Hi all,

Does anyone know of a fantasy football app that works well with Voiceover?

Hey, I don't know if you mean normal football or american football. If you mean normal football, in Spain we play a game called Comunio, which tries to form a team with real players who are scored according to the day. For this game I can recommend the Comunio Manager application (https://itunes.apple.com/es/app/comunio-manager/id602099391?mt=8).

In order to use this application, you must first create an account at www.comunio.es

I hope I could help you.

This is an interesting question one that I am wondering as well. I have two leagues to manage in the ESPN Fantasy app this year and I find it to be completely inaccessible with Voice Over. I'm not sure if I am not looking in the right place, or if it really is not accessible. I previously used the NFL app which at least showed my team, but moving players around to the bench and making trades was not accessible via the app. The one I had most luck with was Yahoo, but that was several years ago. I can't say if it is still accessible. AS far as I am aware none of the apps are completely or nearly accessible enough to be usable with VoiceOver.

I have used the Yahoo app mentioned in the last post for about four years and, while it has some frustrations, it is well worth it. If you are a league commissioner like I ak, some things have to be done from the desktop. But if you're just managing a team, everything is doable from the phone. There are lots of public leagues out there, and if you email me before noon Central time tomorrow, there may be a spot in my league I could send you a link to. Regardless of what league you join, I'm willing to help if you have difficulty doing something. I'm a big believer in this app, and, though it could be a bit better, I can't wait for Fantasy Football to start each fall.

I just tried to email you and got a response back saying the email address was invalid. Is there another address I can use? I was trying to email you using the contact link in your profile.

Hi,
I've been using the Sky Sports Fantasy football app with my friends, and since the last few updates, it's been working really well, I'd recommend that it works brilliantly, of course there could always be improvements, but overall it is the most accessible app I found that does fantasy football.
