Best Sports Apps for Scores and Live Games, Ranked

DAZN is a sports subscription built around boxing, with European football alongside it: fight cards from Matchroom, Queensberry, Golden Boy and BKFC, plus Champions League and Serie A coverage in Spanish for the US audience. The listing counts more than 185 fights a year. It is the most expensive app in this catalogue — $34.99 a month — and major fights are still sold separately as pay-per-view.
Specs come from the official store listings and were last checked on 2026-09-07. Developers change pricing and requirements — check the store page before installing.
The subscription costs $34.99 a month or $249.99 for a year, which works out cheaper per month but locks in the commitment. Separately, individual pay-per-view cards are sold inside the app at $54.99 to $88.99 apiece — the listed events include several Canelo fights at $59.99, $64.99 and $88.99. A tier called DAZN Ultimate bundles at least twelve pay-per-views into one subscription for people who buy several a year. The honest summary: the base price is not what a boxing fan ends up spending. Prices are US listings.
Beyond video, the app works as a sports tracker. Setup asks which teams you follow — Champions League clubs are offered directly — and the score tab then shows live results, fixtures and stats by competition and date, with reminders you can set per match. The Spanish-language rights matter for the US market: Champions League and Serie A commentary in Spanish is a specific reason people subscribe here rather than to a general sports service. Boxing gets its own hub with a schedule of upcoming cards. Highlights sit in their own tab, which is the practical answer to fights that start after midnight in a US time zone.
Apple rates the app 18+ and cites advertising and realistic violence, and the Google Play listing carries a Contains ads badge on a service that already costs $34.99 a month. The data card lists five collected categories — including messages — with all five shared with third parties, and Apple adds that the app tracks users across other companies' apps and websites. Store ratings stay high on both platforms, at 4.7 on Apple's side and 4.5 across 643,000 Play reviews, so the objections are about price rather than reliability.

For a boxing fan there is no real substitute — the promoters here do not sell their cards anywhere else, and 185 nights a year is a genuine number. Everyone else should look hard at the total: $34.99 a month before pay-per-views that reach $88.99, with advertising still inside the paid product. If you buy several cards a year, the Ultimate tier is the only version of this that adds up.

Very little. The app downloads free and lets you browse schedules, follow teams and see live scores without paying, but watching is behind the subscription. Even then, advertising appears — the Play listing carries a Contains ads badge — and the biggest fights require a separate pay-per-view purchase.
A higher subscription tier that folds at least twelve pay-per-view events into the price rather than selling them one at a time. For someone who buys three or four cards a year at $54.99 to $88.99 each, it is the arithmetic the app expects you to do.
The standard subscription is $34.99 a month or $249.99 a year. Individual pay-per-view events run from $54.99 to $88.99, and Ultimate bundles twelve or more of them into one price. Those are US figures — DAZN prices vary widely by country, more than most streaming services.
Yes — highlights have their own tab and full replays of cards appear after broadcast, which matters for European football and fights that start in the middle of the night. Live streams themselves cannot be downloaded, so watching offline is not an option here.
ESPN covers wider US sport for less money but has fewer boxing cards. Peacock carries NBC's rights, including Premier League football, at a third of the price. This app is the choice when boxing is the reason, because most of those promoters do not sell anywhere else.
