Apple Sports now lets you track scores in CarPlay

I was disappointed when Apple launched a new product iOS sports widget last year Without CarPlay support, but I’m happy to report that has changed this week. The latest update to Apple Sports includes support for Widgets in CarPlay, allowing you to follow live sports scores for your favorite teams or leagues, all within the new Widgets interface in the iOS 26 version of CarPlay.

You can choose between the League widget that displays live scores and schedules for the league or sport you’re interested in, or the Teams widget that follows your favorite teams. Both tools will display live scores, but they don’t appear to update in real time. I tested the tool during Crystal Palace’s match against West Ham in the Premier League last night, and the match timer did not immediately advance.

I still prefer this to the Live Activity feature in the Apple Sports app that creates a widget in the CarPlay dashboard to keep track of games, as the new widgets interface is much less cluttered and you can stack three widgets side-by-side in many cars.

Apple has also added new F1 tracking features to its Sports app, allowing F1 fans to see weather conditions for each race, check track temperature, wind speed, and more. Apple Sports is also ready for this year’s World Cup, with a new feature that lets you follow favorite teams and see the group list before the tournament starts in June.
