FAQ
Is MTG Tracker free?
Yes, completely. If you like it, you can support it with a donation on Ko-fi.
Do I need an account or an app?
No. MTG Tracker runs in your browser: open the website and start playing.
Where is my data stored?
Your game and settings are only saved in the browser on your device. There is no account and no game data is sent to a server.
Does it work for Commander?
Yes. Set the starting life to 40. Commander damage is tracked per opponent on a small map of the table, 21 from one commander is marked as lethal, and it can take the same amount of life automatically.
Can several timers run at the same time?
Yes. Every player's clock runs on its own, so you can use it as a chess clock or to time the whole round.
Which devices are supported?
Any phone or tablet with an up-to-date browser. It works best on a phone lying flat on the table.
