OWP counts for too much, 2-0 vs 2-1
Had several events now where someone has gone undefeated but ended the event second place to someone who won 2-1 on most rounds
Screenshot is most recent time it's happened, this time to me but its happened 5/6 times to different people
I could be wrong, but it doesn't make sense to me

Information on conpetitive events
Add a chapter that contains all basic rules when you play a competitive event like 1 deck per box, no other cards in the deck box, right clearly all names on your deck list, don't forget to read well cards and all types of penalties and/or game lost possible....etc
To avoid salty game lost or penalty during the competitive event... thank you1 vote -
Translate
Please add card text and rulings in translated form. Specifically portuguese. I've been on a few billingual matches and an official translation on the companion app wouldake things so much easier

Life tracker change log
It would be nice to have some form of change log in the life tracker, since a written history is the base evidence in any life total dispute having no change history shown in the official app seems like a bit of an oversight.

Dryad of the Ilysian Grove
Dryad of the Ilysian Grove received an Oracle update on 4/10/2020, adding the creature type "Dryad" to its type line. This update is correctly reflected on the Gatherer website, but not in the Companion app. For reference, here's a link to the Oracle update:
https://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/news/oracle-changes-2020-04-10
This means that the Companion app is NOT displaying the correct Oracle text for Dryad of the Ilysian Grove. Screenshots of Companion and Gatherer are attached.

Card Database Text out of Date
The card database feature of the Companion app Oracle feature does not work. Rather than displaying the up to date Oracle text of the card, it displays the most recent printed text. As many cards have had errata to update their Oracle text that have not yet had printings with the new text, this makes the feature almost entirely useless. This is made more egregious by the fact that the Gatherer website on mobile advises that Gatherer works better in the Companion app, which is factually untrue.

Summoner's Egg
Oracle text through Companion currently does not show Summoner's Egg with its correct type, either showing it has no creature type or is a Construct. I would perform a check to see if there are similar issues for other cards.
This is relevant for me as I am a judge. I do not feel comfortable letting players pull up oracle text at Comp REL within Companion if I cannot determine that the information presented to players is correct.

Unable to Install
I sure could use some technical help to get this little bastard to work. And looking at the information provided in the play store, it seems to be lacking anything remotely of that sort.
Since you guys have forced lgs to use this by punishing them if they do not, I do rather need to get it installed if I ever want to play in an event again.1 vote -
Events that fail to stay are not removed from queue
If an event never starts (for whatever reason, on this case the organizer lost the sign up sheet) it stays on the list indefinitely and cannot be removed. Couples with the lack of dates for on demand events, it's confusing.
I saw in a previous response that they will auto remove after 28 days, but that's a month, or 4 FNM events (for example) where you'll have a zombie event cluttering your app.1 vote -
Commander color identity search
It would be handy to search for cards using color identity for Commander.

Can’t see backs of cards in database
When looking in the cards database of companion, I can’t see the back/Night faces of cards.
I looked in the database for the new Arlinn.
Found it, clicked on it, and saw its two names separated by //
In the page, I couldn’t find the second face, not picture or text.
When I went out to look for the name of the back, I couldn’t fins that listed among the cards.
I have no way of getting all the information of the double faced cards through this app.14 votesWe are currently working on this feature! Thanks for taking the time to post.

Drop from a event after preregistering
Many LGS:s provide a preregiateration code for their events before the actual date of event on their websites or social media pages. Sometimes after a plater registers for a event they find out that they cannot make it to the event. However at this point before the event has started the player cannot drop themselves or retract their preregisteration from the companion app.
Will this change so that the player can drop from events before they begin without the need of contacting the LGS or TO

Event
I have an event that has been completed for a while now, has been deleted by the TO but I can’t remove it from my app. The option to “drop from event” shows up randomly, but does absolutely nothing when I click on it.

Event match result history
It would be great if there was an option to review your previous event match result history. Like to give players there own event database.

Wrong German translation for “Defeats”
Wrong translation of “defeats” in the result page of the companion app. It should display “Besiegt” instead of “Niederlagen”.
After entering the results, the companion app displays the results as “<Player A> Defeats <Player B>“, which is translated as “<Player A> Niederlagen <Player B>“.
While “Niederlagen” is a valid translation of “Defeats”, it is rather in the meaning of “losses”. So on the german app, this reads as “<Player A> Losses <Player B>“, which does not make much sense and is confusing.
A better translation would be “<Player A> Besiegt <Player B>“.And please let a native speaker check your…

Access log of life total changes in current game
I ended up in a situation in which we had life gain and damage being processed on the stack in a paper card game while using the companion app to track life. However there was a situation where I don't know if I tracked everything properly and either missed entering something or double entered something for a change in life total. It would be helpful to have a feature to look at a log of life total changes within the current game to confirm whether or not something was double entered or missed. could be analogous to tracking life total…

Removing intentional draw from swiss
I recently participated in a request the other week and that was 5 round Swiss. On round 5 I was in 9th place and was about to play against my opponent when the whole top 8 decided to intentionally draw and walked our of the store for the duration of the round. Seeing as I had no chance into getting into top 8 now I gave my opponent the win and left the store where the rcq was held in a bad mood. A game that is 30 years old shouldn't have ID when other trading card games and yugioh…
