What's New in MTG Life Counter App

2.7.5

September 19, 2026

GIFs you upload as a player background move again. Since last year they were saved as a still picture; now they keep playing on the card. The keyboard is easier to close. There's a Done button above it again, and in card search you can tap Return or "View all prints" to put it away, so it no longer covers the cards you're looking at. Under the hood, Lotus is ready for iOS 27. Thanks for playing with Lotus!

Great app

This has been in my experience the absolute best app for accompanying my magic games. No ads, full range of dice, archenemy and planeswalking included. You can even look up card and see per edition prices etc…

Great app just missing one thing

Hello I tried to reach out via email and the address seems to not be existent. I would like to see if you could make this app to where it can be used in landscape mode via casting. I love this app and would like to be able to cast it to a tv for my next commander night so everyone can see their life totals in real time without leaning over the table to see the phone. Currently in the app you can cast it but only in portrait mode. Thank you for considering this.

Literally best app I have ever used

This app does literally everything mtg. If there is something you need to keep track of in a game of magic, this app lets you track it flawlessly.

You can play even planes chase and archenemy on it, like those cards are loaded into the app and you can just hit the planeswalk button and it loads the next card.

Also no ads at all, no premium features BS. Just awesome stuff!!!

Thank you for making this app, honestly it has objectively increased the amount of fun I have playing the game.

Free and fun!

Thank you for an amazing app!!!

A premium experience. Completely free!

I would pay money for a app like this because it has been the single most useful tracker for magic and makes setting up for games super fast. A-lot of players at my LGS saw me using this and immediately downloaded it and started using it because of how easy it is to use. Please support this app!
