Magic: The Gathering Companion, also known as MTG Companion, is an official mobile app that started its open beta in August, 2019[1] and was officially launched on July 15, 2020.[2] It was the replacement for the failed Magic: The Gathering Portal app.
History
The beta version of this organizer allowed you to set up and organize home tournaments and invite friends to play in them.[3] Launching with just the home tournament organizer didn't mean MTG Companion would stay a single-feature app.[3] The first update added a Round Timer.[4]
At the official launch the app also allowed for participating in event at a Wizards Play Network retailer, receiving tournament information, automatic pairings, standings, a life counter for up to four players, and a commander damage tracker.[2]
The July, 2021 update added a dice roller[5] and in August of that year a card database was added.[6]
Play Promos
Innistrad: Crimson Vow introduced dark-frame Companion Play Promos. If players signed up for an event using the Companion app, WPN Stores could hand out special bonus promos.[7][8] WPN stores received three different promo cards to be used during any play event they choose.
| Release | Set | Promos |
|---|---|---|
| 2021-11 | Innistrad: Crimson Vow | Geistlight Snare, Fell Stinger and Dominating Vampire[9] |
