TRACK EVERY MINUTE. BALANCE EVERY PLAYER. Playing Time is the easiest way for coaches, parents, and team managers to track and balance playing time across every player on the team — in real time, during live games. LIVE GAME TRACKING Start a game and tap players on or off the court. Every second is tracked automatically with color-coded heat bars that show exactly who's getting the most and least time. No clipboard, no spreadsheet, no guesswork. SMART SUBSTITUTIONS Get AI-powered substitution suggestions based on playing time balance, bench wait times, and stint duration. Run 1-for-1 swaps or bulk substitutions with a single tap. Undo any sub instantly if you change your mind. WORKS FOR ANY SPORT Basketball, soccer, football, hockey, lacrosse, volleyball, baseball, and more. Configure the number of players on the field, period structure, clock direction, and specialized positions (goalkeeper, quarterback, goalie) for each team. TEAM MANAGEMENT Create unlimited teams with custom colors, logos, rosters, and game settings. Import schedules from iCal calendar feeds. Track player jersey numbers, positions, and availability. GAME HISTORY & ANALYTICS Every game is saved automatically. Review detailed recaps with per-player time breakdowns, period-by-period stats, and AI-generated insights. Track season averages and trends across all games. RANKINGS & TIERS See at a glance who's playing the most and least with tiered and forced ranking views. Color-coded gold/silver/bronze tiers make imbalances obvious. QUICK START MODE Jump straight into tracking without setting up a team first. Perfect for pickup games, tryouts, or filling in as a guest coach. Import Quick Start games into a team later. DESIGNED FOR GAME DAY Large tap targets for cold fingers. Screen stays awake during games. Fast-forward through halftime. Works completely offline — no internet required.

Track your matchup from the Lock Screen with Live Activities. YOUR WEEK, IN ONE REPORT Open a completed week to see the story of your league at a glance: scores, standings movement, best and worst performances, closest games, biggest blowouts, roster efficiency, top players, bench standouts, and weekly awards. BUILT FOR THE WAY YOUR LEAGUE PLAYS MFL Pro adapts to your league’s rules and scoring, not a one-size-fits-all template. Follow standard redraft, dynasty, keeper, auction, best ball, superflex, IDP and true-position defense, victory-points and all-play, guillotine/chop, division and conference, salary-cap and contract, deluxe/multi-copy, Survivor and confidence pools, and contest/set-em formats. League-specific standings, positions, lineup rules, waiver modes, and scoring stay in context. STAY AHEAD Choose helpful on-device reminders for waiver runs, league deadlines, kickoff windows, and weekly recaps. Notifications open directly to the relevant place in your league and respect your device’s timezone. DRAFT DAY, IN YOUR POCKET Follow live draft status and the pick train, scan the full board, search and filter available players, build a private device-local queue, and track your picks and roster construction. Basic and Pro members can make confirmed on-the-clock picks in supported traditional drafts. Auction leagues get results and spend tracking with a safe handoff to MFL for live bidding. MANAGE YOUR TEAM Build rule-aware lineups, add and drop players, submit the waiver or FAAB claim your league uses, propose and answer trades, move players to and from IR or taxi squads, post in league conversations, and update your franchise profile. MFL Pro validates important actions and confirms that MFL received them. COMMISSIONER CONSOLE Commissioners can run supported team, lineup, waiver, IR, taxi, keeper, salary, contract, accounting, franchise scoring-adjustment, and message-board workflows from one focused console. Native changes are previewed, confirmed, and verified against MFL; unsupported or higher-risk jobs open the relevant MFL page. KNOW EVERY PLAYER Search and filter the player pool, including offense and individual defenders, then open a complete profile with current news, game logs, ownership and start rates, projections, ADP, and your league’s own draft, auction, and transaction history. CHAT WITH AI SCOUT Scout is a league-aware AI assistant that understands your scoring, roster, schedule, waiver market, and trade context. Ask for lineup help, waiver targets, trade analysis, or a prepared action. Nothing is submitted until you review and confirm it. YOUR WHOLE LEAGUE, ORGANIZED Move quickly between all your MFL leagues. Browse standings, rosters, schedules, playoff brackets, weekly reports, activity, calendar dates, scoring rules, league settings, chat, direct messages, message-board threads, the draft room, and commissioner tools.
