The App takes a league's standings, tiebreaker rules, and remaining schedule to analyze its playoff/title race. Imports data from popular fantasy sports sites (ESPN*, Sleeper, Yahoo*, Fleaflicker, MyFantasy, Fantrax, FPL) and a companion Google Sheets template. Premium users can also import many pro leagues including the NFL and Premier League. (* Commish-setting 'publicly viewable' must be on) Basic access provides approximate odds for each team to get a playoff spot and win their division (if applicable). Premium access includes the famous "Paths" listings of what needs to happen for teams to clinch a spot or be eliminated (e.g. "Bears clinch a playoff spot with a win and a Lions loss"), definitive clinched and eliminated determinations, minimum wins needed, number of wins that would guarantee a spot, projected targets to aim for, a PDF report to print/share the analysis, a Median scoring option, the ability to create "what-if" scenarios to see how the playoff picture would look based on desired picks for upcoming games, the option to include additional playoff spots based on points for otherwise leftover teams, and matchup predictions by "Fred" with help from FantasyPros (available for most supported platforms, ff only). Additional features available on all levels include the ability to edit team details and customizable set-up to handle many different league rules. Tiebreakers that can be incorporated into the calculations include head-to-head, division record, conference record, points for/against/difference, goals difference, and all-play. "Best-in-division" rules (e.g. MyFantasy) are supported. The analysis provides excellent material for commish newsletters. Basic league requirements for the App to perform as intended: 1) Play head-to-head where each team in a game gets either a win, loss, tie, or League-Points (e.g. Soccer). 2) Teams play the same number of games. 3) Standings sorted firstly by winning percentage or League Points (e.g. Soccer). 4) Leagues with "doubleheader" schedules can be accommodated. There may be limitations depending on league size. 5) The Median scoring option works with leagues of 12 teams or less. See website for additional limitations. Due to the limitless number of league set-ups from some hosting sites, confirm that basic functionality for your league(s) works before upgrading to premium access. Important notes: 1) There is a reason this type of App exists nowhere else. The formulas, methods, and processes used can use a tremendous amount of computing resources from a device for sometimes an extended amount of time. It is completely the user's risk and discretion to subject a device to this type of use. 2) For maximum ease of use the App retrieves data from third party (e.g. hosting sites) APIs. The hosting sites control access to such data and, while changes are not anticipated, there is no guarantee or representation that a particular API's access will continue for any length of time. 3) The developer has taken great pains to adapt the App to the differing rules used by various fantasy sports hosting sites such as those that sort standings and apply tiebreakers. However, some sites do not clearly explain their methods (e.g. for applying tiebreakers) and there may be instances in which the App's methods do not match exactly to those of a particular hosting site and no representation of complete accuracy in calculations can be made. If any, such differences should be negligible and not impact the overall enjoyment of the App. 4) With the infinite number of league options and scenarios the App may be asked to calculate, complete testing is impossible. It is believed everything is in order but no warranty or representation is made that the App will function completely as intended for any specific league.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: DynastyDealer at 100% against Playoff Computer's 50%. DynastyDealer also leads on monetization model (free vs freemium) and ratings volume (7 vs 1). Playoff Computer's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.4). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Playoff Computer sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $4.99 per year and DynastyDealer sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $5.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Playoff Computer holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: DynastyDealer has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Playoff Computer's written reviews are positive against 100% of DynastyDealer's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 19, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
