What's New in MTG Life Counter App

2.7.1

June 24, 2026

Fixed a bug from the last update where assigning commander damage didn't lower a player's life total until you changed their life again. Commander damage now drops the life total right away. You can also choose how the main-screen clock shows the time — there's a new Use 24-Hour Time switch under Show Current Time. Thanks for playing with Lotus!

New Bugs

Please update the app. It is great and very streamlined but there is a current issue with adding commander damage that doesn’t update until you change life totals manually.

Bug makes this app nearly unusable…kinda

Recently it stopped working well. Whenever someone takes commander damage, the app doesn’t visually show the damage, until more damage or health is gained,lost. So what happens, player takes commander damage. Then we have to add 1 and subtract 1 of normal damage to get it to update. It’s such an inconvenient thing where I’m exploring another App. Reinstalling doesn’t work either. Please fix it, this is my favorite life counter app.
