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.

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…

Advanced search suggestion
In the advanced search, you can add text that would be in a cards rules. It has the options Not, Is, and Or. There should be an option Includes. This would allow people to search for things like enter the battlefield effects without having to put in exact names of creatures and all the details.

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…

View different versions of a card from the same set
When look threw newer cards and I come across one with an alt-art/borderless, that’s the only one I can see of that set. It would be nice if in the set occurrences list, there would be separate options for main and special art cards. (ex. Abundant Harvest would have MH2(1) for the main and MH2(2) for the special art)

Round timer disappearing
Android user here. Attempting to host and play.
When beginning a new event with the round timer enabled the timer appears in the event pairings area as normal.
Affter entering the life tracker or another screen and returning to the event Page to report the round timer disappears and no way to get it back without starting a new event.
Attempted to proceed to next round, timer does not reappear either.2 votes -
Game/Match Result in life tracker
Can we add some sort of match tracker for best of 3's in the life tracker? Or some sort of "winner" report to end a game/match instead of just "reset"? Even better if it reported results directly from the life/match tracker to the tournament host device directly.

“Historic” isn’t a filtererable search option
If I want to net deck in my spare time I can’t use the card database to build a historic legal deck because historic isn’t a format option, can we make this happen?

Card Database; Name of the Sets; German Translations
It would be nice to have all available Sets in the card database translated into German. The App itself is in German already, which is good. But if you look for a certain Set of cards and you only know the german title its kind of a hassle.

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 -
Companion App incorrect filtering & slow
Companion app has completely incorrect results when searching for cards where CMC == 0.
The app (Android) is also very slow to load assets at the beginning of the experience -- especially when compared to Gatherer. If anything, please just stop forcing a banner to switch to the companion app whenever I open Gatherer. If it continues, I'm just switching over to scryfall and not looking back.

Land images variety
I was looking at the different art for lands from different sets but I can’t see the other variations of the land from the same set. For instance some sets have 3 or four different images from the same set for basic land.

Application Splash Slow to Start
You're just trying to show me text pairings. Why does this thing need to take 30 seconds to launch when I click a round notification? It's more efficient to just pester the TO for a pairing sheet.
1 voteHi, sorry you experienced that issue! To help us track down what might be causing that, can you provide some additional details:
-What operating system is your device? (Android/iOS)
-What type of device are you using? make/model
-What version of the Companion app are you using? -

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.

Going back
The back button (seen at least from when moving from card search results back to search) is difficult to reach quickly on most large phones. Some other apps (such as apple’s safari browser) additionally support dragging from the side of the screen to move back, increasing accessibly and speed of use. Would be nice to get this in a round of UI tweaks.

Cards missing from database
Some cards for example Angrath, Minotaur Pirate are not in the database or don’t show up in a search.
