Quick answer

  • The Cricfy TV live score app is usually “CricFy TV : Live Cricket TV”, an iPhone score app by developer Nayan Akbari.
  • It shows scores, ball-by-ball updates, news and ICC rankings. It does not stream live channels.
  • It is not the same as the sideloaded Cricfy TV streaming APK.
  • For free, reliable scores on any phone, use ESPNcricinfo, Cricbuzz or the official ICC app.

What does “Cricfy TV live score” mean?

Search data shows two big groups of people looking for Cricfy and live scores. Some want the score app from the Apple App Store that uses the CricFy name. Others are Cricfy TV streaming app users who want the score shown on screen during a match. The two products share a name but have very little else in common, which is why it pays to know which one you are installing.

The App Store score app: “CricFy TV : Live Cricket TV”

On the Apple App Store, an app called CricFy TV : Live Cricket TV is published by developer Nayan Akbari. Despite “TV” in its name, its own description focuses on scores: real-time match scores, ball-by-ball updates, the latest sports news and official ICC rankings for batters, bowlers, all-rounders and teams.

Comparison of the Cricfy TV APK and the CricFy TV score app on the App Store
Same name, different products: the App Store score app and the Cricfy TV APK.

Is it the same as the Cricfy TV streaming APK?

No. The Cricfy TV streaming app is an Android APK distributed through websites, not through Google Play or the App Store. It re-streams live TV channels without a licence, and Google Play Protect has been removing it from Android TVs since early 2026. The App Store score app does none of that. It is installed from Apple’s store and only shows score data.
