MLS Season Pass is your all-access portal to all things Major League Soccer. It lives on the Apple TV app (which is different than the Apple TV hardware, or the Apple TV+ subscription service). It costs $15 a month or $100 for the season if you don’t have Apple TV+, or $13 a month or $80 for the season if you do. And as a reminder, if you’re a T-Mobile subscriber, you can get MLS Season Pass for free this season as part of the T-Mobile Tuesdays promotion. Just be sure to sign up by March 14.

An MLS Season Pass subscription gets you every single minute of every single game, plus the playoffs. You’ll also get MLS Next and MLS Next Pro games, so you can check in on the MLS developmental leagues, too. Plus there are pregame and post-game shows, the MLS 360 wraparound show for highlights as they happen, and features on your favorite players and teams.

MLS Season Pass is available on pretty much any modern streaming platform, from Roku and Amazon Fire TV to Google TV and Android TV, and of course, Apple TV. It’s also available on Android and iOS devices, on various smart TVs, and in a web browser. You’ll just need an Apple ID, and the Apple TV app.

Apple’s MLS Season Pass adds Catch Up feature for key plays
MLS Season Pass.

Apple today announced a new feature for MLS Season Pass that makes it simple catch up on what you missed in a match if you joined it midstream.

The aptly named “Catch Up” feature is exactly what it sounds like. Available today for those running public beta software on their Apple TV boxes, iPhones, iPads, and Macs, and later this summer for those on the production track, Catch Up uses machine learning to automatically spot and clip key plays in a match.
