Not sure what’s on? Start here.

Tuning in through apps like Spectrum TV, Xfinity Stream, ESPN, Peacock or YouTube TV? Xumo Stream Box helps bring your sports viewing experience together in one place. From football and basketball to baseball, hockey and soccer, Sports Hub helps put the biggest moments front and center.

Sports Hub brings live games, upcoming matchups, and a wide range of sports content together in one place, so there's always something to explore.

Getting to the action is easy. Just press the microphone button on your Xumo remote and say “Sports.”

Prefer to browse? Select Sports from the navigation row below your apps on the Xumo home screen.

From there, see what’s live now, check what’s coming up or keep scrolling for replays, highlights, sports movies, shows, podcasts and more.

Your team. One easy place to find it.

Want to know when your team plays next? Just ask.

Say your team name into your Xumo voice remote to find the team page. From a Team Page, you can see live and upcoming games, highlights, scores, news and related coverage from your team all in one place.

And if it’s a team you come back to often, add it as a favorite.

Select + Add on the Team Page and it’ll show up in My List, making it easy to get back to whenever you want.

Try it: Say your favorite team's name → open the Team Page → select + Add.

Game on? Just say the team.

Here’s where voice really earns its spot in the starting lineup.

If your team is playing live, try saying the team name into your Xumo voice remote.

When there's a live game on, saying your team's name can help get you there faster, including tuning directly to eligible live games. No need to remember where the game is airing or jump between apps to find it.

Try saying:

  • “Yankees”
  • “Cowboys”
  • “Lakers”

If there's no live game available, Xumo will take you to the most relevant team, event or search experience to help you keep exploring.
