Do you start counting the days of each year for the NFL football season once the Superbowl is over? Are you an avid fantasy football player who spends more time on your computer looking for player updates than being productive in the office? Have you ever been away from your computer when you wanted to start one of your players or forgot to update your lineup before the game? If your fantasy football league uses Yahoo Fantasy and the above set of questions applies to you, the following article will have a remedy for you.

Before the introduction of the Yahoo Fantasy app, users had to run home to a computer or risk a player being idle for the week and ruining their fantasy season. With the new Yahoo Fantasy Football app, participants no longer need to have this fear. With the app, the manager of a fantasy team can log into the app and click on the league of concern.

Once in the app, the team owner can click the roster tab and then click the “edit” button in the top right corner. Once this button is clicked, the owner can choose which players to bench and which players to start. The beauty of this app is the ability to be on a hunting ground or on a beach in paradise and still be able to upgrade your gear whenever you are within cell phone range.

The next major feature of the app is the ability to get player status updates on your iPhone. The Yahoo Fantasy Football app allows the user to get up-to-date player information, which is useful for a team owner whose player has just been injured or if you are looking for a backup for an injured starter.

The app extends this capability a step further by adding the Add Player tab. The tab allows the team owner to search for a player and add him to their roster. The feature also lets the owner know if the player is on the waiver wire or if the player is already owned by another team in the league.

The Yahoo Fantasy Football app for iPhone expands the capabilities of a fantasy football team and makes managing a fantasy football team much easier. A team owner can now be anywhere within cell phone range at any time and get the vital updates needed to remain a competitive fantasy football team owner.
