In addition, Apple encourages people to get ready for the 2026 FIFA World Cup by following their favorite teams and exploring the groups of countries in the Apple Sports app before the tournament kicks off on Thursday, June 11.

Here are Apple's release notes for version 3.10 of the app:

• Get ready for World Cup 2026 — follow your favorite teams and explore the groups on Apple Sports before the tournament kicks off in June.

• Now F1 fans can see weather conditions for each Grand Prix. Check track temperature, wind speed, and more.

• Smaller widgets are now available for Apple Sports, so you can keep up with your favorite teams and leagues in more places, including CarPlay.

Launched in 2024, the Apple Sports app is available on the iPhone in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, and many countries in Europe, the Caribbean, and Latin America. The app shows scores, stats, standings, and more for a variety of leagues and events, including the NFL, MLB, NBA, NHL, NASCAR, F1, Premier League, PGA TOUR, and more.

That's cool, but I can already see live scores with Live Activities. I actually like listening to sports on Sirius though, it shows the score while the audio is playing.

Good to know about these changes but waiting for the app to launch in my country. Expanding to other countries is slow.
