More details from the blog:

FRANCHISE MODE
Use the Madden Companion app to advance the week, view the weekly schedule, utilize commissioner controls, receive important notifications, and even export stats to third party websites all from the palm of your hand.

FRANCHISE NOTIFICATIONS
When you open the M17 Companion App for the first time, make sure to enable Notifications. This will ensure you are notified any time the league advances or when games are played. When you are in a league with several friends, knowing when the week has advanced, so you can play your game is key. Enabling notifications will also keep you informed of Trade Proposals and League Invitations.

TO DOS
You can set yourself as ready, toggle autopilot, or force advance the week right from the app. Your commissioner now has no excuse for not advancing the week on time!

COMMISSIONER CONTROLS
From the members tab, you can see all the other people in your Franchise and as a commissioner you can toggle auto pilot, clear cap penalties, boot users, make admin, and transfer commissioner status. In situations where one person isn’t available to play a game, the commish can now turn on auto pilot, while on the go, so the league can continue to run smoothly.

WEEKLY SCHEDULE
See scores and matchups for the week easily on the Schedule page. If you are the commissioner, then you can easily force a home or away win right from the app.

LEAGUE STATS EXPORT
There are many Franchise fansites that provide a great service to the community, and now you can safely integrate stats from your league into these websites using the new Stats Export feature. You simply put in the URL for your favorite fan website that supports this functionality and then press Export. Once the process is complete, the fan website will have all the player stats and rosters for the entire league. A big “thank you” goes out to DaddyLeagues for working with us on this feature.

MUT REWARDS
Start earning rewards for opening packs in Madden Ultimate Team. All packs you open will count towards your total. MUT Rewards members can receive Coins, Packs, and other great surprises throughout the Madden Season.

New players can sign up for MUT Rewards in the Madden Companion App, while existing members can view exclusive Ultimate Team stats, see the number of packs they’ve opened, and update the email address associated with their account.

But for whatever reason the stats only go back to Week 3 even though I selected all weeks in the app. Anyways while not a deal breaker I really wanted the full season. Now maybe the info isn't there on Ea's side. I don't know. So I mess around by clearing stats and clearing cache and then syncing again. Unfortunately now nothing shows up on Daddy Leagues even though the app says it's all good. Blah. I will say when the data was showing up originally it was pretty damn cool.
Try going under admin < sync area on your DL page, and hit clear cache, and wait a few minutes and refresh. If that does not work, open a support ticket,Papi will prob get to it more tomorrow,as he had quite a bit going on this afternoon, as im sure you can imagine.

I know for my league, i exported the data and it took a while before it all showed up, after i cleared cache.

I'm Italian and kinda have the same issue, cannot find it on the playstore, I go to the link by browser it's there but it says it is not compatible with my phone (and with my previous one, too)

I have Android phone, downloaded the app and get to a login button. When I press it does nothing- any suggestions?

Would be nice if the companion app was available for Windows phones...

Never mind, had Wi Fi turned off
 
# 48 darren1024 @ 12/03/16 01:18 PM
I still cant log onto the app. I can log onto ea.co just fine though.
 
# 49 tosa @ 12/03/16 01:51 PM
Same here, I thought it was working when I enabled WiFi but it just spun for a few seconds and returned to login. This release is odd anyway as I have seen nothing about it from EA- almost like it was not intended or something.

As someone who never used the old companion site or daddy leagues I am somewhat confused. The app seems limited in that as solo online franchise player it seems to do nothing for me when I am away from my console. Can someone please explain exactly what this app in conjunction with a daddy league account would allow me to do on my phone when I am away from my console.

It would allow DL to operate as your leagues website, you can see rosters, stats, injuries, transactions, history of your league, etc...without being in the game on console.

I just signed up with (DL) and am having some issues get things to work right however it is a pretty sweet setup. While large user leagues is what it's ideally meant for a solo league would still benefit depending on what you are looking for. It keeps stats from every game and every season. Awards, attribute moves, just tons of information and it's really clean looking. So if you are into being immersed in your cfm I think it would be cool as a solo cfm.

I run my solo cfm, DL is outstanding for it. This is my 3rd season with them.

Having trouble getting it to work properly myself today.

Ya it really is nice. I can't seem to get any stats through still. Submitted a ticket and they are seeing what's up.

Not sure. Once I remembered my login and password it went through a quick validation test where it sent me a code via txt. Once I entered that it worked like a charm.

You could last year from what I've been told. Not sure about this year as I haven't been able to do much with it yet. I would hold off for now on DL tell they can get things ironed out.

Unfortunately I hit login and it wont ask me for my login info, just spins for a minute and returns to the same login page.
