How do I get around Franchise Hub on my phone?

On a phone there are three buttons along the bottom — Leagues, My Team and More. Everything that is not one of the first two lives under More, and inside a page you change section with a dropdown instead of tabs.

Getting around

The bottom bar has three buttons: Leagues, My Team and More.

More is the catch-all. Any page the first two do not claim lights up More, so the bar is never blank and you always know which of the three you are in.

Open More and you get, in order: a strip with your plan and servers, then shortcuts to Manage Server and Notifications, then the Player Portal rows, then Documents and Account, and at the bottom a form for reporting a bug or suggesting something. The eight Hubs are NOT listed here — they open through the green League button on a league page (see "The map" above).

Commissioners also get a floating League button. It is commissioner-only and fails closed — an ordinary member never sees it, and that is by design rather than a permission that failed.

Inside a page there is no tab strip. You change section with a Choose a section dropdown on mobile web, or an expandable menu inside the app. Your team pages use the same idea under Team Pages.

Signed out on a public league page, the bar shows just two items: Leagues and Sign in.

The layout switches at 860 pixels and under, on touch devices. An iPad in landscape is wide enough to get the computer layout instead.

Phone-only rows you will not find on a computer: Set up Franchise Hub, Blocked leagues, Account & data, and Sign out.

Before changing anything, know this: each section saves on its own button. A page can have several, and they are easy to scroll past on a phone.

Overview

The front door. Whether the league is set up, and whether it is healthy.

Start Here (three steps that tick themselves), League at a Glance, License & Billing (owner only), EA Connection, Branding, League Rules, Your Teams, and the owner-only Danger Zone.

When the league's data looks stale, EA Connection is the first thing to check.

Features

The switchboard. Switches only — each feature's own settings live in its Hub.

XP is a parent switch: Betting, Wheel Spin and Daily Challenges sit under it and go with it when it goes off. They explain themselves on screen rather than vanishing silently.

Saving here ticks the third Start Here step.

Front Office

Who is allowed to do what.

Special Roles, League Access, Admin Commands, Self-Pick Roles.

League Access is the one that matters most: the people who may change settings, the Tab Access grid that decides what a helper can open, Commish Center access, and the two panels you can post into Discord.

Tab Access fails open — a helper sees everything until an owner saves a narrower list.

Teams

Team Assignments, Team Roles, Team Claims, Trades, Free Agency, Draft & Scouting, Relocation, Retirements.

Team Roles is how the bot knows which Discord role means which club. If one team behaves oddly everywhere, start here.

Gameday

Game Channels, Game of the Week, Player of the Week, Power Rankings, Playoffs & Predictions, After the Game, Stat Leaders, Newswire, Force Wins.

Game Channels is the busiest part of the product: a channel per fixture, the banner, the reminder wording, whether both owners get pinged, and the clean-up afterwards.

XP

Overview, Earning, Upgrades, Wheel Spin, Betting, Rules & Setup, Daily Challenges, Pending Upgrades, Achievements, Tournaments.

Prices and limits are separate sections — setting a price does not set a cap. Raffle does not have its own section yet; it is a link from XP → Overview.

Moderation

Roster Protection, Spam Control, Joining & Leaving, Active Check, Member Log, Tickets, Moderation Log, Player Reputation.

Running Active Check again while one is already running starts over — everybody checks in again — and it says so before you commit.

Extras

Twitch, Recap, RSS Feeds, Assistant, Messenger, Recruitment, DM Settings.

A streamer joins your league's Twitch list by linking in Discord and holding a team role. Lose the role and the channel drops off by itself.

Your team pages

This is what My Team opens, and it is where a team owner spends their time. Change section with the Team Pages dropdown.

  • Team — Dashboard, Roster, Schedule, Matchup, Notifications. Notifications carries an unread badge.
  • League — Standings, Power Rankings, Stat Leaders, Awards, Newswire.
  • Economy — My Upgrades, XP History, Propose a Trade, My Trades, Trade Block, Sportsbook, Wheel Spin, Free Agency.
  • Progress — Daily Challenges, Achievements, Twitch, League Rules.

Economy and Progress rows disappear when the league turns the matching feature off, so read them as "if your league uses this".

What you can see

The menu shows what you have rather than what you cannot have. An empty menu is an answer, not a fault.

  • A member with no team gets Leagues, an invitation to join a team, More, Report a Player and My Flags. No Hubs, and no floating League button.
  • A team owner gets the whole team surface. Still no Hubs. On a league that is not on Elite, the My Team row shows a padlock.
  • A commissioner or helper gets the Hubs, narrowed by the Tab Access list the owner ticked. License & Billing and the Danger Zone stay owner-only.
  • A league not on Elite still sees Moderation and Extras in full. They are not greyed out — they say plainly that saving needs a bigger plan.

Common problems

  • My change did not save. Each section has its own Save button, and on a phone it is easy to scroll past the one you need.
  • I cannot find a Hub. Everything that is not Leagues or My Team is under More.
  • I do not have the League button. It is commissioners only, on purpose.
  • A whole feature disappeared. Check Features — XP takes Betting, Wheel Spin and Daily Challenges with it.
  • My helper cannot see a Hub. Front Office → League Access → Tab Access.
  • The data looks old. Overview → EA Connection.
  • My tablet looks like a computer. Anything wider than 860 pixels gets the computer layout. That is expected.
