Ratings and reviews

almost perfect, but when adding lands i always have to go search through to find the correct series which is years and years of series to find the land (but understandable since most lands have remained to look the same except the rare ones) ...BUT this does still happen from time to time with other non land cards as well... lastly it doesnt always show the cards value the most current it's been sold for ..so if a card is randomly picking up in price, you wont really know unless you look it up

Fantastic scanner (legitimately best out of any app I've used), but too much is behind a paywall. Shouldn't need to pay to sort by color, set, etc, if I can already search for cards that way. I understand needing to make money on a free app, but this weakens the "free" app. Additionally, the bulk scan relies on all cards being from the same set, which doesn't help much when you have old decks that were cobbled together.

This a great app for cataloging cards! I love how you can just scan it and add it, even making sure it's foil and in the right print. I use this app to help keep the prices of cards. The different folders help keep my cards organized so I know which group of cards I wanted to sell or buy. However, I do wish you could transfer a large selection of cards for you collection folder to a deck folder instead of having scan each card individually again. but great app, love it!
