MTG Scanner - Dragon Shield for Positive User Reviews
✓ Great App!This is an awesome App! However I hope one day that they have conversion to Canadian$. The scanning experience is 99% near perfect. Looking forward to testing the other new features when they become available! Canadian Conversion Please!!.Version: 2.1.4
✓ Incredible tool for all MTG playersI got into MTG three weeks ago and one of my friends suggested this app when I was asking around on how to play. This app has helped organize my cards and keep me aware of what cards I could use to help my play styles! 10/10.Version: 3.6
✓ Overall goodOverall this is an excellent app, but I think that in the deck portion of the app, if you could sort your decks by the card type (Creature, Land, Artifact, Etc.) would help a lot, along with telling you the price of your deck in its current state..Version: 2.1.2
✓ AmazingSuper fast scanning and unbelievably useful. Only things I ask for would be a deck builder with your scanned cards as the database and the ability to scan cards in bulk without set selection. Still amazing tho, can’t believe how quickly it recognizes cards..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Need a lot of changesOn the old app i have 10000 spaces, but on the new app i can’t have those spaces unless i spend more money, its a joke, after spending money for the spaces i should be aloud to keep them..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Excellent application for cataloging cardsThe is an excellent application if you want to keep an inventory of what cards you own. Unless I’m missing some features (I have the free version and am generally dumb) it could use a bit more functionality in the deck building department to make that process a little easier but that may just be that I’m expecting a different workflow. Still a great to use and great to have app..Version: 3.7.5
✓ Exactly what i was looking for!I recently started playing Magic again and got my daughter into it but I wanted some way of tracking all of the cards we started collecting. I was dreading using Excel but then i saw this app and it perfect. Scanning was fairly smooth. I had issues with some the black cards but may have just been my lighting. Categorizing and seeing values was awesome. Great job!.Version: 3.7.7
✓ Responsive support staffI had issues migrating from the old app. I emailed support, and they transferred my collection and previous purchases over the next morning, plus some extras. Very happy with the new app so far too..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Everything I Need, Except…I use this app to keep track of an 8,000+ card collection. The amount of relief this product has brought me is tremendous. Dragon Shield has set themselves apart from others in a number of ways with this scanner. The seamless accessibility and ease of navigation is definitely noteworthy. I am able to customize the way I store and organize my cards, keep track of the decks that I have my cards in, and monitor the ebbing and flowing values of my individual cards, as well as my collection as a whole. This app has everything I could possibly need, except ONE feature (which I hope to see added, eventually). The only thing this app is lacking is a way to add MTG products to your inventory, aside from individual cards, that would otherwise be for sale on sites such as TCG Player, Card Kingdom, etc. It would be helpful to keep track of my inventory and the value of items such as unopened precons or booster boxes. I’m not sure how realistic or easy it would be to add such a feature, but I would love to see it! I've already recommended the app to my entire playgroup, and even offered to help them get their collections organized. Absolutely top product here..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Handy little appI’ve been getting back into Magic: The Gathering after an long time away, and it’s been great to get my collection into digital form. The scanner feature is really nice although at times when doing bulk scans it can have a hair trigger and scan a single card a bunch of times. Easy enough to correct the quantities so it’s a minor complaint. Overall it’s been helpful..Version: 3.7.3
✓ Great app for tracking your decksTells you the active price and can pull cards pretty fast to very fast. Sometimes it’s a little hard to get it to scan but I would say the scanning is 90-95% accurate. Love it, will continue to use..Version: 3.7.5
✓ Fantastic card management solutionDevice: IPad Pro 2020 Length of use: 2 months Disclaimer: *subscriber* This review will focus on my experience thus far as a paid subscriber. If you are like me, you have probably tried out many different card management apps that offer a scan method for ingesting your card data. To make it short, this is no difference. We all know that the scan method is a gimmick. Under the right circumstances you can scan cards as expected. Once you throw in some off angled lighting, sleeved cards or even a backdrop of carpet the scan method seems to stop working. I use the text method for searching for cards. It is by far the easiest way I have found. Better than the competition. What I like about this application over the rest is the user interface. Time and research was spent on making this as user friendly as possible. All I can say is try this out. So far I am very happy and will continue to support the app by subscribing..Version: 3.0.1
