I finally found it and installed it. I didn't realize that the version I was installing was the iphone version. It still looks pretty good to me on my ipad, though it doesn't seem to want to rotate. I wish it could because typing on that tiny little keypad is almost impossible for me and very frustrating.
I also notice a 1-3 second freeze when I initially start to type in a card's name. That doesn't really bother me. DA cards aren't showing up in my searches, though.
Overall, I like it. I'm really enjoying the deck builder options, but I'm trying to decide if I should hold out for an ipad version before wasting my time imputing all of my decks. I just wish the screen would rotate so I could have access to a wider keypad.
Does anyone know if they will be releasing an Android-friendly version? I feel like that should have been in their plans, too, since more people have Android operating phones than iOS. I hope they do, it'd be stupid if they didn't. If anyone has any information on it, let me know!
As long as they don't touch the other deck building apps, i'm fine. 0.99 for every new set that comes out is a ripoff, i paid 2.99 for my Decked Builder app and it uploads every set for free.
Overall, the app itself runs very slow, it takes thousand years for it to open, but the life tracker is pretty neat.
For everyone who thinks the app isn't very good... please rate and review it. Maybe then WotC will improve it. Right now, it looks like it has an average of 4 stars...
Is there a way to get rid of the numbers indicating new events? I tried looking at them, and it didn't go away. If I can't ignore those (because I couldn't care two craps about sanctioned events), then I'll stop using the app right there.
People saying it loads very slowly, I agree the initial launch is very slow, but then again, there are 12000+ cards that it is retrieving the data for. I have found that now, the app takes <10secs to load.
Is it really taking this long to load for people? It takes literally one second for it to load up for me (Maybe because I'm using it on an ipad? I don't know..). Though it does take about three to six seconds to bring up a list of cards when I search, which is very annoying when you're trying to put together a 100 card EDH deck.

Theres a second page, you can just move it on there. Thats what I did. (Just hold and drag like you would to move an app normally)
I still don't have DKA cards on mine and I have noticed a few other things:
-Not all versions of all cards are represented
-You can pick which version of a card you want to show up in your deck (for example, Mirrodin art Solemn Simulacrum vs M11 Solemn Simulacrum), but sometimes it glitches and shows the wrong art
-Finding Basic lands is time-consuming (any tips?) (Typing in 'Island' brings up EVERY card with 'Island' in it's name and in it's textbox, sorted alphabetically)
-Not all cards have up-to-date oracle text (They all still say "comes into play" and such).
No dark ascension coming up for me either, even though it tells me its already downloaded as soon as you install the app. I tried deleting and installing it again, but no dice. Anyone else having the same issues, or got any fixes??
Not showing up for me either. Went to "Content Update" and it says Dark Ascension has been downloaded, but none of the cards are showing up in the card search. I tried quitting the app, restarting the phone, etc. but nothing seems to work.

No they're not. Welcome to the App Store.
Please try and be more courteous and informative in your response next time.
Yes, they are, please see the thread about the takedown orders and threats of legal action against third party app designers in this very forum.
This is a very gray area of copyright law, because it could be said that the deck builder apps are fair use/educational in nature. However Hasbro has legal teams on retainer, and lone gunman app developers do not, so the apps will invariably come down.
It's a crying shame, as some apps, like Decked Builder, are far superior to the junk that WOTC has released.
I think EVERYONE can be more courteous and informative in their responses. Unless people stop telling each other what to do, I'll start handing cards out.
The only issue I have had, and this could be because of stupidity on my part, but I saved the player 1 profile as my name and whatnot, but when I go back to it later on the player one is there again and won't let me place myself back in that slot.
Edit: While toying around, I found the tracker for storm. It includes the ability to track for white, blue, black, red, green, artifact and purple spells. Proof they are adding purple?!?!?!
Now if only Wizards would release the app for the mobile OS that has more than twice as many users as iOS.

I was driven from this once-great site by abusive mods and admins, who create rules out of thin air to punish people for breaking them (meaning the rule does not exist under forum rules) and selectively enforce the rules that are written on the forum rules. I am currently lurking while deleting 6 years and 2 months of posting history. I will return when ExpiredRascals, Teia Rabishu and Blinking Spirit are no longer in power.
