Wow, this is perfect. I've never found a sports app that was better than going to google.com and typing a team name. This is finally it. All I want to know, when it's getting about 4pm and my eyes start to glaze over: is there a game tonight?

give Apple some time; they'll add ads and otherwise enshitify the app

It has ads already — for its own sports broadcasts on Apple TV+.

I think a lot of their apps seem to be "placeholders" for some more comprehensive app someone else will make.

Maybe it is just a ploy to get people to find a replacement app in the app store, and get apple 30%.

or maybe "you're not the target market"... more complete apps are more complicated and might not be apple-like enough to create. Apple aligns more with simple than pro-user.

I wonder, does every apple user eventually become sophisticated enough to be "not the target market"??

sigh.
