Worst App Update Ever!

The new version caused me to lose all my decks, like many other people. The new UI is absolutely terrible, I don’t know how anyone can consider this a positive update. Save your money and find something else!

This was the BEST deck builder before the last update. Please roll it back.

Perfect for MTG - easy to use

New update looks great. Will be perfect again after the deck testing feature is fully implemented. Always timely set updates. Best thing about this app is that according to Apple it does not collect any user data! Awesome. Thanks TJ Soft for keeping it real.

Lack of support

I’ve been using Decked Builder since it was first available only on the iPhone and got this as soon as it came out. I’ve loved the products, but as they’ve diversified they’ve become less attentive. They still haven’t released the database update for the set released 2 weeks ago. When I contacted support I wasn’t given a timeline or date for release. Instead I was told to join their Beta program to test new software for them.

Unacceptable, and not what I’ve paid for. I have 3 Apple devices I’ve bought this app on, and I’ll be looking elsewhere now.

Buggy

I have the iPhone version and it’s good. This one can’t even get the database updated to the latest version…

Great for collection and deck building

Been using this program for a number of years now. Love it’s search features and how I can manage my collection with it. Makes building decks easier as I know what cards I own or not.

Terrible app

Can’t import files from TCGPlayer. Can’t delete and manage decks. I want my $2.99 back!

Longtime ipad User

I’ve been using this app for years and I couldn’t be happier with it. It started off pretty great and they’ve steadily improved it over the years. Easy to search your collection (or all mtg cards) for useful words or phrases like “when a dragon enters” or “sacrifice an artifact”
Extremely useful tool for deck construction.

Waste of money

Don’t buy this if you want something up to date, it’s old and should be taken off the market, very miffed

Waste of Money

First card I searched for wasn’t in the database. Archelos, Lagoon Mystic. Trash application.

Missing Arena Formats

Great app in general, but missing all Arena-only formats, including Historic, Brawl, and Historic Brawl. Will update to 5 stars when those are included. Perfect app for brewing builds, but without those formats it's missing key functionality for mtg in the age of Covid -19.

Excellent Deck Manager

I’ve been using Decked ever since it came out and have found it an excellent deck building app as well as an awesome collection manager.

Awesome

Very complete. Love it!

The only thing missing is a way to check off the cards in your virtual deck as you build your physical deck.

No longer the king it once was

Still passable, good enough

Still lists silver-border stuff as commander legal, and has no ability to search by color identity, making it much weaker for that format

Great app

Best app on iPad for mtg that I know of.

Still a lot to be done

Don‘t get me wrong. The app is good...but.
Considering the price and no lite version (only for iPhone)... I was surprised for example the the filtering options are very, very basic. You cannot even set or select sub-types let alone oracle text. Also seem to have trouble importing .dec files saved with other apps.
At the price I was hoping to see the best of TopDecked and uMagic combined into one app. But no such luck.
Please developers: have a look at these 2 for some inspiration on how to turn this into a truly great app!

Needs help

I love the version on ipad but the version on iPhone STINKS...I purchased the camera scan for ipad but it will not apply for the iPhone it wants to charge me again. Please help if you can.

Thanks

Cam Scan needs work

Great app but cam scan needs to be able to scan all sets. Other free apps do this without issue. The FAQ states it is due to CPU lacking enough power but just knowing many other apps already do this makes me think that a false statement.

Incredible

This app is easily the greatest asset to me in regards to MTG. From organizing my collection, to building new decks, Decked Builder has it all. Trying to organize my collection in the past has been very difficult, but with this I'm able to add, delete, and change my collection very quickly. In regards to building decks, Decked Builder is a must. Building a deck (outside of drafts) used to take a whole afternoon and half the family room floor, sifting through tubs for hours gave me a head ache. Decked Builder allows me to easily search by any criteria to find cards for my decks that I never would have known existed.

All in all I'm very happy with my purchase of this app. Many complain about the price and the add ons. I would rather have just paid the full amount instead of having to buy each feature individually, but feel that the purchase was well worth it. I have recommended this app to many of my friends and hope the developers will continue to add new and helpful features. After my initial purchases, I would hope any new features would be free. Thank you developers for this incredible app and for putting your time into improving the MTG community!

<Edit> The addition of the Frontier format under the sets criteria part would be welcomed!

Misleading and expensive.

This app should already include the ability to create and save your collection at its current cost of $8.50. The fact that in order to do so costs an additional $4 in-app purchase is ridiculous. Also, to enable card scanning, costs yet another additional $7 in-app purchase... Your app already costs $8.50. Common guys. If I can get a refund, I will.

Excellent for What It Does

The app's functionality is great. Almost all the cards printed are available through it, and I love the "View on Gatherer" button. I like the pricing sources, even though I find some of the prices shown are out of date. I'd suggest some virtual dice or multiple life counters for gameplay, though.

My only complaints are that collections are difficult to deal with (to delete, rename, etc), and a couple expansions like Tempest Remastered are occasionally forgotten, or just not uploaded for a while. Other than that, it's more than worth the money!
