Sports in the Apple TV app can link to external “connected” sports apps.

Such apps can be set to connect or not through the app settings. Not sure how that worked on iOS 12, but on iOS 16 it is now configurable through the account icon in the Watch Now tab.


MLS and FNB in the Apple TV app now require iOS 16.2 or later. These two services will not work on iPhone 6 in the Apple TV app. iOS 16 and iPadOS 16 are compatible with these devices - Apple Support (iPhone 8 or later).
