The best sports news app
depends on the job

Scores app, highlights app, streaming app, one-team app: these are different products that all get called "sports apps". Here is what each one is actually built around, said plainly, including what the others do better than Vurvo.

Where Vurvo fits

Vurvo is built for one job: everything written, filmed and recorded about your team, in one feed. Not a national feed with your team in it, and not one publisher's take. Every outlet that covers them, including the local beat writers and the team podcasts, in your team's colors. 663 teams across 15 leagues, free.

It is especially built for fans who do not live in their team's market, because that is when the local coverage stops finding you. If you want live game streaming, the deepest box scores, or a highlights reel, one of the apps below will serve you better, and each page says so.

The comparisons
