Sports app screenshots that name another app
Another product is named in the words. Naming another product places the app beside something the reader already knows: an integration, a place to import from, or a comparison.
From the top 100 free Sports apps on the US App Store, read on October 9, 2026. Screenshots are the developers’ own, shown from Apple’s servers with a link to each app.
The numbers
3 of the 558 Sports screenshots read (1%) do this, across 3 of the top 100 apps (3%). 0 of the top ten do it (0%), against 3 of the other 90 (3%): the top ten do it about as often as the rest. Of the 23 categories read so far, Sports is 5th for this. It is most common in Finance (9% of apps) and least common in Weather (0%).
