Hey, Yes, live drafting on the Yahoo app is fully accessible. I have been working with the Yahoo developers on it for over a year. I drafted all my baseball teams in April with zero issues. The one thing that doesn't seem to be accessible is pre ranking your players as it is not yet offered in the app even to the sighted, and you cannot due it on the website with VoiceOver. I would highly suggest trying a mock draft to get familiar with the layout so when you do your live draft you aren't caught off guard. The mock draft is identical to what the live draft will be so you will want to just around the screens to check it out. It's fantastic, and a great job by Yahoo getting the app to work with VoiceOver. Let me know if you have any other questions. On Aug 15, 2014, at 1:45 PM, Kellie <[email protected]> wrote:
