New app for Riot?

I think it'd be interesting if Riot implemented a third party app on your phone allowing you to Accept a Queue pop, select a champ, and lock that champ in, as well as view which champs are being selected by our teammates and opposing team. This could allow players to get into game while being away from the computer in case someone needs to do something real quick like use the bathroom, get a drink, or simply relax on your bed for a few minutes while the game loads up. This could potentially reduce the amount of champ select dodges there are as well as increase the speed and consistency of getting into games more frequently and avoid people having to to their computer when they hear that queue pop (Imaqtpie).

This would probably skyrocket the afk rate.

well you are thinking the good things about that, the bad things about that is if you needed to do something most of the time you will not be looking at your phone or even if it notifies you you might not be able to stop, take your phone out of your pocket unlock your phone, click the notification, and hit accept in time, its just not worth it in riots point of view as its going to have a cost with no real benifit.

what happens if the dude clicks acept on the phone and locks in everything but then could not get in game because he had to do something longer but he can not take back what he was clicking

Yea it takes me like 7minutes or so to load up my computer.

This sounds super nice, but by the time my computer loads up and game loads, minions will be in lane.

And I mean this has happened. I will be on my laptop and a random friend will invite to game. I'll say let me get on my real machine and they will be in champ select already. So it sounds helpful, but I would rather just not play if they can't wait.
