Get freedom from your phone’s obvious limitations. Use MTG Familiar, made by gelakinetic, a Tools app on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks, and level up your experience.
MTG Familiar on a PC through BlueStacks feels like a clean little toolkit laid out next to the playmat. The layout is simple to read on a monitor, so glancing over mid-game does not slow things down. The two-player life counter tracks life, poison, and even keeps a history of every change, which helps settle those small disagreements. There is a full dice bag built in with D2, D4, D6, D8, D10, D12, D20, and D100, so no one is digging in a backpack for a spin down. The mana pool and a storm style spell counter make long turns easier to manage, especially when the table gets busy.
The card search is the standout. It works offline and lets players filter by name, type or subtype, rules text, color, power and toughness, mana value, set or format, rarity, flavor text, and artist. It even checks format legality for things like Standard, Modern, Legacy, Vintage, and more. When a connection is available, it can pull live prices, show full card images, and jump to the official card page for deeper details. Trades are easier to compare with the price view, and a wishlist keeps targets organized for later. A round timer runs quietly in the background. The rules are searchable, linked, and update themselves, so settling edge cases feels straightforward. It is free, open source, and ad-free, so the whole thing stays focused on play. On BlueStacks it just sits there like a reliable judge and scorepad in one, quick to use and out of the way.
