    Default New Yahoo Fantasy app

    Updated the app and it was a brand new layout. Totally different

    Not sure how I feel yet but considering I just posted all of my yearly polls for my league members to vote on for the upcoming nfl season....and there is no message board in the app....pretty annoyed

    I just added a feedback that I don't like how the icons I use the most (Matchup, league, players) are at the top now. Makes it really hard to one handed accessibility.

    I hate it. I personally use the Watch List to compare stats of my roster players to free agents or potential trade targets and with the new layout, it doesn't show stats under the Watch List tab! How stupid is that? I hope there is still some tweaking to be done.

    If you go to "Send Feedback" and then "I have a suggestion" it takes you directly to the feedback page where the app is already getting some pretty bad heat. The top ranked feedback is "Change it back" haha. Followed by:

    2. Change the order of teams shown
    3. Message board
    4. White background
    5. Update is terrible

    I've tried to write a review via iTunes but it wouldn't post and then it would disappear. I wrote three different ratings and then gave up.

    Do it from the app. It's actually one of the only good parts of the new app.

    Done & done. Hopefully they address these complaints soon. There isn't a positive review or comment on there.

    I'm not a huge fan of managing my teams from an app anyways (I like having the full screen view), so this doesn't affect me too much. Even on my mobile I'll use safari and get the full webpage. I didn't even like the old app.

    Is it me or there is no sort button for the ranks (initial and actual) in the player section. Typically, you can sort the players via their rank but now it seems it's only sorted based on the adds and drops of the given players? This is how it was this morning, not sure if it's been updated since; guess I'll check later.
    Keeper league 14 teams (H2H, 20 active players keep 16 NHLers, 16 minors)

    W- Forsberg, Batherson, Nichuskin, Tuch, Konecny, Maccelli, Sharangovich, Bertuzzi, Kaliyev, Neighbours, Reichel

    Nope you are correct. Another trip to the feedback section for me.

    I rarely use the app myself as well. I just go to their website through my phone if I need to make changes. I dont even remember what the old app looks like so I dont even know if the new one is better or worse.

    Well....as if there was any doubt....here is the article on their main fantasy page proclaiming they have a new app because football is right around the corner.

    http://sports.yahoo.com/news/dominat...104.html?nhp=1

    But still, why not just create a whole new freaking app when something as simple as a message board isn't there. Baseball just got the shaft much like hockey always does.

    The ONLY good thing to come out of this is what I created a post for a week ago:

    pdates as we get closer to football season including the addition of our casual games like Survival and College and Pro Pick’em
