MTG Scanner - Dragon Shield

Terrible update where the devs replaced the back button with “tips” rendering the whole app unusable

I love this app. I’ve been using it for months now to track my card collection and build deck lists to play with. Even the wish list section is a great touch to add potential cards for the future. However, I have one request to make it perfect. Can you work towards a more comprehensive filtering system for cards so I can search cards by Mana Cost, Creature Type, Card Type, Mana Type, etc? For deckbuilding purposes it would be so efficient to know, ‘I am building my deck around this specific commander so I want to select the filter of mana type in my commanders colours and see all the cards in my collection that can fit in this deck.’ Other than the one criticism of a more comprehensive filtering system of the inventory, it is a perfect app. Thanks!

Saved me potentially hours. The scanning code is crazy easy to use and is so far 100% correct. Love it. Love it

I love this app, the scanner works crazy fast. I have no idea how it works I can barely get the card in frame before it reads it. I have double sleeved black colour cards that are reading without having to take them out of the sleeves. Dragon shield are a great company in general. Their sleeves are the best :).

Lacks a robust export option, but does allow exporting Card Name, Quantity, Foil, Set, and Quality. Definitely should be exporting card number as you will not be able to import to sales sites as borderless, alternate art, etc. are not distinguished. Has good features for searching, seeing your deck and collection stats, and a almost flawless scan in system. Be warned that you will have to pay monthly to use more than 100 cards.

Enjoyed using the app until functions were locked behind paywalls. I understand ad support, but an 10 free scans a day is unusable.

Great app DS team! If we create a deck can we have a way to push those cards to our inventory would be awesome. Also export into MTGA format would be great. Currently have to use Chat GPT to convert it for me.

Overall, very useful app. I like that it allows me to sort my cards easily and move them between folders. The win or loss percentage is also helpful. I have scanned my entire collection with very few problems. There are a few things that prevent it from getting the fifth star, though. For some reason, it keeps thinking things are the card “Savannah” multiple times when using the scan feature. It is also very bad at scanning Saga cards. Finally, it would be really helpful if there were a way I could access statistics such as colors and rarity percentages for the whole collection. I can do it for individual folders and decks, but there isn’t a way to export the list of cards and import it into a new deck.

The database is sufficient; would be fun to see Arena exclusive cards added. The UX is amazing; I especially like how the app doesn’t promt you to turn on notifications until you first visit the notifications menu. I do wish that after adding a card to a deck and returning to the text card search that the existing text in the search bar was autohighlighted so that I could immideately start typing the next card I want to search. All searches might be even better if they incorporated fuzzy searching. Additionally, the app desperately needs background app refresh downloading to decrease wait times at launch.

This app does really well at cataloguing and keeping track of prices for your cards and helps keep it all organized. Love how quickly the camera picks up on cards most of the time and changing editions is honestly relatively easy. My biggest issue is the lack of sync between inventory and deck lists. While I get there may be some nuance to deck lists that may make it difficult to have them transfer 1 to 1 (e.g. your deck list has cards you want to get but don’t have), it would be easier to be able to have that synchronicity and just adjust as needed in one tab or the other. It feels very much of a hassle to essentially scan a card twice for it to show up in two places. I don’t know anything about app coding, so it could be more difficult than I understand. But it’s a feature that’s making it difficult for me to want to continue updating the app with my deck collection, even if it’s such a useful tool to do so
