The introduction of MLS Season Pass has been a new experience for soccer fans in the USA. It’s a slick interface that blends right into the Apple TV experience. But, like any new piece of technology, issues can always pop up, and there can be a learning curve. So if MLS Season Pass is not working for you, here are some tips on how to navigate some issues you might encounter.
MLS Season Pass not appearing in Apple TV app
So you’ve signed up for MLS Season Pass. But, upon browsing in the Apple TV app, it’s not appearing. Assuming MLS Season Pass is available in your country, here’s some quick fixes to try:
- Check for updates
Make sure both the Apple TV app and device software are running the latest version. Running older software can prevent certain content from appearing or functioning correctly. You need to be using the latest version of iOS for MLS Season Pass to work. - Sign out of your Apple ID, then re-sign in
Logging out and back in again is a common fix for glitches, allowing the app to refresh with the most up-to-date content. - Have you tried turning it off and on again?
Just like logging out, sometimes simply restarting your device(s) fixes the problem.
