Scores & News
What it is
Live scores, streaming, news, & expert analysis across all sports.
ESPN is the definitive all-in-one sports app, combining live streaming, real-time scores, breaking news, and expert analysis into a single destination. It provides access to ESPN, ESPN2, ESPNU, SECN, ACCN, ESPN+, and ESPN on ABC content - covering the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college sports, soccer, golf, Grand Slam tennis, and more. Beyond scores, it is home to iconic shows like SportsCenter, First Take, College GameDay, and the full 30 for 30 documentary library.
How it works
Users follow their favorite teams and leagues to get a personalized feed of scores, alerts, and highlights through SC For You - a daily SportsCenter built around what you care about.
Live games stream directly in the app across ESPN networks, while Streamcenter lets fans watch on TV and engage in real time from their phone. ESPN Radio and podcasts are available for audio-only listening, and breaking news notifications fire the moment stories develop. Some content requires an ESPN Select or ESPN Unlimited subscription.
