About SportsWise: Sports Explainer
New in this version: More sports and leagues — WNBA, cricket (T20, ODI, and Test), Premier League, La Liga, and five rugby competitions. Soccer, rugby, and cricket now have a league picker with an "All Matches" view that combines every league into one board. Plus smarter performance (the overlay now skips updates when nothing new has happened) and the overlay remembers where you dragged it. SportsWise: Sports Explainer turns live sports into something everyone can follow. Whether you are new to a sport, watching with family members who do not know the rules, or following a game in a second language, SportsWise adds a simple on-screen overlay that explains what just happened — in plain language, in real time, while you watch. You do not need to pause the game. You do not need to search the web. You do not need to already know what a double play, an offside call, a pick-and-roll, or a penalty kill means. SportsWise tells you, automatically, as the game unfolds. FREE AND PRO SportsWise is free to use — no account needed. The free tier includes live explanations, Ask Anything, and more, with daily usage limits.