✓ ScannerIt would be very helpful if you could set the scanner so every card you scan goes into a folder by itself. Like setting it to send all cards to the White Card Folder instead of having to do it individually. Maybe have a setting to put cards into folders by the color of the card, rarity, cmc, set, etc. I like the app so far but some settings for the scanner would be very nice. I’m a free user..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Loving the app so far. One tiny question/suggestionHello there! Just want to say I’m absolutely loving the app. The UI is structured very well. The scanner works great. Great work you guys. One suggestion/question. Is there a way to sort your cards by rarity? Whenever I click “sort” it shows me that I can sort by name and price. I was wondering if there was a way to see my Mythic's, followed by Rares, etc. I may just be missing where I can do that though. Thank you!!.Version: 3.6.3
✓ Pretty GoodI like that they give me updates, I can make a wishlist, add deck lists etc. I wish I could my my deck out of my inventory and not have to input cards twice. It would also be great if there was a way to copy a deck so that it’s easy to make adjustments and save a similar deck. Like a standard version and a commander version. Also the scanner is just ok, if the card is foil or if the card has a sleeve it’s unreliable. I do not see a way to export a list if I want to sell cards..Version: 3.7.7
✓ Can’t login - resolvedI’ve updated my review. Customer service was able to get me logged in, quick to respond. I rated 4 stars because of the login issue, even trying to create a new registration wouldn’t let me login...I’m not sure what went wrong, but it seems to be fixed now, for me at least..Version: 2.1.2
✓ A nice resource for card managementI used to keep track of my collection via mtgprice’s website but after they changed their policies to a subscription service I ended up just being locked out of my data. I happened upon this app a while ago and while the UI is a bit touchy it fits with what I needed. Pros: •Inventory tracking •Price Tracking •Card Scanner •List Creations •A variety of filtering/sorting options •Deck creation •A fair subscription price for ad-free management, price alerts, price charting, and updates Cons: •Deck Creation is not adjustable for EDH/Commander format •Scanner is very quick with the capture feature and sometimes (rarely) doesn’t know what the card is I’m still testing it out but over the last month of using it I decided to try out the subscription service. I’ll may update later..Version: 3.7.7
✓ Love it!Some of the prices are a bit bad at auto updating from what I’ve seen thus far, but there’s no better way to upload your collection. The scanner is crazy great and super fast compared to alternatives..Version: 3.5.3
✓ Great, but needs improvementsThis app has been really awesome for scanning in cards and being able to see the value of my decks. There is a big problem though in the way of, if you have your deck, in “Decks” it will not show up in your “Inventory”. If you want a deck to show in your inventory, you first have to create a folder and then manually add each card one by one..Version: 3.7.1
✓ The greatest advancement in collection management since cardboard boxes!This app is the way of the future! No more spending weeks manually entering cards online to check their prices and document your collection. No! You have Dragon Shield’s MTG Scanner! You just point your camera at a card and BAM! DONE! Thank you Dragon Shield..Version: 3.6.3
✓ All I ever wanted!This app is a masterpiece!.Version: 3.5.2
✓ Don’t Buy ItSorry. Gotta give ‘2.0’ a terrible review. Simple things like sorting inventory based on price is no longer included; it’s a massive (costly) upgrade. Several of the lauded new ‘updates’ are all ‘coming soon’ - but you gotta pay now. The improved card scanning function had its ups and servers downs. Case in point: it cannot scan a foiled card (at least none of mine worked). Even sorting decks alphabetically is no longer a function. The original version was not perfect, but it worked great and many of its small positives appear to have been lost in this new version. I regret spending $30 on this new version. Save your money and buy an extra shock or fetch land (which it also won’t be able to scan)..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Expensive subscriptionThe prices for the lower subs seems about right but the last sub is a bit expensive. Would also like it if the screen would rotate so I could use my keyboard when the scanner cant read my cards.Version: 2.1.4
