How to Download and Use the CBS Sports App for Live Scores
I remember the first time I tried to follow a PBA finals game while traveling - it was Game 6 of the finals last season, and I was desperately refreshing my browser every thirty seconds while Tropang Giga was playing. That's when I truly appreciated having the CBS Sports app properly set up on my phone. The experience taught me that in today's fast-paced sports environment, staying updated requires more than occasional browser checks - it demands a dedicated solution that delivers real-time information seamlessly.
Downloading the CBS Sports app takes less than two minutes, which surprised me given its comprehensive features. For iOS users, it's available through the App Store, while Android users can find it on Google Play - both platforms offering the app for free, though with optional in-app purchases. I've noticed the Android version tends to be slightly larger at around 85MB compared to iOS's 78MB, but both install quickly on modern smartphones. What impressed me most during installation was how intuitive the setup process felt - within moments of launching the app for the first time, I had customized my score alerts for basketball leagues including the PBA.
The true value revealed itself during that crucial Game 6 when I could track every possession while away from my television. The app's live scoring feature updates every 8-10 seconds during active games, providing near-instantaneous statistical updates that often beat television broadcasts by noticeable margins. I recall specifically watching Castro's recovery progress through the app's news integration - the same platform that delivered my live scores also provided the update about him visiting Tropang Giga practice last Tuesday, just before the championship-deciding game. This integration between statistical tracking and editorial content creates what I consider the app's strongest feature: context-rich sports coverage that understands fans want more than just numbers.
Having used numerous sports apps over the years, I've found CBS Sports' notification system particularly refined. You can customize alerts for final scores, game start times, or key moments - though I typically disable the latter during important games to avoid spoilers when I'm watching delayed broadcasts. The app serves approximately 12 million monthly active users according to their latest transparency report, which speaks to its reliability during peak moments like championship games. During last season's PBA finals, the app maintained perfect uptime despite what I estimate was a 40% increase in user traffic specific to Philippine basketball coverage.
What separates this from simpler score-trackers is the depth of statistical analysis available. Beyond basic scores, I can access real-time player efficiency ratings, team statistics comparisons, and even predictive analytics that estimate win probability - features I find particularly engaging during close games. The interface balances this complexity with clean design, though I occasionally wish they'd offer more customization options for the main dashboard. Still, for most users including myself, the default layout provides immediate access to the most crucial information without overwhelming visual clutter.
The app's multi-sport capability means I'm not just tracking basketball - during baseball season, I can seamlessly switch between following the PBA and MLB without needing separate applications. This versatility comes in handy during international sporting events, though basketball remains my primary focus. I've noticed the soccer coverage has improved dramatically over the past year, with Champions League matches now receiving the same detailed treatment as NBA games.
Reflecting on my experience during that pivotal Game 6, having immediate access to both scores and contextual news about player developments like Castro's recovery created a more immersive following experience than I could have achieved through traditional media. The convenience of receiving personalized alerts while maintaining access to comprehensive statistical breakdowns represents what modern sports fandom requires - informed engagement regardless of physical location. For any serious sports enthusiast, particularly those following international leagues across time zones, investing twenty minutes to properly configure the CBS Sports app pays dividends throughout the season.
We are shifting fundamentally from historically being a take, make and dispose organisation to an avoid, reduce, reuse, and recycle organisation whilst regenerating to reduce our environmental impact. We see significant potential in this space for our operations and for our industry, not only to reduce waste and improve resource use efficiency, but to transform our view of the finite resources in our care.
Looking to the Future
By 2022, we will establish a pilot for circularity at our Goonoo feedlot that builds on our current initiatives in water, manure and local sourcing. We will extend these initiatives to reach our full circularity potential at Goonoo feedlot and then draw on this pilot to light a pathway to integrating circularity across our supply chain.
The quality of our product and ongoing health of our business is intrinsically linked to healthy and functioning ecosystems. We recognise our potential to play our part in reversing the decline in biodiversity, building soil health and protecting key ecosystems in our care. This theme extends on the core initiatives and practices already embedded in our business including our sustainable stocking strategy and our long-standing best practice Rangelands Management program, to a more a holistic approach to our landscape.
We are the custodians of a significant natural asset that extends across 6.4 million hectares in some of the most remote parts of Australia. Building a strong foundation of condition assessment will be fundamental to mapping out a successful pathway to improving the health of the landscape and to drive growth in the value of our Natural Capital.
Our Commitment
We will work with Accounting for Nature to develop a scientifically robust and certifiable framework to measure and report on the condition of natural capital, including biodiversity, across AACo’s assets by 2023. We will apply that framework to baseline priority assets by 2024.
Looking to the Future
By 2030 we will improve landscape and soil health by increasing the percentage of our estate achieving greater than 50% persistent groundcover with regional targets of:
– Savannah and Tropics – 90% of land achieving >50% cover
– Sub-tropics – 80% of land achieving >50% perennial cover
– Grasslands – 80% of land achieving >50% cover
– Desert country – 60% of land achieving >50% cover
