Recent MTG Trades reviews

Posted by Michael on Mar 10, 2013 in App Reviews, MTG Trades app

The reviews for MTG Trades 1.6 over the last few days have made me really happy. I worked particularly hard on the version 1.6. It didn’t look too different, but I invested a lot of time in fixing obscure crash bugs, and providing a really good user experience. I’m excited the recent reviews reflect this, and people are increasingly happy with the app.

Professional quality ★★★★★
by MagnorCriol – MTG Trades – Version 1.6 – Mar 5, 2012
Every bit as streamlined and professional as his other app, MTG Guide, this app is just about everything you want from a trading app – intuitive interface, swift price retrieval, an easy-to-understand trade screen, fast (and holistic!) card search functions, the works. Worth the price tag if you do trading with *any* amount of regularity.

Well worth it ★★★★★
by gaeface325 – MTG Trades – Version 1.6 – Mar 6, 2012
This app is, in my opinion, the top mtg trading app on the market. To be able to manage loans when going to ptq’s, gpt’s, gp’s, and fnm’s is well worth the investment. No longer do i have to wonder what i loaned out or borrowed by the end of a very long day or days. The off line pricing is top notch for those places that you go that don’t have wifi. I will be using this app for years to come and recommending it to all my friends and everyone i trade with. Well worth the 5 dollars.

Likely errors in Gatecrash Oracle update

Posted by Michael on Jan 23, 2013 in Database Updates, MTG Guide app, MTG Trades app

Gatherer was updated today for Gatecrash. Whenever I update my apps, I always look over these changes and look for errors (both in my code and in WotC’s update).

** 2013/01/25 Update: This is now fixed. **

This update has some changes. They changed (reduced) the mana costs of 45 odd blue cards to {3}{U}. Misdirection is a bit easier to hard cast, Treachery now ramps you even with only basic lands in play! Crosis, the Purger is a lot easier to cast for only blue mana. I don’t think Morphling needed any cost reduction. And strangely they changed Spark Spray’s cycling cost from {R} to {2}.

MTG Guide 2.13 DB updates for iOS 4.x users

Posted by Michael on Oct 24, 2012 in MTG Guide app

Thought I should post an explanation on this since I got a review yesterday complaining about it…

For iOS 4.x users stuck with MTG Guide 2.13 (because later versions require iOS 5), I still provide database updates for that version of the app. You just have to look under the Database Updates section of the updates tab, and check for them manually. I’ll keep doing this as long as possible even though people in this category amount to less than 1% of MTG Guide users.
