FOX Sports GO no longer operates as its own service. In 2021, the app was rebranded and its functionality split: former FOX regional sports networks moved to the Bally Sports app, while national FOX Sports channels stream in the FOX Sports app with a participating TV provider. In the FOX Sports app, authenticated viewers can watch live feeds of FOX (in eligible markets/providers), FS1, FS2, FOX Deportes, FOX Soccer Plus, and Big Ten Network (BTN) (FOX Sports Help; BTN in FOX Sports app; App Store). The Bally Sports app focuses on regional Bally Sports networks and does not include FS1/FS2 (App Store).
Access depends on what your cable, satellite, or live TV streaming package includes. If your package doesn’t carry FOX/FS1/FS2/BTN, you won’t be able to stream them in the FOX Sports app (details). For in‑market teams on Bally Sports regional networks, you can sign in with a TV provider that carries your RSN or, in participating markets/teams, subscribe directly to Bally Sports+ (availability and pricing vary by ZIP/team) — you can also authenticate with services like Hulu + Live TV.

How We Evaluated Fox Sports GO
FOX Sports GO has been retired, and today viewing is split between the FOX Sports app (national networks) and the Bally Sports app/Bally Sports+ (regional RSNs). There is no current “FOX Sports GO channel lineup” — instead, the FOX Sports app carries FOX, FS1, FS2, FOX Deportes, FOX Soccer Plus, and BTN with a participating provider, while regional games formerly on FOX RSNs are in Bally Sports (FOX Sports Help; BTN; Bally Sports support).
Regional access continues to evolve. In January 2024, Amazon agreed to invest in Diamond Sports Group (DSG) and become its primary streaming partner. In May 2024, Sinclair settled litigation with DSG for $495 million. DSG also reached agreements with the NBA and NHL for the 2024–25 seasons, stabilizing many local rights, while Comcast/Xfinity dropped Bally Sports in numerous markets on May 1, 2024. Reports indicate an impending rebrand away from the “Bally Sports” name (Bloomberg).

Key Fox Sports GO Considerations
Watch multiple games simultaneously
Multiview is now delivered mainly by your device or live TV provider rather than the old FOX Sports GO app. Leading options support 2–4 concurrent streams with a focus tile for primary audio: YouTube TV offers broad multiview on living‑room devices; the Apple TV app supports up to four live sports streams on Apple TV 4K; Fire TV’s Multi‑View enables up to four feeds for select events (Amazon Devices News); and Fubo provides multiview on Apple TV. Use these multiview features alongside the FOX Sports or Bally Sports apps where rights allow.
Navigating the interface
You’ll use two apps. The FOX Sports app surfaces live FOX, FS1, FS2, FOX Deportes, FOX Soccer Plus, and BTN (with provider authentication; market eligibility applies — see also BTN in FOX Sports app). The Bally Sports app focuses on your local Bally Sports RSN and team feeds; availability and blackouts depend on your ZIP and team rights. For direct‑to‑consumer markets, Bally Sports+ lets you check ZIP‑based eligibility and pricing before purchase. Note that linear carriage can vary by provider (e.g., Bally Sports networks are not on Comcast/Xfinity as of May 1, 2024; source).
Switch between devices
Both apps are on major platforms (iOS/Android, web, Apple TV, Roku, Fire TV, Chromecast, many smart TVs). Video quality depends on your device capabilities, codecs, DRM, and network. As a practical baseline, target about 5 Mbps for HD and 15–25 Mbps for 4K/UHD on supported devices (Netflix; Disney+). 4K/HDR delivery typically relies on HEVC, with growing AV1 support on newer TVs and streamers; premium formats (Dolby Vision/Atmos) are device‑ and plan‑dependent across services (Netflix UHD requirements; Prime Video Dolby Vision/Atmos policy; Max plan features; Hulu 4K devices; YouTube HDR devices; industry codec adoption). FOX frequently offers select events in 4K via participating providers (availability varies by event/device; see FOX Sports Help). Simultaneous‑stream limits are set by your TV provider for the FOX Sports app and by plan for Bally Sports+; check FOX Sports Help and Bally Sports Help for current limits and device policies.
The Bottom Line
FOX Sports GO is gone. To stream national FOX Sports channels, use the FOX Sports app with a participating pay‑TV or live TV streaming login (what you can watch), and for former FOX regional networks use the Bally Sports app or, where offered, Bally Sports+. Regional availability can change due to carriage disputes (e.g., Comcast/Xfinity), league rights, and ongoing DSG restructuring that includes an Amazon partnership and a likely rebrand (Variety; Reuters; Bloomberg; Reuters). Always verify your market, ZIP‑based eligibility, and provider entitlements before subscribing, and confirm per‑event 4K availability and simultaneous‑stream limits for your devices.
