I spent some time browsing and testing various MTG life counters on the app store recently, and I must say I found the popular apps extremely disappointing. Most life counters have an interface that suffers from 1 of 2 problems: either using a busy background image (like Chandra or Shivan Dragon) that obscures basic UI functionality OR using barebones "programmer art", which lacks any aesthetic appeal whatsoever. Visuals aside, I had difficulty finding a life counter that met all my needs: coin flips, dice rolls, EDH/Commander support, Two-Headed Giant support, a clean UI, no ads, etc. So rather than settle for a lackluster app, I made my own - Life Gatherer!
Life Gatherer's interface is both minimal and modern. If you want an app that has poison counters, but also the option to turn them off and unclutter the screen, Life Gatherer has you covered. If you want the ability to add or subtract life in increments of 1 or 5 so you never get stuck spamming the -1 button when your opponent smacks you for 15 damage in a single turn, Life Gatherer has you covered.
Each player can change their background on the fly to represent one of the 5 colors of magic, you can easily switch between game modes, and if your opponent wants to keep track of their own life, simply switch to Life Gatherer's "1 Life Total" display!
Life Gatherer was built from scratch to replace both pen & paper and inferior life counters with missing functionality. So leave those old life counters behind and take your Magic: The Gathering game to the next level! Download Life Gatherer today on iOS, Android, or the Chrome Web Store (for when you're playing Magic near a device with a larger display, like a PC or laptop)!
You can also try the in-browser demo of Life Gatherer on my website, here. Your support is very much appreciated!
