I like this app a lot. It's simple, no frills and the Live Activities integration is great.

With that said, how is this still not available for Apple Watch or iPad??

It’s, unironically, one of Apple’s best creations in recent memory. It’s much faster than the ESPN app for live scores.

I recently deleted the Sports app. The number of new apps I add (or delete) has slowed to a trickle in recent years because I have the core functionality I need, innovation is minimal, and too many apps are only tools to suck your data for their benefit. Sports didn't fill any need because I care mostly about pro cycling and golf, not the major team sports that are the focus of Sports and attract bettors. Sure, I watch lots of NFL, but that league is so over-exposed that I didn't need Apple's app, so Sports was an easy and satisfying app to purge.
