World of Warcraft: Companion App
The World of Warcraft: Companion App, simply called WoW Companion on the app stores, 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] It lets a player manage various different aspects of an expansion from Warlords of Draenor and onward from troops, missions, and the current active world quests in an expansion zone.
This app succeeded the Legion Companion App and the Mobile Armory on 13 August 2018 for Android and iOS.[2]
On 24 April 2024, Blizzard announced it would no longer be supported as of the The War Within.[3]

- Developers' note: We are very pleased to be able to bring the Auction House back as a part of the WoW Companion App. The new app update provides a way for players to make purchases, view listings, and more. Due to our desire to provide an Auction House experience in a more immediate timeframe we have excluded listing items for sale. While we understand selling items is a much-loved part of the past feature from the previous Remote Auction House, we wanted to provide access to many of the features regularly used by players as quickly as we could with an eye on potential additions to the app in the future. We intend to make improvements as we evaluate player usage, risk, and the developmental load in implementing tech frameworks to support future updates. Learn more about this update on our latest post.
