Multiview allows users to watch up to four games at the same time in a split-screen interface.
Start watching a game, and then within a video player, use the Add Game button to add another stream alongside it. The feature only works with games streamed by Apple through the TV app; right now, that means Friday Night Baseball or MLS soccer.
The addition of a multiview capability brings the Apple TV app up to par with other split-screen experienced offered by rival services like ESPN and fuboTV.
It will be particularly useful for MLS Season Pass subscribers, in which the league has about a dozen games scheduled for this Saturday, many of which overlap in their running times.
MLS Season Pass includes a hosted whip-around show called “MLS 360,” but many viewers prefer having control to tune into the live games of their choice and easily be able to switch between. The Multiview feature is the solution for those people.
