Can’t sideboard
I’ve been playing bo3 Timeless matches on iPad and I am unable to sideboard at all between games after the latest patch. I click on cards in my sideboard to add them and it doesn’t add them. After game 1 I am sometimes able to sideboard normally, but never after game 2. Sometimes I’m able to remove cards from the deck but I’m unable to add any back in, even the ones I’d just removed. When this happens all I can do is restart MTGA, which doesn’t fix the problem but it at least resets my deck to 60 cards again so I can submit a legal deck and don’t need to wait for the timer to tick down. I’ve been unable to replicate the conditions that cause this to occur or not, but I’d say most of the time I am unable to sideboard after game 1 and never after game 2, and sideboardinggmae 1 seems to be broken more often than it works. I’ve mostly been playing decks with Lurrus as my companion, but I’ve also run into this problem with a Yorion companion.

I’ll extend I’m unable to side board at all in Bo3 for timeless and haven’t been able to for over a week now. You can drag the side board cards to the deck but it won’t allow you to submit your edited list no matter how many times you click the button and inevitably you just burn out your side board time and join the next match with your original list from G1.

So I have a bunch of additional data points, but they unfortunately don't help narrow down the issue much. I've since run into this issue on the Mac client as well, so it's not just affecting mobile platforms. The issue is the same: clicking/tappping on cards in the sideboard does not add them to the deck, and sometimes I'm unable to interact with cards in the main deck as well. Cards do still highlight as normal on mouseover or tap and hold.
Part of what makes this bug so difficult is that, while I'd say I'm unable to sideboard properly in about 80% of the matches I've played recently, 20% of the time I'll have no issue, and I cannot replicate what leads to either outcome. Sometimes I'll have a match or two where I *am* able to sideboard normally, even after game 2, but then I'll have bugged sideboarding for the remainder of my matches that night.
