### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-07-08, version 3.6.1*

I love using the digital library to keep track of my collection. Easy to use and scan new cards.

### 5/5 — Day 2 of using

*2026-04-15, version 3.6.1*

App is really cool, I wanted a place to keep inventory of my collection and it seems easy to use so far!

### 5/5 — Best MTG Management App

*2026-03-30, version 3.6.1*

Plenty of technical tools, an easy to use and discoverable interface & the ability to accurately scan (in my experience) 8 cards at a time make CardCastle a 10/10

### 1/5 — I recommend serious reprogramming

*2026-03-30, version 3.6.1*

I just tried to scan “Haliya, Ascendant cadet” the program scanned the card repeatedly and brought back 20 different cards that look nothing like it. That’s just one card. I’m not even going to attempt to use this for my whole collection. I’m having a lot of trouble finding a scanner that will accurately scan my collection using a card slinger and actually bring back the right set data.

### 5/5 — A

*2026-03-10, version 3.6.1*

Fantastic app! Easy to use

### 3/5 — Makes tracking your collection easy but has some rough flaws

*2025-12-28, version 3.6.1*

I can never tell when the app is going to accept a card or not — lighting always seems to be a huge issue. I end up needing to manually import 10% of any batch of cards I am adding to my collection.

### 5/5 — Quick Multiple Scans

*2025-09-03, version 3.6.1*

This is the only app I’ve been able to use to archive my collection without burning out. The scanning is so quick and it can scan several at once. It’s made looking for card prices much easier too.

It’s a great complement to the website, which is where you can easily sort through and categorize each card.

### 5/5 — Essential

*2025-08-28, version 3.6.1*

CardCastle is intuitive, reliable, & streamlines the process of managing cards.

### 5/5 — Good Times

*2025-08-20, version 3.6.1*

I’m am thoroughly enjoying this app. It has everything that I was looking for in a cataloging app and even better I can also use this on my PC.

### 2/5 — Could have been better

*2025-08-13, version 3.6.1*

The app would have been better if it wouldn’t scan hard scan cards sitting in the tray. it starts to add other cards that I don’t even own from the one card that was sitting in the tray like it can’t read. Before you know it I end up with 20 other cards that I don’t own per one card I scan. They really need to fix that.
