apple tv plus sports multiview
‌Apple TV‌ 4K owners can watch up to four simultaneous sports streams, including Major League Soccer matches, Friday Night Baseball games, and some MLS and MLB live shows like MLS 360 and MLB Big Inning.

The customizable multiview experience in the ‌Apple TV‌ app lets users see available live games at the bottom of the screen, and they can select the games that they want to watch. There are multiple layout options available for two matches and for matches, along with audio control preferences. Swapping back to one screen can be done with a click.

Though Apple does not mention it, multiview sports could require tvOS 16.5, as the feature has been active during the tvOS 16.5 beta testing period. tvOS 16.5 is available as of today.

Looks like a lot of wasted screen. It would be cool to see player stats or something to fill in the space
The wasted space in the screenshot is because it’s showing the game selection UI at the bottom. Normally the four games in the center would fill the whole screen.

If they could do something like this for MotoGP and Formula 1 it would be awesome. Let you pick multiple camera feeds and live timing.
