We're fans. We build the sports apps we wanted.
Appness LLC is an independent developer of free sports news apps for iPhone and Android. Our apps show you only the teams you care about, with news from writers who call it straight, not league PR.

Why we do this
We got sick of opening sports apps and wading through news about teams we don't care about. Sick of league websites that only publish what makes the commissioner look good. Sick of having to sign up just to check the score.
So in 2011 we built a Seattle Mariners app the way we wanted it: one team, real news, no noise. Then we built one for the Yankees, the Cubs, the Dodgers and a lot more teams. Today our team baseball apps serve fans of 17 MLB teams.
In 2026 we launched LFG Sports ("Live For the Game"), which takes the same idea across four leagues. Pick any mix of MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL teams and that's all you see.
What makes our apps different
- Only your teams. Not every team in the league crammed into a feed you have to scroll past.
- No league PR. News comes from beat writers, bloggers and podcasters who say when the team stinks.
- No sign-in. Open the app and know what happened last night.
- Independent. We aren't affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by MLB, the NBA, the NFL, the NHL or any team.
Our apps
LFG Sports: follow any MLB, NBA, NFL and NHL teams in one app. Free on iPhone and Android.
Team baseball apps: each built for one team's fans, like NY Baseball for Yankees fans and Chicago Baseball for Cubs fans. See every team.
