Is there any way of setting my MLS section on Apple TV to NOT show the scores? I want to be able yo watch the games on delay without knowing the results. If I want to know the results I can go to MLSSoccer.com. Don’t need to use Apple TV to get results.
QTQ80,
If you are watching on Apple TV, and have a voice activated remote, say “Settings“, which will take you to the global Settings screen. Choose “Apps”, then “TV”. The second item in that TV menu is “Show Sports Scores“, which is probably set to “On”. Click to toggle it “Off” and close out. Back in the Season Pass area, you should find that the previously recorded game panels no longer display the final score before you select them. Hope this helps!

There is an option to hide game scores in the in-app Settings (sprockets wheel icon on the app home page).
Thank you. FYI for others, it’s in the Privacy section and titled Show Sports Scores (on or off) between Clear Play History and Location
Don't use the Apple TV App! Just type in your browser tv.apple.com/settings
you may need to sign in.
Then scroll down all the way where "Show sport scores" is located. Then turn it off.
Today I'm seeing a new "Web Settings" section in the Account Settings on tv.apple.com that lets me turn off scores for web views only. (So it's supplemental to other settings in apps.) I removed my custom styles and still don't see scores, so this hopefully solves the problem!
Another Timbers fan here, just wanted to chime in and say how frustrating the entire interface design is. Even when you can hide the scores you still have to navigate through thumbnails showing all the highlights of the game before you can even get to the full match replay, which for some reason is all the way at the bottom of the screen. I have to partially block the screen with my hand to avoid seeing them, which is far from ideal. I can’t always watch games live, but as it stands the service is almost useless for watching match replays. Or, when you do link to the game you want to watch from the main screen, for some reason it defaults to offering you ‘match highlights’. Then you still have to go to the bottom of the screen (scrolling past highlight thumbnails), then long press to select ‘full match replay’. It’s wild. Is it so hard to create a spoiler free front end with icons that lead directly to the full match replay? It’s such poor interface design it almost seems deliberate. Hope they fix this soon! I’m genuinely considering canceling the service. It was not an issue in previous seasons on their prior streaming service.
This is very frustrating and the type of behavior that makes it seem like Apple isn't interested in the open web or feature parity for those of us not on Apple devices.
In the mean time, I was able to write some custom CSS that I installed on my browser (I use the Custom Style Script add-on) to hide all the scores I could find. There might be one or two I missed, but this covers most of the screens:
Site: https://tv.apple.com
.epic-stage-metadata-title__score,
.lockup-overlay__sports-score__score__team,
.product-header--sport-event__scoreboard__score {
display: none !important;
}
I hope this helps a few of you until Apple fixes this for those of us watching in a browser.
… in web browser …
It appears that there is currently no option to change that (yet).
Let Apple know what you think would improve the web access for MLS through tv.apple.com.
I had to use the Apple TV app on my TV to find the settings cog (far right of top screen menu). I believe it’s also available in the web browser version on a laptop or computer.
it only partially works. The featured game still blares the score.
Still no option to hide scores on the AppleTV web browser. Third week of the season, please advise how to change
This is a default that needs to go away immediately. The score should not be visible on anything that someone might have to see. It needs to be fixed for the home screen also. It has already ruined matches for me. What is the point of being able to catch the match an hour or two late after my kids soccer game only to have the app tell me the outcome before I hit play? Please remove this or at least create the option to remove it whole sale with my own setting changes.
That removed the scores from the team and match pages, but it is still showing the scores for the five featured games on the MLS Home Screen. Any ideas?
Bumping to agree with "hookontouch". Every single other sports streaming app does not post the scores by default (i.e. ESPN+, Peacock, Paramount). Please fix asap
Chiming in with the others. Default should be to not show scores. How many people want to see the score of the game they're about to watch? Subscribers without an iphone don't even have the option to hide them when using the website on PC or Android. Are you seriously trying to force every person who wants to watch mls on their phone to buy an iphone so they can change this setting?
