with scores and other data for teams competing in multiple leagues in real-time. 

Apple Sports users “can easily navigate between scores and upcoming games; explore play-by-play information, team stats, lineup details, and live betting odds” within the app, the tech giant said. For the betting odds, it shows the moneyline, total and spread for a given match-up.

Apple Sports also has a feature that enables sports fans who want to tune into a game to move to Apple TV and other streaming apps. They will need to have active subscriptions for the games.
