set number of rounds
There needs to be a way to set the number of rounds for an event.

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 -
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.

Double sided cards with alternate art
Looking through the card database it seems to be impossible to see the backside of double sides cards that have alternate art. Instead of showing the back, the button that would normally flip the card image instead just cycles to art for the front side.
The card text also does not display correctly for the front/back side, making double sided cards generally a pain ********** to look up in the card database.
Please make a dedicated button to cycle art that is separate from the button to flip the card, and make the card text section show both front and…

Oracle text mistake
I’ve seen cards where the Oracle text in the app is different from the Oracle in Gatherer. Most recently Tsabo Tovac.
In the app, it’s only a horror for the sub-type. In Gatherer, it’s a Phyrexian Horror.8 votes -
Seat number in push notification
Instead of trying to load into the companion app to see the seat number in a new round, include it in the push notification when the round starts.

Add Card Collections
To better facilitate deck building, and make the card function better, I reccomentd adding the ability to create a card collection. There should be the ability to create and manage multiple lists so you can add things to them and compare or even pull out your phone to show someone the cards you are looking for.

Play each against every other player
Hi there,
sometimes we play i small group (like draft in 4 players at home)
I would like to ask for option to add to Swiss and elimination something like "free for all" where each player plays against every other player (in 4 people, everyone play 3x, etc.) Now in 4 players, there are just two rounds and finito.Thank you

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.

Event History
It would be great to have access to all old events.
It would help me as a player to improve, if I could see my old results.
Even better if I could take notes to a match-up.
Take pictures of a boardstate to analyse the situation later. Keep track of the decks I played, what I sideboarded, special cards my opponent played.
Save my own decklist that I used in the event (this is especially useful in draft).
All these would be great to become a better Magic player and track my events7 votes -
Language available.
Having the option to select another language in order to take advantage of the companion. Translation of cards, etc.

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 -

Notifications won’t go away despite no events, or nothing else that would trigger it being in the app.

Wheel menu prevents people from developing muscle memory
When you use static menus people remember where items are and get quicker at navigating to what they need. The wheel menu looks cool but makes it harder to actually find what you're looking for.

Need a way to correct mistakes.
Running tournaments at home using Companion is generally great, but sometimes an error occurs when entering match results and there is currently no way to go back and correct those mistakes. This completely ruins a tournament since accurate pairings are unobtainable. Please fix this as soon as possible. Thank you.

Incorrect Oracle text
On many cards, the Oracle text are inaccurate, from minor to great degrees, comparing them to Gatherer.
Wanting to use the app to check for Oracle text on older cards can’t be used with that.7 votes -
Delete a bad event
Being unfamiliar with this, I only now realize that if you remove yourself from the event you’re hosting, the event will crash every time you click Continue. Now I have 4 hosted events that I cannot host or delete. How do I get rid of these “bad” events?

Tag/Bookmark
I would like to be able to tag cards that I am interested in. That way if I am looking for a new deck I don't need to redo the search.

No Historic in card search
It would be great if we could lookup cards that are in historic for when we're deck building away from the computer.

Mill Oracle Text
In the card database I noticed the Oracle text for cards does not include the updated ruling for Mill. So cards such as Millstone do not have the most recent rulings.