✓ Useful for price checking and translating foreign cards!Been using it for quite a while for those two reasons. However, there are some issues I came across and some suggestions I have in mind that may improve my experience. - Have the price check available in £, I use Cardmarket’s prices and they’re only in €s. - Improve scanning on Sagas, Classes and land cards.Version: 3.5.2
✓ AMAZING!!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 :)..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Wish I knew about this sooner!This app is amazing! I love the all features and ease of use! I can’t recommend it enough to anyone who likes to keep track of what cards are in their collection and especially if you buy and sell cards, it makes it so easy to track prices! If I had any criticism it would be that there is no option to add your deck files into your collection easily so you have to scan it all in twice. It would also be nice if it would give market value on your deck folders so you don’t have to duplicate it in your collection if you want to know the value of a deck..Version: 3.6.3
✓ Love it.Saved me potentially hours. The scanning code is crazy easy to use and is so far 100% correct. Love it. Love it.Version: 3.5
✓ Good Quality, still in developmentLacks 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..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Love it!The app is amazing for keeping track of my cards and what I have and the value of them. Keep up the good work! I use all three of your apps. Not sure if you have more 🧐.Version: 3.6.1
✓ A wonderful appAn absolutely wonderful app. My only problem is that it is a tad tedious to input large amounts of cards..Version: 3.6
✓ Fix Card Type PulldownGreat app, except when selecting which version of the card you have for inventory or deck. The picture reflects what you chose, but the pull down still shows the previous selection. It would help peace of mind to change the pulldown to what you select..Version: 3.6
✓ Amazing scanner. Features could be better.Pros: -Scanner is insanely fast, accurate, and works on virtually any surface. - gives you high, low, and market prices, along with win/loss percentages and other valuable tools for analyzing your investment. -allows you to create custom deck and inventory folders to suit your sorting needs. Cons: - My biggest complaint *by far* is that there is no export/import function. You can save or send your lists as text documents, and that’s it. This is a major issue considering you’re spending countless hours scanning, and can only use them for this app. - the decklist function is very barebones, and is essentially just a separate inventory folder. Very little analytics or tools for deck building. Conclusion: This app has probably the best scanner out of them all, and is primarily designed for value tracking, with its robust monetary analytics, but is very lacking in deck building and player features. The absence of an import/export function is almost a dealbreaker, as there are many other apps with different useful features and purposes that would accept these files..Version: 3.6
✓ Great App and SupportThe App is incredibly easy to categorize and inventory your cards. The scanning feature is amazing (especially given I have thousands of cards to inventory ) . Shows how much I have invested and current values for selling and trading. The support team responds right away when you have questions or something is buggy. I recommend this app to anyone that collects MTG cards... I use it almost daily..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Great appMoved everything over easy and has plenty of room for new content, more stuff to come so can’t wait for that. Got all my cards organised and I can now chance the order of all my sets no problem..Version: 1.0.4
✓ I love this appThis app is perfect, I can keep track of all my cards and the price of them. I can also keep track of my decks and save them for later. Ty for making this app, you guys are the best!.Version: 3.4
✓ Transferring from inventory to deck list is neededLove the app!! Great at almost everything, except I was I could move what I have in my inventory into my deck with a button. other than that, it’s a phenomenal app, and would always recommend using..Version: 3.7.5
✓ Amazing amazing app!Love it to bits. Use it everyday.Version: 3.5.3
