Amazing
Giving me and the boys a chance to play LCS Fantasy this past split was amazing. We had a blast from start to finish. It encouraged us to all get together on discord every weekend and watch some games together like a football Sunday with your local friends. Wouldn’t change a thing but would like to see two things added:
1. A trophy case on your profile(so a profile in general) to show off your weekly trophies, such as lowest points in a win and all those, as well as a gold silver and bronze for the playoffs.
2. We decided to have everyone buy in $5 before the draft and winner take all so just having the option on the app to have a buy in before the season starts would be awesome. Especially since we all enjoyed it so much we are upping our buy in for next splitShow lessLCS>Worlds
App Tries to be Too fancy
Please make it clearer how to add a second bracket in March Madness. Our whole group had trouble figuring out you had to swipe the bracket image to create a new one. Just make a small plus icon on the right of the first bracket you create or imply you can swipe left and right with a micro animation. The little tiny dots and tiny tiny plus icon is impossible to see. You have to accidentally swipe to figure out that you can add another bracket. Also please add a Full Desktop version next year. When we are doing research and such, would be way easier to just fill out the bracket in the browser. Another issue is getting into the settings. When you are a few screens into the settings you can’t quickly return to the Home Screen at all. Needs a small home icon or dock on the bottom of the screen to navigate back to the main bracket and pool page. App could be great but the developers really need to do some UX research and testing. App is actually overly complicated and confusing.Show lesscubesolver541
Best Fantasy App out there, but still waiting for a few features
I have used this app exclusively for my fantasy leagues now for about 3 years and I love this App! It does everything I need in a fantasy football app it provides great information on players and the interface is the amazing. I enjoy the characters that they use as it makes the experience feel more interactive and the customization available for scoring, roaster sizes, etc. is second to none.
I am still waiting for a a few key aspects to this App though, the two I am really waiting for are auction drafts and a tablet App. I have herd for a couple of years now that Sleeper is going to implement auction drafts and each year I am left disappointed. When it comes to a tablet App I have not herd anything new on that front and am still waiting for more information.
This App is still amazing regardless of the few shortcomings it may have.Show lessrystuv
LCS fantasy review (so far)
So far my experience with the app hasn’t started fully tell the actually season starts. I’m loving everything about it from the drafting to the amount of setting you can costumes. I just have a few suggestions that would possible be a game changer for the LCS point of view
1) there should be teams you pick (for extra points) like if the team wins or if the team losses or how many towers the team gets, ETC there a lot opportunity wise you could do with adding teams like how you choose a teams defense in Fantasy NFL.
2) shouldn’t rift Herald (Shelly) be worth some points getting? As well as getting multiple barons possible?
3) A bench feature would be nice where you could choice up to 2-3 anyrole/ any team just there in case you need to swap a player before it starts or something or if you just want to hold a player to see how he dose for a few games.
4) this ones a long shot but worth a suggestion
Would it be possible to combine the LCS/LEC together for more player selection? I understand why you split the two up, But for people who have 10 or more people joining there draft just thought it should be a setting thing you could do. (Of corse there’s other leagues you could add if necessary as well like the LCK or LPL, ETC)
Over all the app look good in my eyes just like to see more opportunities to really dive deep into the LCS fantasy. Thank you for this app I’ve been needing this!Show lessAqworlds12345676
Vastly disappointing
I switched over to this app because I heard it was by far the best fantasy app. I figured I’d try it, and I have to say I don’t get the hype at all.
The UI is pretty glitzy but can also be a bit confusing. But the part that really annoys me is the updates and news is awful. Updates always come late, even well after other prominent sources have broken player/team news. The game tracking often lags, and there’s no good way to track a game live.
On top of this, I’ve found the insight to be awful. I don’t rely much on fantasy app insight, but it’s annoying to have your app consistently tell you things like a guy is the new starting RB and projected 12 points and then in reality he’s still a backup and gets a few carries. Not sure why, but their intel seems way off, their projections don’t make sense, and even though this doesn’t matter the win % is a nonsensical stat that just seems to flip from 10% to 90% depending on who scored the last point.
I know this is the “hot new thing” because it has a fancy interface and is an exclusively fantasy-oriented app, but honestly it’s just not that great when it comes to practicality. If I have to go to other sources to track games, get basic injury updates, and look at things as simple as who a new starter might be in case of injury, then what’s the point of this app?Show lessUberEatsUser
Mediocre at best
I’ve done fantasy sports for years across multiple platforms and this is my first year using sleeper. It has all the standard features. But some issues I have with this app is the UI and how unintuitive it is to use.
