My Apple TV app on iPhone doesn’t show ‘Follow’ button

Hi, I have one simple question. How can I turn on live activities (sports score) on locked screen, when my Apple TV app on live program (IIHF Junior) doesn’t show ‘Follow’ button, just Watch button. Thank you

Live games on Apple Tv Why would you display the current score of a live baseball game when you give the option for a person to “start from the beginning”???? You are blowing it for people who want to start the game and NOT know what has happened. Seriously?? Do not show the scores of games right on the app I need to click on to watch it!!! Please stop!!!!

Score updates in live activities not working I am having a tough time figuring out how to see live score updates on my iPhone. I have an iPhone 14 Pro. I went to News and followed several teams. Sometimes I see the Follow button in the TV app and sometimes I don't. For example, Michigan and Penn State are playing now. I follow both teams. I went to the TV app on my phone and the only button there is 'Open in'. What am I not doing correctly?

Live sports scores no longer appear in dynamic island or lock screen on iPhone 15 Pro I received my iPhone15 Pro last week but so far I have not been able to get live sports scores to show up in the dynamic island or on the lock screen. In the past I have been able to do this by going to the TV app, finding the game I want under "watch live sports" and then hitting the "check mark" at the top of the screen ... nothing happens Things I have tried: Toggled "Allow Live Activities" in Settings -> TV -> Live Activities Toggled "Sync My Sports" in Settings -> News Toggled "Live Activities" in Settings -> Face ID & Passcode Removed & re-added teams to "Following" under "Sports" in the News App Fully powered off the phone What's next?

Hey cokeys_cs,

We’d be happy to help out. If you don’t have the option to follow, it would not be available for Live Activity.

For more info on this feature, review: Access features from the iPhone Lock Screen - Apple Support

We hope this helps out.

Take care!
