This is a beautiful app. Any plans to have the Krarkulator come to iOS?

Exactly the type of app I’ve been looking for.

This is a great app for keeping track of life in any game. It’s obviously designed for magic but has the ability for up to 12 people in a single group and has a movable order so it is also a great life/initiative tracker for most RPGs as well! Super excited to have this in my app in my collection.

Great App

Great App, but I paid to support the developer and it won’t let me access the theme menu...

Nice app, aesthetically irritating

I like the variety of different features and things to count, that makes it easier to count than my go-to, Carbon. However, it's small text, and hard to read on a big table. To remedy this: add different colors, perhaps, and rotate each player so that everyone can read their side. Otherwise great though!

This app is amazing

It has everything you could need as a magic player. Not interested in commander? Disable the commander stuff. Really need a good commander tracker? This has literally everything you need. Partner commanders, poison and experience counters, it has it all. It has a way to put in custom names, save names and groups, and is overall fast and intuitive. It doesn’t have of those annoying +1/-1, but rather, a nice customs increment system. Overall, I recommend this as your mtg life tracker to anyone who plays magic.
