Fixed a bug where the card search field could slip behind the keyboard, so you couldn't see what you were typing. Text inputs now stay above the keyboard. Thanks for playing with Lotus!

The best app for life counter. I will die on that hill!!!

This app is the only life counter besides the official companion app that’ll ever be on my devices. The developers are really quick at responding to comments. The only things I would like added is a chess clock mechanic, to spice up games, and commander damage tracking for when you are the only one using the app (just in case I play against psychopaths)

You guys are doing God’s work! Keep it up 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Great app, would recommend!!!

This app is visually appealing and amazing for tracking life in MTG, and has a bunch of hard-to-find MTG mechanics built in. Note for developer(s): Please add the “venture into the dungeon” mechanic and please change the card search so you can see the legality in all formats and see the rulings for the cards as well. God bless you all!

I LOVE this app it’s so modular!

This is the most customizable app ever it’s so easy to use out of the gate but takes a second to learn the extra bits but once you due it’s so good at streamlining your experience so you can focus on the game!