Swiping left or right to see player transactions and free agency? No indicator on how to do basic actions like add or drop a player easily. The fact that I cannot edit my line up for future weeks because this week has games active makes no sense. Simply swapping out a player on IR for a player put on IR was not allowed due to ‘games in progress’. Why? They have no connections to each other. The changes were for the next week... also IR slot changes were with players on the bench, not even in the starting line up. Little details like this goes a long way when you are actively playing the FA pool and trying to clear up space due to injuries.Show lessxillist
Way more complicated than it needs to be
This is one of the least user-friendly apps I’ve ever encountered. For one thing, there is more than one menu. Plus, there are no indicators for where those menus are located. The mascots are cute, but they take up a lot of real estate on a mobile screen which means that the target area for any action is really small. For reference, I am using an iPhone X S, and I don’t have Andre the Giant hands.
I also find that it is really slow to update which wouldn’t be too bad if it didn’t display inaccurate information while it is updating.
I am not the commissioner of my league, so I can’t speak to that side of the app. Our draft did not go well because the app wouldn’t let us start it, and 12 millennials couldn’t figure it out. We wound up having to tell the commissioner who we wanted to draft and he made the changes. It’s a good thing we took screenshots of the board because the whole draft was lost and the commissioner had to rebuild everyone’s teams anyways.
I’m pretty sure my league is going to switch to a different app next year. This one is a nightmare.Show lesschill75

Hi there, We sincerely apologize for the trouble you’ve had with the app. We would love to know what we can do to improve the app, the user experience is definitely a priority for us. So anything that we can do to improve it please email us at support@sleeper.app and we’ll definitely look into changing/adding it. Again so sorry that your experience on Sleeper hasn’t been good.Too many bugs
I love the app don’t get me wrong but there are extremely frequent bugs, I have the app on auto update but like today all my leagues are showing no assigned rosters and we are less than 2 weeks from the start of the season. Other issues have been projected points were all inaccurate for IDP players. Also with the trending function it will show up or down, but then click on the player and the last update and news on the player could be months old. It’s training camp yet many players still have latest news listed from free agency or last season. I love the lay out and functionality but player info, point issues and continuous bugs make me hate this app at times. Yahoo and NFL have much better and up to date info on players. However sleeper does have the absolute best trade function out of all the platforms. This could easily be the best of the best but it’s just not there yet. I shouldn’t have to do an online search for latest news on players. Kendrick Bourne is had an upward trend for 2 or 3 weeks but as of yesterday the lastest news on him is 2 or 3 months old.Show lessChefBrendan

Can you please update your app to the latest and try it out? Please feel free to reach out to us at support@sleeper.app. Thank you for reviewing!Best platform. Light years ahead!
Sleeper is easily the best platform for fantasy football. I moved my league from ESPN to Sleeper last year. Myself and the league as a whole were completely blown away with how amazing, thorough, and efficient Sleeper is. Every feature is easy to use and find. Nothing is confusing about the application. Although there are annoying bugs from time to time, you can chat with live support and they always reply within a couple minutes.
I was extremely excited to see other fantasy sports (basketball, March madness, etc.) be introduced to the app, but then COVID-19 killed that.
I do not know how people still use ESPN, Yahoo or another platform. Give Sleeper a try and you will not be disappointed!
The only feature I wish Sleeper had for fantasy football was the ability to individually track each player’s transactions between the owners. For example, you can see when they were drafted, each time they were put on waivers/claimed from waivers, involved in a trade, etc. Hopefully someday they add this!
Thanks for everything Sleeper team!! I am already addicted to fantasy football and you made it even worse!Show lessNateTheGreat35
Please read
Every year I do a league in every major platform. NFL, ESPN, Yahoo!, CBS, and Fantrax are all sites in which I am in a league in. Up until 2 years ago Yahoo! was hands down the absolute BEST fantasy site/app out there I knew of. Everything I needed was there and it was a night and day difference between its competitors. That is however, until I discovered Sleeper. I don’t know how I stumbled upon the app 2 years ago. I have been blown away ever since. This app not only gives me the most up to date info on everything fantasy football wise it also has the cleanest and most crisp feel to it. Everything is so smooth with the app and the details that they go into on the matchup screen and my team page are second to none. Using other sites and apps almost makes me feel like I’m using a computer from 1997 in how much more cluttered they are and not as up to date. Honestly making the move and bringing my league to be on the sleeper app has to be the best decision I have made fantasy football wise!Show lessAustinTheMaleNurse
