Mtg Guide App Reviews

It’s been great to have this app readily available to look up during tournament with the friends. Great App!

We all want to know the card texts and rules for our favorite game. This is simply the most reliable and complete way to have it in your pocket.

This is literally the best MTG app on the market, updated regularly, performs very well, easy to use; what more could you want from something you paid for? Worth every cent!

I am new player at 40+ years old and this is app is exactly what I needed. I shared this app with friend that introduced me to the game, himself a long time player, and he immediately declared it great and purchased it for himself.

Just indispensable.

Settled so many arguments. Totally worth the purchase. Always up to date.

These apps are invaluable. I can’t tell you the number of times I use them each week. The UI is clean and easy to use and they’re updated regularly.

This app is the best way to search for any magic card, Oracle text, rulings, etc that you could think of. It also has a draft caller and lifepad, but I mainly use it to look things up. Very easy interface where you can limit your search to particular sets. So worth the cost.

Very quick updates. Easy to use I love it

This program is cheap, is kept up to date in an extremely timely manner, is full of information, works and is constantly improved. What more can you ask for in a program?

Would love to be able to swipe through the card database without having to back out of the card details to the card index. Also, the expansion’s card image always open at the top with the details following would be ideal.

Really handy reference, very good at updating for new sets and announcements.

Great App. Highly recommend. Updates are timely. Definitely worth it. I wish it had format legality like Pauper added if I were to say anything.

If you have a friend who likes to play foreign cards in their commander deck (I am that friend) or just like to figure out the answers to complex rules interaction there is no better app out there. Sometimes you just can’t remember quite what a card does and you’ll have to look it up. This app is perfect.

I’ve been using this app for at least a year and it has never failed to provide me with information quickly without needing to connect to the internet (with the exception of updates). I’m impressed that the updates come whenever there is a new product from WOC. The search “text” option is nice to search for cards with particular abilities. The rules section helps clarify actions during play. Overall, a nice reference during games and for building decks.

Solid app for anyone that absolutely needs the latest oracle text and rules documents for Magic: the Gathering. I recommend it to all judges that use iOS based phones.

I tried Toolbox and this app is better 1000%!!! I absolutely love this app and its counterpart (Trades). Between the two of them, I have easily the best card search and easy access to prices. A+++ and I cannot recommend this app enough!

Frequently updated, easy to use, all of the relevant information a judge could want. Will highly recommend to every avid Magic player.

All you need for card look up, rules, prices, etc. I love the notes for the cards that help with gameplay. Keep up the great work!

Love this app. Use it regularly to judge with my iPhone! If I could give more stars I would.

Great, started learned important rules immediately!

The database and app are constantly kept up to date. I have used it for years and it has never been out of date. The info on the newest sets are ALWAYS available before they are released.

Love this app. I use it all the time. Being able to search the rules is tremendously helpful, along with getting to read all the rulings on individual cards.

All the rules. All the cards. Updates with each release. Search all cards, or a specific expansion. Search title or rules text. I like to browse for cards with a lot of card specific rulings.

Fantastic app for looking up the oracle text of cards and looking up rulings. The only thing I wish it would tell you is whether or not a card is on the Reserved List when you look it up.

This app is fantastic. Always has the latest sets ASAP, sets are organized chronologically by block, and if a card has been reprinted you can look at one version and get access to all versions. Pricing (including foils!) is from TCGPlayer and is separate for each printing. I only wish I could sort each set by price :)

I use this app extensively while judging. Nothing comes close to the reliability and speed of the updates around new sets. Keep up the excellent work!

Very Reliable

Regular updates! Great card info on format ect. Prices are pulled from tcgplayer. Awesome for new players and veteran .

Every feature and layout is perfect for quick and flawless performance as a judging aid and research tool for Magic: the Gathering. This specific app is actually a reason I continue to use iOS devices!

All the documents you need, fast and responsive, and updated regularly to boot. The only MTG app I still use.

Update 2: Still waiting for filters! Also how about giving us the ability to click on a card & get full screen images. Every time I use the app to search a card up for somebody, be it price, text, or rules, they always try to zoom the picture in, which obviously they can’t. (iPhone 7+). Also how about moving cards to the top, followed by text-description, then rulings. Another suggestion - Give us the option to choose settings “always display card art” “display original/newest card art/current filter art” *********************** Update: App is still good, it still needs search filters, and I’m still salty it doesn’t have them! MTG Trades & this app should probably be 1 & the same app. They are very similar & it seems this app trades off the list management for rules. I own both & use this one 99% of the time. Price wise, both apps in one @ this price point is good. This price on each, not so much. I do feel it’s one of the better MTG apps for card & rule searches. ************************ I've been using this app since I came back to MTG, sometime during Theros. This is my goto. Quick & easy card search, TCG prices, viewing different sets & art and information on which formats the card is approved or banned in. Very helpful. Only wish we had 2 improvements. 1) Searching with filters. 2) displaying full-screen image of the card art, maybe even ability to further zoom in.

I use this app every event I judge. My only criticism is that there's no way to hide Gatherer rulings, which I can't let players see when I show them Oracle text at Comp REL.