✓ Truly well done!Having built software and designed UX, I have to say that I’m impressed with what they’ve done here. Sure it’s not perfect, but it damn near it. Above all, it doesn’t look like garbage, it’s well-thought out and I have no doubt, will continue to be. Less moaning from our community and more appreciation for hard work like this. Congrats to your team and thanks for making the pricing reasonable 🙌 My only feedback, change that logo. It does a disservice to the quality app you’ve built..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Missing SomethingI found out about this app through a previous app that told me to install it because it was being discontinued, so I downloaded it. The app is great, even better than the one that was discontinued. I like how you can scan a card (using the camera) and it shows up. However, the search tab is missing something: filters. What if someone is looking for a particular card, they know what the main type of card is, and the subtype, but don’t know the name. It would make searching for a card a whole lot better than just scrolling through the bajillion cards found in the database..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Good Interface, but can't really export to other programs.The previous devs had a good thing but tried to implement an extremely poor subscription model into the app. I am pleased with how Dragon Shield has wrapped that into a much smaller subscription, but also not paywalled basic features. One problem I have is that I cannot export decks easily to any other programs. I would like to be able to export to MTG Goldfish, TappedOut, or Archidekt so I can get feedback from friends, but the deck list that this app exports is not at all compatible with those. I would have to run it through excel to get a usable list which isn't really the best user experience..Version: 3.5.2
✓ Problem with advanced searchI only use this app as a way to search for specific cards and recently I haven’t been able to select a card type in the advanced search settings which includes type, supertype, and subtype. Besides that I’ve had no issues with the app and have been really thankful that I can use it when I’m not connected to the internet..Version: 3.4
✓ Pretty good for collection managementI got this app specifically to use the card scanner function to make cataloging my cards way easier. While the scanner is really cool, it only functions correctly part of the time. Sometimes I scan a card and it tells me it’s a completely different one, and sometimes I can even scan a random part of my ceiling and it will tell me I’m looking at a card. As a suggestion, perhaps the scanner could be a bit more stringent when recognizing cards? Other than that, the other functions of this app are really nice!.Version: 3.1.2
✓ Need a search optionI like this app but i would like an option that i can write for exemple : « Bird of Paradise » and the app show me where are all my Birds of Paradise... Thank you!.Version: 2.1
✓ So easy to use and so much informationI am a huge MTG collector. I have over 20k cards. I have given up so many times on apps because of the time sink. DragonShield truly put effort into this scanner. It scans almost faster than I can put the card in front of it. The database is huge and I like that I can make adjustments to my scanned card on the fly. I am having fun again and the options for sorting made my day. Thank you for this app!.Version: 3.7.5
✓ Incredible App With One CriticismI 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!.Version: 3.6.3
✓ Pretty good! Just needs one thing…Got this app recently and it works pretty well! You may have to double check that the app gets the correct set for each card though, which will slow you down a little. Overall very pleased with the scanner part of the app, though. Scanned 2,000+ cards this past weekend by myself! Just one thing I wish this app had…it would be so, so helpful if the deck building function gave you the ability to add cards straight from your “inventory” lists, rather than having to re-scan or search cards by name from the entire library. As far as I can tell, you can’t even filter your search results to show only cards that you own in your inventory. Imho, this would be a HUGE help to users who are interested in building decks using cards that they’ve already scanned into their inventory..Version: 3.7.7
✓ Fix Needed; Feature RequestAlthough the Type feature now works with the advanced search, it still needs to be fixed. When I select multiple Types, it is creating OR statements. It makes much more sense to have AND statements with the Type search. Also, please give us the ability to view both sides of two-sided cards. Thanks!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Good but needs some fixesI really like the way this app is laid out and how easy and straightforward the scan feature is. It’s already helped me sort my 30k card collection and find the high value cards. My issue with it is that it seems buggy. There are some cards it simply refuses to scan no matter what, and it occasionally gets “stuck” where every scan results in showing the same random card, which can only be fixed with a restart. The other thing is that text search seems painfully slow to get results, and those seem buggy as well, like cards that don’t include the search terms showing up in the results, but only sometimes. Ultimately I’m really glad this app exists, and it does what it’s supposed to, it just needs a few wrinkles ironed out..Version: 3.0.2
