Change the profile setting in advance
The current instructions use the Show Scores switch in profile settings. Turning it off hides the platform’s score display, and the provider says profile settings apply across devices. Confirm that you are using the profile intended for the replay before changing the switch.
A shared account can have a viewer who wants live results and another who wants to watch later. Agree which profile and device each person will use instead of repeatedly reversing a setting during the match. Make the change before browsing match tiles, because a setting cannot undo a result already seen.
Close the gaps outside the score tile
The help says highlights and recaps remain visible, and phone notifications can contain score updates. Treat those as separate editorial and operating-system surfaces. Hiding the platform’s banner score does not instruct every other application, news feed or messaging group to keep the result secret.
For a practical replay evening, decide how you will reach the full match without browsing short-form clips first. Check notification previews on the device you will carry during the day. If other sports apps are installed, inspect their own settings separately; this TOD switch does not establish their behaviour.
Test the scope without opening the result
After changing the profile option, inspect an ordinary match tile rather than deliberately opening a results page. Record whether the expected score field is hidden. That is a limited interface observation and does not certify every image, commentary track or programme title as spoiler-free.
If a result still appears where the provider says it should be hidden, report the screen, profile and exact placement. A score printed within a highlight title is different from the live-score field described by the setting. This distinction lets support assess a specific defect instead of receiving a broad claim that all spoiler protection failed. Keep the replay title and scheduled viewing time in your own note so you can return directly to the intended event.
