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

Specify types of wanted notifications
Add ability to opt out of ads/marketing related notifications at a minimum. As a stretch goal, the ability to specify which types of notifications (rounds starting, pairings, results, marketing for new products or events to name a few) a user would like to receive.

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 -
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.

Error in app I can't join events

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.

Error: Sorry! We are currently experiencing issues. Please try again later.
Companion doesn't Allow me to join events. It asks for my name and then gives me the error message in the title. This happened at an in store prerelease on Saturday and is still happening today. I'm on an android phone ( ver 9). I've restarted the app, updated the app, and restarted the phone, but nothing changes.

Round Robin
I would like to propose adding Round Robin to the list of Swiss and Single Elimination. I would love to use the app for events at home with friends and I'd like to have the option for everyone to play each other once.

Can not leave events
When an event organizer does not accept your join request the event stays in your list forever. There is no way to withdraw from the event.

Rotate life total
Rotate life totals in the life tracker 90 degrees and 270 degrees so that I can put my phone on the edge of the table and have both players see both life totals easily (and so they are facing the same way).
The life totals are geared to show each player their life total but it is just as important to see my opponent’s total and when it is upside down it adds mental strain that wouldn’t be there is both totals faced the same direction.
This might not work as well for multi player games so maybe add it…

Bad Spanish translation for DEFEATS
In the companion app, the Spanish version of the result of a match is wrongly translated.
peter DEFEATS John
is translated as:
peter DERROTAS Johnbut the correct way should be:
peter DERROTA A John6 votes -

Sideboard Companion Bug
When sideboarding in cards that don't meet a companion's conditions (a double pip blue or red spell with Jegantha for instance), you have to manually remove your companion from the companion slot. Otherwise the screen will refresh and you will be locked out of sideboarding for the rest of the match.
Previous to Bloomburrow, a warning message would display when SBing in cards that didn't meet a companion's conditions, but would allow you to proceed with the companion automatically getting moved to the sideboard.
