### 1/5 — Erkennung funktioniert nicht…

*2026-05-11, version 1.8*

Die App erkennt nicht eine Einzige meiner Karten richtig! Für mich also Sinn und Zweck komplett verfehlt! Wird wieder gelöscht…

### 1/5 — Poorly Made

*2026-04-25, version 1.8*

This has got to be the worst app. Explained itself very well yet doesn’t even seem to scan the card. Just flicks between a bunch of random cards

### 5/5 — Fantastic quick, simple, scanning app

*2025-06-07, version 1.8*

10/10

### 4/5 — Fast Scans, But buggy

*2025-04-25, version 1.6*

most of the bugs seem to be not understanding what version of the card it seems. For any of my Dalmatian puppies, even though I was adding it, it was adding the wrong number to include any of the puppies, so none of them were included. No idea what happened.

for a handful of regular cards, it would detect the enchanted, and I would try to add it, but it was still not showing off the import for enchanted or regular. meaning it was just not taking inventory when I was scanning it no matter how many times I added it. I think this has something to do with numbers in the system and numbers on import for a dream born.

and finally, many of the cards would show the wrong artwork, but it would show the correct title. It was a bit confusing, but those cards seem to be added just fine.

### 5/5 — Simple but Effective

*2025-03-09, version 1.6*

The card scanner is quite accurate, and it did not produce an incorrect match in the group of 300+ cards I scanned from sets 2-5.

I also appreciate the export CSV feature to Dreamborn.

Thank you for adding set 6 and 7 support!

### 5/5 — Super praktisch

*2025-03-09, version 1.6*

Glimmer Scan hat mir geholfen über 1.000 Karten in kürzester Zeit zu katalogisieren und auf dreamborn.ink zu importieren. Danke für die Arbeit an dieser App! :)

### 5/5 — Working Great - Missing Latest Cards

*2025-03-09, version 1.5*

it's fast and one of the best ways to export to Dreamborn.ink. Looking forward to using it on my latest batch of cards for Archazias Island.

### 3/5 — Has trouble with a lot of cards.

*2025-02-03*

It's fast when it works, but out of stack of maybe 100 cards it was only able to properly find half of them.

### 1/5 — Abandoned

*2024-12-28, version 1.5*

The app is outdated, and the developer does not respond to support or info requests. Great app, unfortunately it’s been abandoned completely.

### 5/5 — Super Easy!

*2024-12-27, version 1.5*

Super easy to use and a great way to easily keep your collection up to date!
