About this app

Pod Pips is a life counter built for real Commander tables — glanceable from across the table, forgiving of fat fingers, and dressed in your commander's art.

LIFE, WITHOUT THE ARGUMENTS
• Big, readable totals for 1–8 players, every tile rotated to face its seat
• Tap or hold to change life — quick taps merge into one change with a visible running tally, so a slow count never becomes ten log entries
• Tap the empty space beside your number instead of hunting for a small button
• Full undo, redo, and a complete game log

COMMANDER DAMAGE THAT MATCHES YOUR TABLE
• One button: tap the sword on your tile, set the amount, then tap who was hit — or set a minus amount to log damage you took
• Every commander tracked separately — partners included
• Life updates automatically as commander damage goes in
• Commander tax presets (+2 per cast) so nobody does the math at 1 a.m.

THE WHOLE TABLE, COVERED
• Poison, energy, experience, and custom counters
• Monarch and initiative, with the crown right on the board
• "Deals X to each opponent" in two taps — or pick any group of players
• Knock a player out and the board reflows so the survivors get bigger tiles
• Dice, coin flip, first-player picker, and a game timer

WHO ACTUALLY WON
• Crown the winner when a game ends, straight from the board
• Standings build up for your pod over time, with no account and no sign-in

MADE TO LOOK AT
• Set any card's art as your playmat — and pick the exact printing you love, from the original to showcase and Secret Lair alts
• Editable seating: rotate seats, swap places, flip the whole table

RULES AT ARM'S REACH
• Commander rules reference and card lookup with official rulings, built in
• A 60-second first-run guide to the parts you would not guess

YOURS, PRIVATELY
• Works fully offline after the first load
• No account, no ads, no tracking — your games never leave your device
• Free
