Every Sunday (or Thursday, and an occasional Monday some years) you can find my husband and I plopped in our living room, ready to watch our Indianapolis Colts.
It wasn’t until I wrote about busted brackets in the college basketball tournament that I really dug into the features of the X1 Sports app, and how it was a game changer (<- see what I did there?) for when we’re watching sports at home.
As an Xfinity X1 subscriber, there are a couple of ways you can launch the X1 Sports app:
- By voice: Press and hold your X1 remote’s microphone button and say “Sports”
- By one-touch: Press the “C” button on your X1 remote control
- By on-screen prompts: Press the Xfinity button on your X1 remote, scroll to Apps, press OK, scroll to Sports tile and press OK
Whichever way you arrive, you’ll get a screen similar to the one above, to the right side on top of what you’re already watching.
From the X1 Sports app, you can:
- Filter with the games you wish to learn information on
- Browse the schedule for the games you want to watch, then simply hit “OK” when you find what you want to watch
- Catch up on scores and standings for games around the league, even while you’re watching a different game, movie or TV show
- X1 DVR subscribers can also record games straight through the app
As the proud owner of a football team (the fantasy kind), my husband is constantly checking our X1 Sports app to quickly flip back and forth between games and see how “his” players are performing.
Personally though, I use it to also quickly access Purdue football or Pacers basketball, because I never can seem to remember what station which team is shown on!
