You can set up a FOX Sports download on a Windows 11 or Windows 10 PC in about a minute. Open foxsports.com in Microsoft Edge, install it as an app, and it gets its own window, Start menu entry and taskbar icon.
On a Mac, Safari adds the same site to the Dock. iPhone, iPad and Android phones get the full FOX Sports app free from the App Store and Google Play.
Below are the official links, the setup steps for each device, how TV provider sign-in and FOX One work, and fixes for streams that will not start.

There is no Mac app. The App Store listing covers iPhone, iPad, Apple TV and Apple Watch only.
| Your Apple device | What to do | What it needs |
|---|---|---|
| Mac on macOS Sonoma 14 or later | Open foxsports.com in Safari, then Share and Add to Dock | Safari |

Install the FOX Sports app on iPhone, iPad and Android
The phone and tablet apps are free and carry scores, alerts, live play-by-play and live streams.
- On an iPhone or iPad, open App Store and search for FOX Sports: Watch Live Games.
- Check that the seller reads FOX Sports Interactive, then tap Get.
- On Android, open Google Play, open the FOX Sports listing from Fox Digital Services, LLC and tap Install.
- Open the app and pick your favorite teams, players and leagues.
- Allow notifications if you want score alerts.
- Sign in with your TV provider to unlock live games.
The iPhone and iPad build needs iOS 18.0 or later. Google Play marks the Android app as containing ads and in-app purchases.
Is FOX Sports free?
The app costs nothing on any device. Live games need a paid source behind them.
The app and website are free, but live games need a TV provider sign-in or a FOX One subscription. The App Store and Google Play both list FOX Sports as a free install, and news, scores, stories and highlights need no plan. Live events are marked as available with a TV subscription. Viewers without a provider can start FOX One from the Watch 3 days free button on foxsports.com. Any site selling a cracked FOX Sports build or a lifetime pass is not selling anything real.
Check your cable, satellite or live TV streaming package first. If it carries FOX, FS1 or BTN, your provider login unlocks those channels at no extra cost.
Should you use FOX Sports or FOX One?
Both come from Fox, and both stream FOX sports events. They answer different situations.
Use FOX Sports if you have a TV provider; use FOX One if you do not. FOX Sports unlocks live games through a TV provider sign-in and adds scores, stories, odds and studio shows. FOX One is a separate subscription app from Fox Digital Services that bundles FOX sports, FOX News and FOX entertainment shows, with no provider needed. foxsports.com offers a 3-day free trial of FOX One from its live page.
FOX One installs on its own from the App Store. It is not an upgrade inside the FOX Sports app.
