MULTI-DEVICE LIFE TRACKER
Built for the table. Everyone joins from their own phone with a room code. Life, commander damage, and poison sync for up to six players. Per-player backgrounds and game stats.

COLLECTION MANAGER
Build your collection by scanning, importing, or pasting your cards, and carry it with you everywhere.

The deck builder cross-references your collection as you build, so you can see which cards you already own and build new decks from what you have.
SMART DECK BUILDER

Cross-references your collection so you can see the cards you already own while you build. Cloud sync keeps decks safe across devices. Import from Moxfield, Archidekt, or any text list.
PRECON BROWSER
Browse every official preconstructed Commander deck with its exact, complete decklist. Pull up the real cards in any precon, load it as your starting point, then tune and upgrade it.
POPULAR BUILDS

DECK TUNER FOR COMPETITION

I’ve been using MTG Codex to keep track of my Commander decks and it’s made everything a lot easier to manage. I like being able to keep my deck lists organized, look through my cards, and make changes without having to jump between different apps or websites. The app is simple to use and I’ve found myself opening it pretty often whenever I’m working on a deck. Definitely useful if you play MTG regularly
Total Game Changer
TheTokenRedhead
I absolutely love this app! It’s been so helpful to me, from understanding cards as a new player to using the deck building and AI features to help me fine tune my decks. This app brings together the best of all of the other, similar apps into one easy to use, comprehensive bundle. Definitely my new go-to app for anything Magic related!
Amazing
TophtheFirstwetalbender
This is a really awesome app and an easy way to praise the price of the cards you have as well. It’s pretty intuitive and also it knocks two birds with one stone with being a life counter as well.
Very helpful

I started getting into MTG and this app helped me learn a lot. The scanning feature is amazing and the app is easy to use.
First of its kind MULTI DEVICE LIFE COUNTER / TRACKER!
Play together, and a fresh look throughout. Same table, same city, or opposite sides of the world. Everyone plays from their own phone.
MULTI DEVICE LIFE COUNTER / TRACKER
Start a table and everyone joins from their own phone with a short room code. Life totals, commander damage, and poison stay in sync for up to six players, so nobody is passing a single device around the table. Step away to scan a card and your seat is still waiting when you come back.
A REBUILT INTERFACE
Every screen has been redesigned. Cleaner home, clearer navigation, a new Collection layout, and a refreshed Discover Commanders and Banned and News. Buttons and icons are consistent now instead of a different style on every page.
CSV EXPORT AND IMPORT
Export any deck as CSV, in our own format or one built for Moxfield. Your collection exports as CSV too. Both carry the real printing, so set codes and collector numbers survive the trip instead of collapsing to a bare card name. Importing a CSV deck now works properly, so lists from Moxfield and ManaBox load straight in.
BETTER EXPORTS ALL ROUND
Sharing a collection and exporting one now produce the same list, and two printings of a card stay as two separate lines in every deck export.
YOUR COLLECTION IS SAFER
Added a hard protection that stops an empty collection from ever overwriting the one stored in your account, even in the middle of a bad sync.
FIXES
Headers and the Deck Dr. fullscreen view now clear the camera and the Dynamic Island on newer iPhones.
Card scanning and the other quick tools run on the lighter model they were always meant to use.
The Collection opens on All Cards.
If a purchase does not go through you now get real options instead of a dead end.
Faster, steadier syncing for large collections.
