Game management on PC
The idea is to be able to manage events, player lists and arbitration with a website or an application on PC.

Round Start Notifications still sent after Dropping
After dropping from an event (via TO) notifications for the next round are still sent via push on Android. Companion app correctly identifies my status in the event as dropped, but notifications continued for all of the remaining two rounds of the event.

Card database
The card database should include new cards at minimum by the prerelease. We opened unreadable cards written in phyrexian and couldn't look up the oracle text

Alert continues after drop the event.
I drop the event at Round 2, but still alert continues from the app about round 3 starts (and round 4…until swiss round end)
I've left the event already, so please stop the alert.
Is it blame of Tournament Organizer and/or Judges handling? or is it a application matter?11 votes -
Search is no longer usable
New search is no longer usable
You can no longer do an include and exclude color search at the same time.
You can no longer enter multiple keyword searches that are treated as contains searches. Now it is only doing exact phrase searches
You can no longer swipe left and right from search results to see the next card in the search
The changes that were made have made the search unusable

Companion app Android says no internet connection when I click on the event in my events that I'm hosting
I set up an event on event link for an Arena event. When I log into my Companion App on Android I can see the event I created on event link under my events. When I click on the event in the app I get an error that says I have no internet connection. However, I definitely have internet. When I click retry on the app, it gives me the same error almost immediately. Please advise. I'm using android on my Samsung Galaxy Note 20 ultra on my wifi.

App frequently logging out
Hey. I'm writing because the Companion app keeps logging me out. Usually once per round which is really annoying.
I am using a Google Pixel 6a running Android 13. This did not happen on my previous phone, a Pixel 3a.
Please fix this or provide instructions on how I can mitigate it.

Suboptimal pairings in Magic Companion for hosted event
I hosted an 8-player draft event last week, and the round 3 pairings did not match up the two players with 0-2 records, instead pairing them each against a player with a 1-1 record.
In the attached images below, Jeff and Gage already played against each other, so they could not be paired up in round 3; however, it would have been valid for Jeff and Cheryl to play each other, as well as Katie and Gage. This would have allowed Matt and Julia (both with 0 wins) to play each other, for a balanced final round. However, the app…

Compaion App Search Functionality is Broken
Companion search engine is broken.
You can no longer search for keywords in cards, but must search EXACT game text. (I.e. If you search the Rules Text for "create saproling" the database will say no cards exist. See attachment. We all know this to be untrue.)
Search is now case sensitive, which makes searching nigh impossible. (I.e. if you put into rules text "search your library" you'll get a different result than "Search your library".)
Cannot use rules text to search for multiple card abilities without knowing the exact game text on card. (I.e. before if you searched "when enters"…

Bloomburrow cards not searchable by set name
Bloomburrow (BLB or BLC) is not included in the card database filter for "set". While some Bloomburrow cards are available to search by name, and the filter for this set is available on the web based companion, the app still does not have this filter.
Please add these filters to the app The website isn't a great mobile device experience.

Survey feedback
Just finished the survey - which was too short to give any relevant feedback and missed the most important part: a field to write actual feedback, putting the given data in context...
What i wanted to say there:
I can't either correct mistyped results nor drop players and do repairings if needed because of either of those cases.
The final standings should stay available for at least a day after the event finishes - if the host clicks one too many buttons they are gone. It happened more than once.
Doing seatings manually would be a welcome additional option. Several…8 votes -
Round Time
An idea, to put the time of the current round synchronized with the players' scoreboard, to be able to keep track of how much time is left before the turns.

App Crashing
Since the latest update my app is crashing in the middle of games. When restored it has lost track of life totals and reverts to the previous game's life totals. I am on a Google Pixel 8+ Pro

new life tracker design is worse
Worse UX, scree takeovers when putting counters, smaller text, harder to use. I have never considered an alternative due to how simple and easy to use it was before but now I can’t really use this without having to interrupt my game with every change in counters or life due to how small the text is.

How do you not have match history yet? Like that feels like it should be a better minimum feature to make sure it was properly recorded
In case somebody accidentally types in the wrong results last minute, it would be great if you can go back to that time, report the correct results to the store or judges. Or you can bring it up as a helpful game history log to know your matchups and how well you did. Make an optional even if you feel like it makes for bad feels. But at the very least make it available

Use Camera to search cards
When playing MTG I often encounter situations where I need to look up rulings/clarifications for cards. Imstead of having to type in the name of the card, I would like to be able to scan the card with my phone's camera.
Example:
- my opponent controls a 1/1 with hexproof
- I play [[electrickery]] for it's overload costs
- does it hit the hexproof creature?
- we need to look up rulings
- to the google I go (because it's faster than the companion app)
- I end up at the gatherer website entry for electrickery
- we now know…7 votes
