Phenomenal!

Super-quick scanning! Seems to do a better job with low-light and reflections than other apps. Great options for organization, and easily allows you to customize things how you want. Highly recommended!

So Frustrating 3rd Restart

I really wanted to like this app and I paid for all of the advanced features. At first, I thought it was my problem and use her era but the more that I started to play with this I realize that it was just flawed. Number one you canโ€™t search your own library. Number two you canโ€™t easily edit the folders that you set up for your cards. Iโ€™m sorry but this is a few major releases from prime time. Some of the most basic things arenโ€™t even taken into consideration.. This is an example of vibecoding something without testing it with real users.

Ripoff

Bought the lifetime membership to them on their old legacy app. They re-released the app and deleted their legacy app. Trash. Think twice before spending money on this app. Theyโ€™ll just release a new one in a couple years and youโ€™ll have to spend the money again.

The Best MTG Collection App Iโ€™ve Used

Helvault has basically become the home for my entire Magic collection.

I have cards spread across binders, boxes, folders and decks, and I love that I can track not only what I own, but where everything is physically located. That has made managing a larger collection so much easier.

The scanner works really well. I have used it for everything from adding a few new Secret Lair cards to scanning much larger batches, and it makes the process quick and easy. I also like that I can switch between pricing sources like TCGplayer and Card Kingdom depending on how I want to look at the value of my collection.

One of the biggest things for me is being able to export my collection as a CSV. I use that file constantly for deck building, checking what cards I own and keeping track of what is already being used across my Commander decks. The iCloud backup and syncing between my iPhone and iPad are also really important when you have put this much time into organizing a collection.

I did run into a syncing issue with my phone, but my collection is also very large. Once my iPad finished fully syncing, newly scanned cards started coming through correctly. Having the cloud backup available gave me some peace of mind while I worked through it.

There are other apps that can track prices or build decks, but Helvault is the app I actually trust with my collection. It is easy to use, gives me the organization tools I need and has become a huge part of how I collect, sort and build Magic decks.
