  • Great app

    This app is really great and beautiful! I just wish the timer could be used for rounds too, not only for the match. I would like to play mtg limiting the time each player has to think and make the play, but with the current timer it’s not possible since we have to click on 3 places to start, pause and restart de timer...
    If round timer was a feature I would definitely grade it 5 stars!

  • 2019's best MTG companion!!!

    Edit: attempted to report bug and was brought to a website disconnected from any servers

    Perfect app to keep track of life and counters while playing cards! Only bug I've found (iPhone 5c) is that I can't buy premium but you really don't need to unless you want to support the devs!
  • 5/5 Stars! Stellar App.

    Been using this for at least a couple years now- flawless app with beautiful, minimalist aesthetic. So easy to use! I’ve used it at my LGS for drafts, kitchen counter games with my buddy, and bigger tournaments. Everyone I’ve played with loves the app. Being able to see the history of each match is a huge plus. The alternate counters make keeping track of everything so simple (i.e. commander damage, poison, charge counters, etc). Love the app!!

  • Better than the others.

    I met Jon while playing at my local card shop on our casual commander nights. He saw that I was using other apps to keep life counts, and recommended his after showing it in the games. I really have to say, he was right. It provides everything you need, and it is so aesthetically pleasing. Couldn’t give it a higher rating.

  • Hands-down the best MtG life counter app

    Such a joy to use. Beautifully designed, easy to use, minimalist app. Blows every other life counter app out of the water. Free version isn’t hobbled, but was so happy with it I had no hesitation getting the paid version.
  • Jack of All Trades, Master of Most!

    First of all, I thought it would be relevant to inform you folks that I don’t even have the premium version of this app. I’m a college student. I’m too broke to pay for an app.
    That being said, this is a stellar app for a Magic the Gathering player. It has everything I could want in every format (except +1 and -1 counters, but there’s probably no real way of implementing that for more than one creature) and it has a surprising amount of things that I want as a D&D player. I’m a dungeon master. I use life totals as monsters’ hit points. I use the dice for... well, dice.
    Basically what I’m saying is, this is a great app for Magic, and it’s a great app for D&D. Nerds of all shapes and sizes can appreciate this beautiful thing.

  • Use it all the time but,

    I like the interface. I look the look. It’s very intuitive. But I’m upset I bought this app for $5. I did want the death icon and the monarchy, but for some reason I was under the impression that you can preset game types. I WANT TO PRESET GAME TYPES!!!

    That’s what I thought history was. I thought I could set up a commander game and then save it so I don’t have to always be putting commander counters at set up. I also want to preset regular games so I always opened at the same two colors.

    For future updates, it would also be cool if the history logged into a player database the user provided so you can keep track of either points or kills or whatever so we can set up leagues and keep track with our phone.

  • Excellent MTG Life Counter

    I normally don't write reviews but this app is EXCELLENT. So far I only have the free version but the features that it contains is far beyond what I was expecting. I'm actually considering upgrading to the paid version for the customizable gesture shortcuts. I've used many life counter apps over the years but by far this is the best one!

  • Great App (Especially after the big update)

    I’ve had this app for quite a while and it is definitely my go to for any tabletop game that requires life tracking. Now that a few little annoying quirks were fixed with the big update, it’s even better. Makes games of Magic the Gathering super quick and streamlined. And you can even just the chooser part to pick turns or even “flip coins”.
    Great app, nice people behind it.
    5/5

  • The best

    This is by far the best life and counter tracker you can find in the App Store. But I do have a few complaints. The chooser seems to be rigged. When playing with two people it always chooses the person who’s finger is closest to the top of the screen. Also I’ve paid for the premium features of this app and even though the app has been updated I still can’t input players names. I’ve paid for this and there was an update 1 day ago from this review and I still can’t do this. This makes me feel like I paid for nothing.
