Zoom function
This is the best digital version of this game I have seen to date. With that said, it seems to only for people with 20/20 vision. As alot of your fan base are now my age(almost 50), I would like to request some form of zoom. Either through pinch to zoom or a magnifier for the almost legal clause sized text on some of the cards. Thank you in advance for your consideration in this matter.

I agree with the need for user zoomability on mobile (iOS specifically). The main in-game view is just slightly out of a range for me to reliably identify a lot of the cards on the battlefield on an iphone 7plus. I understand the desire to have the entire tabletop within the view, but I find that most of the time, if given the option, I’d prefer to zoom in slightly in order to read the names of all of the cards in view without having to tap and hold on each individually to find the card I want. I feel that I’d still be able to see enough of the board while zoomed in to play and interact with the game effectively, and when the limited view is a problem, I should be able to drag my viewing window around or zoom back out at will. It can just be an easy pinch-to-zoom implementation just like when viewing a document or website on mobile.
It would also be nice to implement some sort of zoomability in the deck building and drafting screens, because those views feel uncomfortable and awkward too. Especially draft. I waste so much of my draft timer tapping and holding cards to read them or even just to read the card name to identify the card. If i had the ability to zoom a little or even the option to see fewer cards on the page at a time, I would rarely or never have to waste draft time tapping and holding and then tapping to go back.
There are two sizing sweet spots. One is the right size to just be able to read the card name. The other is just large enough to be able to read the card txt. The fact that even the card name sweet spot has been missed in draft and in-game views is pretty bad for the gameplay experience. It results in a whole lot of wasted time tapping around in the dark.
Hopefully this improvement is already in the works, but if not, get on it please. Because so far in my opinion, the lack of on-the-fly zoomability is the only major shortcoming of the mobile app.
