Improvement
I think it would be great if I could save my lgs as “my store” so it shows their events and such first over the rest of the results.

Unable to Join Event
When i enter in the app companion a message appear(portuguese):"Desculpe-nos! Estamos com problemas. Tente novamente mais tarde" and when i try to enter the code to an event the same message pops up.
Obs. I just installed the app for the first time and log in with my account. I also tryed to reinstall the all4 votes -
Pairing
So this has happened to me twice at two events (45 person event and 135 person event).
At the 135 person event, I am 5-0 (10-1). I played my match 4 and 5 at table 1. Pairings pop up for round 6, and I am moved to table 3. Neither I nor my opponent had played the players at table 1 or 2. I was the only player with 1 game loss where the table 1 and 2 players had 2+ game losses. Ironically, I play my worst matchup and move to table 5 playing the same deck and the…

Event Final Standings
After playing an event with the Companion app, I was not able to find the final results of the event in Companion. However, the results did exist, as I could access them through the alert message that Companion sent to my phone's operating system at the end of the event.
It is annoying that the final standings of an event cannot (apparently) be found through Companion itself, even though they are actually generated (as they should be).

Card images since MID are lower quality and the file sizes are much larger
Ever since the release of Midnight Hunt, the images that appear in Companion are considerably more pixelated than from Ixalan foward, and they load a -lot- slower over cellular.
It took me a while to figure it out, but I think it's because instead of being JPGs (with white corners), they are now much larger PNG files (with rounded corners). Digging around on my phone seems to show that each image has gone from being crystal clear at ~200KB to being pixelated and harder to read at ~800KB.
Consider going back to JPEG and rounding in Companion or switching to…

Historic Legality has several issues on Companion
Historic Legality is pretty arbitrary, but the recent addition of it to Companion's card database features a number of missing cards, missing sets and errors. In order, after a cursory check:
-Jumpstart: Historic Horizons is completely missing, which is problematic since it features some of the strongest and most played cards in Historic, from Dragon's Rage Channeler to Thought Monitor.
-Partly related, digitally exclusive cards are missing from Companion, be them from Jumpstart: Historic Horizons or later Alchemy sets, yet they're legal in Historic. Probably should be around if it's a supported format. (But then probably would have to have…4 votes -
Leaving tournaments
I recently played in event at my LGS and they couldn’t add someone after the tournament had started so they created a new one. I was unable to leave the event I was already in to join the new event.
So so I think there needs to be a leave tournament option on the app.4 votes -
Incorrect oracle text on companion for tarfire
Tarfire oracle text should say any target rather than target creature or player. I confirmed this on gatherer.

Creature Types are not updated
When searching for a creature by creature type, the results are incomplete. This occurs because creature types that have been updated on older cards are not appearing.
For example, Rootwater Alligator is still displayed in Oracle on the app to have the Alligator creature type. On desktop, Gatherer correctly shows it as a Crocodile creature type.
This current feature is annoying, as accessing Gatherer on mobile asks me to use Companion, but I can't rely on the data on Companion until this is fixed.

Card Database Colour Search Issues - "Exactly" Criteria Does Not Work
On the advanced card search engine there is a feature that allows the user to narrow their search by card colours. There are three options on how the user can limit their search around colours: include, exclude, and exactly. The "exactly" option does not work as read; it functions identically to the "include" option. "Exactly" entails that what ever colour(s) I select to search by is the only colour(s) of cards that should be presented to me. For example, if I do a search for [(card type>creatures) + (colour > exactly > red)] then I should be provided a list…

Upgrades
My suggestion is that the card search should be able in multiple languages, also it would be really nice that it shows the probable result with partial words (so if you don't remember exactly the name you have a hint)
Other suggestion is to put the search bar in the results of the card, just in case you want to look for another card, and don't have to go back4 votesGreat suggestions! We’ve got many of these on our backlog and will be rolling them out in the future.

Card Database Feature Ideas
Hello,
Here are a few feature ideas for the new Card Database-Another button next to Printed and Oracle that says and goes to Rulings
-Under Available Formats your should be able to click on the formats for more information about those formats. I would put them in a stack like:
Standard – More Info (Hyperlink)
Brawl – More Info (Hyperlink)
-Suggestions in search if you can’t find what you are looking for.
-Blue text is not hyperlinked and feels like it should be. This might be a great feature to find other creatures with the same type or some…4 votes -
Quotations when searching
I tried searching for "search your library for a card" but it returned resulted that didn't have that exact quote. I think it searched without the quotation marks.
4 votesWere you on Android or iOS? And what was the specific search? Did you use “Advanced Search,” then “Rules Text,” then add your specific search term?

Push Notifications should include Table/Opponent Information
Current round start push notifications require opening the application for content. Put the relevant information into the push content.

Random target/number generator
Companion needs a random target selection generator function which allows you to input the number of possible targets as well as number of random target results you need. Chef's Kiss is a really interesting new card with so many possibilities I believe it is intimidating and that is why I do not see people trying to play with it. However, if players had a built in function within companion that could handle this card and other random effect cards, i believe this would open increase play with these types of cards and reduce stress, game delay, and errors associated with…

Event Result Screen
After the event is over please can we have a way to download the “Event Results” screen to include all the metrics so rank, name, points, WLD, OMW%, GW% & OGW% etc… at the moment I can not even capture a screen shot using my mobile device because if I move to landscape position holding my mobile device the app doesn’t seem to support this so I can not take a screenshot of the complete table as in portrait position the full list of metrics are not visible. Thank you very much.

Need ability to manually repair
Manually pairing players to fix an oopsie in recording a result or an error in the software is more frequent and important than it is being given.
Just because some TOs use it improperly is not justification to remove that functionality from people who use it correctly.
Repairing an entire round because of 1-2 messups is exceptionally disruptive, and a negative player experience that is being created by this lack of functionality.4 votes -
Add Turn Timer
I have been looking for a turn timer for magic for about a decade. One that could be used in group games as well as tournaments. In casual play it helps move the game along and keeps those players that just talk through there turn more focused and in tournaments it can keep track of how long someone is taking on their turn. I have lost so many games to people who purposely play slow to force a draw.
