You really have to be at a keyboard and mouse to operate the draft board right now, but when you can keep up on the go, a lot of the frustration about the time it takes for the draft will go away.
I think that's my biggest beef, personally. Even if I set my draft board, all it takes is 4 players to be taken for my potential player strategy to change. So, if I want to make sure I get what I want, I have to clear my draft board to keep it from auto picking one by accident and manually draft him.I have to be in front of my computer to do that because I have a PC, tablet and mobile phone. The interface behaves the same on the tablet as on my phone, leaving only my PC. On Sunday, I sat by my computer for 8 hours waiting to pick. 8 hours and 40 minutes later, I watched my pick go off the board from the Olive Garden, on my phone. I get that part of it is the beta aspect, and as always, I'm just giving feedback.
So, long story short, this is a beta tester request to prioritize the mobile app!

I get that it's harder to use a smartphone at the moment, but it's not impossible. You can't rearrange your draft queue, but you can still add and remove names from it. If you would have put 3 or 4 guys into your queue from your PC before leaving for Olive Garden, you would have probably gotten the guy you wanted. But even if someone a few picks ahead of you caused you to change your strategy or if more than 3 or 4 picks went off the board rapidly and left you with no one in your queue, you would have had an hour to check in and draft the guy you wanted.
As long as you leave the autodraft unchecked, when you get on the clock, you can remove everyone from your queue and just add the guy you want before checking autodraft and refreshing to make your pick.
