World of Warcraft Companion App logo

The WoW Companion App is a mobile app that lets one make the most of their time in Azeroth from wherever they are in the real world. It uses the Legion Companion App as a base foundation and has integrated features from the Mobile Armory. It was announced at the same time the support for the Mobile Armory came to an end.[1]

This app succeeded the Legion Companion App and the Mobile Armory on August 13, 2018 for Android and iOS.[2]

Features[]

Lead Adventures
  • Send your covenant companions on adventures through the Shadowlands, all while you're on the go. Compose your party, strategize your board layout, collect rewards from completed adventures, and keep your companions healthy for their next adventure.
Track World Quests
  • View active World Quests, Callings objectives, and available rewards from directly within the app--then use this intel to plan your activities once you're in-game.
Stay Connected
  • Chat with friends in-game via the Guild and Communities feature, follow the latest World of Warcraft headlines and news articles in the News pane, and plan for raids and events in the Calendar.
Battle through multiple campaigns
Examine Your Character
  • Inspect your characters' weapons, armor, and other character information. Keep tabs on their power and help plan which pieces of gear you want to go for next.

Note: To use all the features of the WoW Companion App, one must have an active World of Warcraft subscription and characters of an appropriate level. Players without an active subscription will be able to log in to the app but not select any characters.
