Tapps Tracker 0.7.5
In-app updates, a Stream Kit for streamers, and Buy on Paper. This is the last release you install by hand: from here on, Tapps Tracker updates itself. Streamers can put the overlay, their record and recent games on stream, and any deck can be priced and bought in paper.
In-app updates
- Restart to update. The tracker checks GitHub Releases shortly after start and every six hours, downloads a new version in the background and verifies it against a signed manifest. Then it offers Restart to update in a banner, the sidebar and the tray menu.
- Never mid-game. "Install after this game" waits for the current game, and your game history is backed up to the data folder's
backupsbefore anything installs. - Your choice in Settings → Updates: checking, automatic downloads, and an opt-in automatic install that runs only while Arena is closed. Windows upgrades through the installer; macOS swaps the app in place. The portable Windows zip and source runs link to the release instead.
Stream Kit (new)
- Six widgets for OBS and Streamlabs. In Settings → Streaming, pick the options, copy a link and paste it into a Browser source. Widgets are transparent, appear only when there's something to show, and Preview shows them with sample data.
- Full overlay: the in-game overlay as one source, with the sideboard beside or below it and a background slider.
- Deck tracker: copies left and next-draw odds for each card.
- Session record: wins, losses, win rate, rank, and today's record with this deck.
- Recent games: today's games under the session record, from the last game up to the last 25.
- Matchup: opponent, colors, likely deck, head-to-head, play or draw.
- Card spotlight: a large image of each card as it's cast.
- Costs nothing if you don't stream. Nothing runs unless a widget is open.
- Thanks to MrNaosu for the idea.
Buy on Paper (new)
- Price any deck in paper from Deck Finder, Deck Manager or a deck page. Untick cards or boards you already own and the total updates as you go, then open the list at TCGplayer, Card Kingdom or Mana Pool. Arena-only cards are marked and left out.
- Every store's total side by side, each priced from its own list, with the cheapest store that prices every card marked. A store never borrows another store's price.
- Off switch in Settings. Turning it off hides the button, stops price downloads and deletes the saved price lists.
- Mana Pool links carry Tapps Tracker's referral code, which earns the project a small commission at no cost to you. The note appears when you choose Mana Pool.
Dashboard
- Land streaks aren't flood by themselves. Flood now comes from your land count against your decklist. A run of lands is flagged only when it was unlikely for that many draws, and shows as its own Land streak label unless the game also saw more lands than expected.
- Sessions end after a long break. A match four hours or more after your last game starts a new session, so leaving the app running for days no longer piles every night into one record. Set the break in Settings → Sessions.
- A new Settings page, in groups (General, Features, Streaming, Your data), with each card's state beside its title. The overlay, Buy on Paper and Deck AI turn on and off with a switch.
- Live Scoreboard: Today's Games shows filled W/L/D squares and a Play or Draw tag for each game. The Sessions table has a Play / Draw column too.
- Deck Finder: hover a card in the selected deck to see it. Add to Arena no longer stays greyed out after you free deck slots.
- Export MTGA Collection lists its four formats with what each is for, and stays off until your first recorded game, when it can work.
Deck AI
- Grok joins OpenAI, Anthropic and Google as a provider.
- The Model field lists the models your key can use, straight from the provider, with a link to its model page.
- New default models (GPT-6 Luna, Claude Haiku 5.5, Gemini 3.5 Flash-Lite). The old Gemini and Claude defaults had been shut down, so Deck AI with them had stopped naming decks. If you never picked a model, you move to the new default; a model you chose is kept.
Replay (beta)
- A clearer table. Flying creatures hover with a soft shadow, summoning-sick creatures wear a purple "Zzz", identical tokens and lands stack into one slot with a count, repeated triggers show as one stack card, and a card holding many exiled cards shows them as a pile.
- Right cards, right art. Tokens show their own token art, cards from brand-new sets load instead of showing name-only frames, and cards castable from exile (Emrakul, the Exigent Doom's cycle, Eternal Scourge) sit beside your hand.
- More accurate games. "Until it leaves the battlefield" exiles stay tucked under their card, Mobilize tokens attack as themselves, and cards cast during one of Arena's summarized updates return as themselves. Earlier games are fixed too.
- Video export ends on the Victory / Defeat card and never shows a frame of the previous action. The dialog names the codec and gives the size as an upper limit.
- Attack arrows point at the planeswalker being attacked, counters show their names ("oil ×3"), and dragging the position bar no longer jumps.
Fixes
- An opponent's draw could be logged as yours and appear as an unknown card in your hand. Fixed, including in replays of games already recorded.
- Replays of games where you mulliganed ran one card short in your hand.
- The in-game overlay now quits on its own when the tracker that started it is gone (crash, Task Manager, uninstall), instead of staying over Arena.
- Windows Smart App Control blocking the overlay now shows a clear message instead of error 4551.
- Collection export no longer counts Alchemy-rebalanced cards twice (Orcish Bowmasters as 8 instead of 4).
- Collection export works in the macOS app again. Thanks to @marcosswald for finding and fixing it (#34).
Installing
- Install this one by hand. Releases after 0.7.5 install themselves from inside the app.
- Windows: run
MTGA-Tracker-0.7.5-setup.exe, or extract the-windows.zipinto a fresh folder for a portable install (the portable copy links to new releases instead of updating itself). The build is unsigned, so SmartScreen may show More info → Run anyway. - macOS: open the DMG and drag MTGA Tracker to Applications.
- Your games, saved decks and settings live outside the application folder and carry over when you upgrade.
