NFL Fantasy Football

Well where do I begin. I have been using this app with one of my leagues for the last six years, and for the most part have enjoyed its service. But this season, that enjoyment has completely gone by the wayside. To start off the season we had trouble scheduling the draft. We scheduled the draft online and made roster adjustments in league settings through their website, but once we all logged onto the app none of the roster adjustments had been made. Additionally, the app also said that no draft date had been scheduled. Although, eventually we were able to get everything to work properly…a week after we initially scheduled the draft 🫥. Since then numerous league members have been randomly signed out of the app and the only way we have been able to sign back in is by deleting and reinstalling the app. However, even after that troubleshoot some league members still have not been able to get in and now have rosters and teams they do not have access to. So needless to say, if you’re looking for a fun football season and an app that helps to facilitate the fun of fantasy football and gives you and your league mates no additionally headaches…look elsewhere, because this app is just one giant headache and a total inconvenience waiting to happen.

This is my first year using the NFL’s official fantasy football app, in the past I have used the Yahoo and ESPN apps. Forcing advertisements before videos is an automatic loss of a star for me. If they want to monetize their app, I would be more than willing to pay an annual fee in exchange for an ad-free experience. This app is solid in terms of scouting and injury updates. It has an “RZ” indicator to show when a player is inside the opponent’s Red Zone. What would be nice would be if they would add an indication of where the team is, and what situation. 3rd & 3, 17 yard line, that kind of thing, or an indication of what the last play was, rush or pass or penalty, and what the yardage was. The ESPN app did have a feature like this the last time I used it. Their app is the best I have used in roughly 15 years of fantasy football experience. I was unable to use this app for our draft this year, and fortunately I had a laptop with me or my team would have been auto-drafted. All other players in my league reported this same frustrating error, resulting in a couple of teams being auto-drafted in a league with a cash prize. Absolutely unacceptable. Overall the app is fine, it works, but it doesn’t stand out to me as being close to best in class. It loses stars for the advertising, for limited situational information during games, and for the app’s failure during our league’s draft. I will use it again next year for one league, but with this being the official NFL Fantasy Football app it should be head and shoulders better than the other options and work smoothly in all areas. As it stands right now there are better apps for fantasy football.

I’ve been using this app for just three years and I love it! I’ve done well with how they keep you updated with injuries and even scouting reports. Adding and subtracting players is simple and although it’s a waiver it’s always been fair which makes it all the more competitive for teams at the bottom. Me and my friends play and the commercials are right, some of my friends who I barely have much to say to unfortunately, fantasy football, it has arguing But the good kind! Competitive we all are though different and some of my friends who know little about football who are regular basement dwellers every year can give you an L with the right add/subtr. or start/sit lineup. It’s embarrassing but very satisfying for them which keeps them playing. I have nothing but great things to say about this app! You might find your complainers but they have made it their job to find something wrong just because it’s a review.
