FanDraft 2026 is now live, and as usual we added a variety of new features and improvements. Below are some detailed highlights of a few of these new additions:
-
End of Round Summary — Automatically displays a full-screen highlight at the end of each round, calling out the Best Pick and Worst Pick. Fully customizable by the commissioner — pause the draft for maximum chaos, auto-dismiss to keep things moving, or turn it off entirely. (learn more)
-
Take a Draft Break — Under the “Commissioner Tools” icon for non-auction leagues, commish can create an intermission and pause the draft whenever the league wants a break.
-
Updated Design — Refreshed setup area and major polishing of several draft-room components.
-
Fade Walk-Up Songs — New option to fade walk-up songs out after 15, 30, or 45 seconds.

Customizable “Pick Is In…” Sound Effect — Customize the sound effect that plays during the “Pick Is In” action.
-
Cleaner Walk-Up Song Pausing — Tightened up the pausing of walk-up song music while the Voice Announcer is speaking.

Auction Voice Announcer — Now announces when a player has been nominated for auction drafts.
-
Auction Team Songs Only During Nomination — By default, walk-up songs now only play during the nomination process and stop during bidding — with an option to override.

View Only Mode — Allow remote owners to only see the draft board, without the ability to make selections on their own behalf.
