- (2021-02-18) Kevin Wallack: Tom responded to my email mid-game when my friends and I had a problem and restarted his server to fix the problem on the spot. Awesome app. Great help by Tom. Your app connects me and my buds together every week, even though we're scattered across the country. Keep doing what you're doing!
- (2020-10-26) Alex Friend: This is a great extension to play MTG over hangouts. I find the life counter, dice roll, and card look up make remote games so much easier. I do find the card scanner is a little tricky to get to work at times but I think that is caused by the sleeves my cards are in and I don't really see a way around it. Regardless, this is the best way I've found to play MTG with real cards remotely.
- (2020-08-17) Luca Hillen: Super Idee! Leider geht die Kartenerkennung nicht so gut.
- (2020-07-07) Louis de Nijs: Great tool. One the card recognizer doesn't seem to work. Also, it would be nice if the Life score and the + and - to adjust the life would be a bit bigger and in another (more distinguished) color (better, even customizable)
- (2020-04-12) Sean Chen: This is a wonderful tool for magic player making the best of the COVID-19 quarantine situation. The features are great, and while the card scanner is a bit buggy, that's always a difficult feature to implement smoothly. Keep it up!
- (2020-04-09) Stefano Pascali: Very useful extension, but it would be better if life background was clearer imo. Thanks for the great work!
- (2020-03-27) Motorized Precision: I could not get it to recognize any cards on Google Hangout with 3 separate people who have the extension on different devices. Can someone show it working?
- (2020-01-08) Farm: The Best as always from our man Tom.