App is quick, streamlined. Updates come within 24 hrs of WOTC document updates (which is a HUGE advantage over similar apps). I use this app for Oracle text, rules research, and settling rule disputes with other judges. If you are a judge, and have an iPhone, this is a 'must have' app

Best Mtg apps on the market, spend the money, it’s definitely worth it.

I’ve used this app for years and years now, with zero complaints. 1. Prices are always accurate 2. Rules are easy to find 3. All versions of cards always shown 4. Searching by text in the card works every time 5. Frequent updates for better searching and rules checking DOWNLOAD THIS APP

Title say it all better then gatherer

This app is a great reference for quickly looking up Oracle text, rules text, or guidance on penalties from the IPG. I highly recommend it.

Frequently updated, easy to use, all of the relevant information a judge could want. Will highly recommend to every avid Magic player.

Intuitive to use. Helps learn rules and interactions for both new and old players.

Both playing and judging, this is the most important tool aside from my actual deck.

So far this app has been an extremely limitless font of assistance for me in my Judging career. Only one question: Will there be a more extensive search function in terms of how [ctrl+F] works when doing Letter/Word/Phrase recognition searches within the iOS version? I see Android users with a highly exhaustive search function that highlights individual letters/words/phrases. Perhaps a minor update or a major one that I am wholly unaware of how much work that takes. Cheers!

Exactly what I needed.

This app is a judge's best friend. Always updated with new and accurate information.

I’ve been playing Magic for a little over a month now, and this guide has helped me better understand this very very complex card game. The biggest weakness of this guide possesses, for me at least, is being new to this game and not knowing where to find the hundred percent clarification on every rule in the game. I’m glad I bought this though, worth recommending for sure.

Easy to use

I've been using this app for months and it's the best for quick rules questions, card-specific notes and much more. Worth getting, even if you only play casually.

Being a judge, player, collector, and trader I have found this app to be invaluable in all of these roles. Would highly recommend this app for anyone who plays MtG.

Simply the go to application for mtg rulings

Love this app and will continue to use and it is one of my favorite apps thanks again

It's kept up to date and has everything you could want. Super easy to use

The only Magic app that you'll ever need.

Great app, best way for me all to look at cards. I just wish I could see cards in a set rarity inside the app. Maybe some look up kind of command so i can try to find cards for a deck. Like if i wanted red 1 drops can i see all of those.

Comprehensive (with Oracle text AND all Gatherer rulings for each card), regularly updated with each new set of cards, and easily searchable! Having the complete rules is basically gravy... sweet, sweet delicious gravy.

I think a lot of people want a card view. I want to be able to filter and scroll through a set.

There's nothing more I can say. This is a must have for anyone who plays Magic regularly. So many disputes have been settled quickly with this app. Thank you for the time and effort that goes into this

This is by far the best MTG-related app for all things rules, rulings, card text, card searching, you name it. The other app, MTG trades, is fantastic in combination with this one. Buy both. It’s worth it.

This is one of the best apps for Magic players. Great card information, rules and links to external websites to buy the cards you want. Simple and easy to use.

This app is great. It has many features that other apps do not have. I recently became a MTG judge and use this app constantly whilst studying and still use it daily. Despite the great things about the app, there are some small quality of life upgrades I would like to see. First, I would like to see more advanced search options; specifically the ability to filter by color, type, cmc, etc. I love how i can search the text and rulings, but sometimes I just want to browse blue cards with cmc 2. Second, I would like to be able to see how many tickets a card is worth on average on MTGO. Lastly, I would like to know whether or not a card is included on the reserved list in addition to its format legalities at the bottom of the relevant card's information page. In conclusion, this app is a top-rate app for all involved with MTG, the information is presented in a manner which makes it easily accessible and understood to both brand new players and experienced players. I have recommended this app to friends and will continue to do so.

Needs to update errata’s and rulings

This little gem is well worth the price. Nothing gimmicky here - just every rule and every card ever created, in a well organized and consistently updated package. The best!

As a judge, I love this app! It's very slow when loading the Gatherer text, and I REALLY REALLY wish that I could bookmark certain rules, for quick & easy access. Otherwise, amazing & useful so! keep it up!

Great App. Highly recommend. Updates are timely. Definitely worth it. I wish it had format legality like Pauper added if I were to say anything.

I’m just a casual player but love having this app for any questions that come up.

I really like this app, and it provides a great way to look through the various cards in each set and quickly see which cards have specific rulings. The apps is updated on a regular basis with the latest Oracle updates and card rulings, and it’s my go-to app to use as a reference while waiting for pre-releases to start at my LGS. My only complaint is that you can’t limit searches to within a single set or format, it appears to be an all-or-nothing search through the entire card database. It would also be nice if there was a way to filter out cards that are marked as having specific rulings when it’s just the generic rulings text for a mechanic specific to that set. I’m definitely more interested in knowing which cards have errata or extra information. Overall it’s a great app, though, and I highly recommend it!

It’s super useful, has everything you could need while playing MtG.

good stuff

Hands down no competition best mobile MTG resource in existence. Thank you for being awesome.
