Ratings and reviews

The app is okay, but the built in Gatherer isn't great. I can find cards from the LOTR set by name, but both the normal set and the Commander set aren't listed as an option. Additionally, as a lot of these cards have accent marks they won't show up if I use a non accented version (like typing Nazgul instead of Nazgùl) Always takes too long to update w new sets vs web to be useful. Furthermore, double sided cards with alternate art are bugged, and will show the front side of the both versions.

It works sometimes. Auto logs you out at random intervals during tournaments, sometimes kicks you from events for no reason. However, the commander life total app is fantatic. Genuinely the best way to track life these days. For that alone it could be 5 stars. Unfortunately the app doesn't do what it is supposed to, which is be a companion app for *events*

On the one hand, having everything in one place is pretty cool. On the other... how hard is it to keep you logged in? I draft almost every week in my local store. I have to log into the app at least 2-3 times a night, for one event. Today it logged me out as I was reporting a match (twice). Any other app on my phone? I log in once. Period. Unless I go months without using it or actively choose to log out. Event UX needs a lot of work just due to this "feature".
