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).

Shorter times for turns
Turns are too long, players drag out turns when they know they will loose and the sandclock reward is given much too loosely and wastes time for others. Either really reward fast turns with more time later on or just let it be. No downside for taking forever in each turn is not rewarding for faster players who just loose interest.

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 -

The shuffling sucks how can you play and win 5 in a row (that includes people leaving in the middle of a match) and lose the next 10 the shuffling and drawing is garbage

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.

Translated cards
Please add card text and rulings in translated form. Specifically Spanish. I've been on a few billingual matches and an official translation on the companion app wouldake things so much easier!

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.

Constantly crashes/difficult UI for TO
I have a lot of problems with this app crashing whenever I touch an option such as end event or drop players. I also have some issues with navigating the UI to find where those options even were. The top right drop down menu changing when you open an event is not intuitive and there needs to be easier ways to add players if you’ve accidentally started the event (had this happen multiple times when I was manually entering names but it wasn’t registering since I didn’t hit “done”). All in all pretty frustrating for a tournament organizer and when…
4 votesHi, are you using the Companion app to run sanctioned Wizards Play Network (WPN) events? If so, please make sure to use the EventLink website for those events; Companion is the player portion of the event management tools suite.

Local event scanner
Can we get a feature to locate nearby events?

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…

iOS Companion App crashes when trying to start draft event
I was TO’ing a draft event today and tried to run two pods with the app. After starting the app and trying to continue past the seating arrangements, it will just crash. I had to think fast on my feet and found an online app I was able to use instead.
That was a little unnerving as I was trying to deal with a good number of people and had to keep the event going.

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.
