### 3/5 — Gets the job done

*2026-08-11, version 2.2.5*

Very solid. Hasn’t been updated in 6 years, but there’s just nothing else. Artificer is practically unusable. CardCreator functions great no bugs

### 4/5 — Good app but…

*2026-08-06, version 2.2.5*

I wish you could put static abilities on planes, walkers, and also having it so that you could make saga’s would be nice too

### 5/5 — Perfect For Everything

*2026-07-02, version 2.2.5*

This app is what I wanted, after about 10 apps, I found this, it’s not Pokémon cards, it’s a unique card pack look. It is brilliant for printing out cards and saving them. If you want to make your own card pack, I prefer to use this app, the text isn’t too small like the other app I checked out, Card Creator is the app for you! But 2 Glitches and suggestions, 1. please add a search bar for seeing cards, and also, 2. The photo place, where you take a photo of the picture you want to use, why is the camera turnt at 90 Degrees? Left is up. Up is right, right is down, down is left, so please fix that, but overall amazing! 5 Stars.

You saved my butt, Thank you Card Creator

### 5/5 — Awesome, couple of things though.

*2026-07-01*

This app is actually so much easier to use than other apps, and ever since MTG cardsmith implemented the 30-card limit this place has been a lifesaver. 
There are a few obscure card types missing such as battles, plane cards and others, but that matters very little. The basics are here and that means the rest can be made with a few simple extra steps (I do it all the time by making plane cards out of land cards)!
However, there is one glaring problem: the difficulty of selecting images. The way it’s done is very confusing, and the size of the photo library is tiny. If this was updated, I’d say this would be a masterpiece of an app. 
This is an amazing app, and I’m glad it isn’t demanding money for everything. Thank you a lot for this masterpiece.

### 4/5 — Honestly great

*2026-04-03*

I think this app is awesome, I love being able to bring literally whatever I want to life. I have two minor, personal complaints, though. I would like to see a better way of unloading pictures, the current way is kinda buggy and not very intuitive. Also, I’d like to see an update where we get more card designs, like full art, Sagas, and maybe double sided (transform) cards! Other than that, great app, I would highly recommend if you like magic, being creative or being wacky.

### 3/5 — Really good app!!!

*2026-02-27, version 2.2.5*

Really good card creator. Highly recommend. The only issue is that the glossary is not very updated and does not have definitions for many effects at all. I would really appreciate if you added more! Thx!

### 4/5 — Suggestions

*2026-01-28, version 2.2.5*

Overall great app that is flexible and easy to work with, just wish the following were actual features:
-Ability to add Saga Enchantments
-It doesn’t delete your work if you don’t click ‘save’ while creating Planeswalker abilities
-Text on token creatures
-Add other tokens, not just token creatures without having to go in and change it every single time
-Able to toggle full-art
-If I have music in the background while creating, which I usually do, it pauses when I go to import an image
-Battles/Sieges (Landscape arts)

Hope this helps!

### 1/5 — Camera issues

*2026-01-16, version 2.2.5*

When you go to add an image, it wants to take a picture instead of letting you add a image

### 4/5 — Great but could be better

*2025-12-04, version 2.2.5*

Overall I love this for making my sets but It would be great to get double sided cards.

### 5/5 — Great Game, Can be Improved

*2025-11-10*

This game is super helpful for designing Magic cards, but there are a few things that it isn’t capable of: 1. You can’t add abilities to tokens. 2. You can’t make your own expansion symbol. 3. For planeswalkers, you can only have 3 abilities, no more no less, which means you can’t have static abilities. 4. It would be helpful if the game kept track of the amount of each type of card you have in each folder. It would make set building much easier 5. You can’t make the oracle text have italics, of which you need in order to write some keywords like “raid” or “morbid” or fathomless descent” 6. You can’t add the symbol that means the card is double sided. Thank you for reading my opinion. Also, for those of you thinking about becoming a patron: it’s definetly worth it!

Hello :-) This is an update addressing the issue of "cards from the future" popping up in the feed and adding a small tweak, suggested by a few Patrons. Happy designing and be safe!

### 2.2.4 — 2020-04-04

Hello :-) I know the Community tab started to behave erratically and some of you had problems publishing cards. Hopefully this update, along with improved server capabilities, should get rid of these problems. However, if you ever encounter any issues, do not hesitate to drop me a line — I’m here to help!

As always, a short review of the app is much appreciated! If you have two minutes to spare, I'd be much obliged if you left one. Thanks!

### 2.2.3 — 2020-02-19

This mainly is a bug fix release. I finally managed to nail the legendary toggle bug and the legendary frames frame bug. I would like to thank all the Awesome Users who reported these and provided me with details and even screen recordings — they really helped!

I also managed to squeeze in one quality-of-life thing: the default cards are a thing of the past, now. Goodbye, Fierce Warriors! Goodbye, Estotas! No more default cards published to the Community card pool!

For more details, please update the app and read the "What's new" notes (you'll find them in app Settings, if you're a new user).

[v2.2.3] Bugfix update:
– fixed creature card type not having Power/Toughness box present.

P.S. I'm not asking for reviews when you're focused on designing cards, so – since you're reading this – could you do me a solid and leave a review for the app? They really help and I read all of them! Thank you!