✓ A few features wantedThis app is great. I love being able to scane a card and have pop up with price and all that. However. The deck builder portion is a bit difficult to work with. Adding the cards is easy. Adding them to the inventory is not. 1. Can there be a checkbox or button that adds all cards in a created deck to your inventory? 2. Can there be a drop-down option to set what format a certain deck is? For example if a deck is EDH/Commander, then set the image to be the commander and have a specific category for the card itself. 3. Set codes along side the full name and symbol of the set? Ie, 2X2, ONE, IKO, DMU, etc. 4. Double counting of cards. If I have 100 cards in my deck and in my inventory, I shouldn't see 200 total. I should only see 100 since they're the same cards if the option to count the cards in inventory is checked or whatever. Or don't count the deck cards as part of the inventory. All in all, a good app but could have a few updates..Version: 3.7.7
✓ Best mtg appThe scanner is so fast. Turned my Month work into a few days..Version: 3.5.2
✓ Excellent, Missing A Few But ExcellentThere are many many pros to this app, thus the five star review. The scan is immediate, and the organization is superb. I’m mainly just writing this review to mention to the devs that not all the cards are in the data base yet, as I can’t scan a few of the cards from Adventures In The Forgotten Realms set. Thank you again for a fantastic experience so far, I look forward to the future of what’s in store for this app..Version: 3.6.3
✓ Liked old version betterI mainly use the app for quickly searching cards by name and sometimes by keyword and abilities. This new version makes it harder to search for cards. There’s no filtering function based on keywords, types, colors, etc. It feels like an honest downgrade..Version: 1.0.1
✓ How to exit scan mode?It’s a great app but where did the Back button go in scan mode? Is it covered by the lightbulb? Once you are in scan mode, the only way to exit is to close the App? Something is not right..Version: 3.7.4
✓ It works again & works greatDeveloper was relatively quick in fixing a problem and it’s back to being my favourite MTG app again.Version: 3.7.5
✓ Dragon shield!!I downloaded every app I could find that can scan cards and maintain a digital version of my card collection. This is the one that stuck :D It’s been great so far but a little limited still. I’ve used the export feature to copy a csv into TopDecked in order to take advantage of their more advanced filtering features. I am eagerly awaiting further development here, looking forward to the “soon” labels to drop on some of the UI. 9/10 cards scan very quickly, once in awhile I have to manually enter (more common for things like Saga cards and more unusual card layouts). I would love to have more power in filtering, selecting and forming groups of cards. A big part of my initial use case was pricing all of my old collection. Would be awesome for me to be able to sort simply by card price, not just profit percentage. So far it’s been great, but it does fee a bit “under construction” ala late 90s angelfire sites (shout out to my early html heads). ✌️ great app, will update this review after the next few updates :P.Version: 2.1.3
✓ Thank you Dragon ShieldI’ve followed this app since the legacy MTG Manager app, and was so disgusted with the pricing model the previous developers came up with that I actually stopped cataloging my cards despite being half way through my collection of 20,000+ cards into this database. It was literally more worth it for me to abandon all that time spent scanning than to use this app. That has changed. I see dragon shield has made this free to catalog, and all other features are bundled into a premium subscription, at $20/year. (Previous developers were asking $100+/ year subscription JUST to have your card slots available for scanning. THANK YOU for making this app accessible and FAIRLY priced. I am excited to start cataloging my collection again. With the right marketing this platform could quite honestly revolutionize card collecting, i have always seen so much potential in this app!!.Version: 3.0
✓ Need import function. Please!From what I’ve used of the app and seen so far it looks amazing!!! Until there’s an import option I just cannot justify adding any cards. I’ve spent hundreds of hours inputting cards on a different MTG app. Cannot bring myself to start from scratch. Until such time I cannot start using this app :(.Version: 3.5.3
✓ Handy, but some key issuesIncredibly useful for tracking desk lists and prices but devs, please let me see at least the total value of my decks without having to re-enter the decklist into the binder..Version: 1.1.0
✓ Great appApp does everything I need it to do but a swipe function within a search result would be advantageous hence the 4/5.Version: 3.6.3
😕 MTG Scanner - Dragon Shield Negative Reviews
