Huge potential
I really want to like this app, it’s well designed and easy to use. The only real problem I have with this app is the speed at which it scans cards. I thought that using the iPhone camera to scan with this running on my Mac would make things just as fast or even faster than manabox. Sadly this doesn’t seem to be the case. It takes seconds for the app to scan the card, and sometimes up to half a minute or longer before there is a hit. I tried looking through the settings to see if there was something I missed but I did not see options for faster scanning or the ability to download a database to make things faster. I hope it isn’t locked behind the paywall, I do see myself paying for an app like this since I love the potential it has but I would like to see the speed on this increase. Keep up the good work

Free limitations are not clearly communicated anywhere. You can only inventory up to 100 unique cards without paying. This limitation is not clear upfront.
Interface and scanning function are good. Very visually comfortable. Would recommend only if you buy.

Good point. We just released Version 1.21 adding an intro dialog that explains the pricing (if you aren't subscribed yet). Thanks for this very thoughtful review!
Enhancement request
(I added some details for my first request) You guys are awesome. Thank you for hearing me out and fixing the importing bug. I have few more requests:
1. When I am scanning the cards, the list of scanned cards does not autoscroll (to the top of the list, where the new cards are being added), therefore, after 4th card, I have to scroll manually to top, for each additional card, to check the newly scanned card. This is inconvenient, because the top cards get hidden, as I scan more cards and the list grows longer than the allotted space, and I need to manually keep on scrolling to the top for each new scan. This makes it hard for me to check if the new card was scanned correctly. Also the app sometimes double scans, when I take too long to feed in another card into the scanning stand. This leads to my next request item:
2. The scanner would scan the same card again, if I take a little break while scanning it with a card scanner stand. The scanner would scan the same card that is in front of the camera, because I did not feed a new card to the stand before camera reactivates. It would be great if the scanner will not auto scan the same card in front of it, if there was no movement detected by the camera.
3. There is no way for me to delete multiple cards from my collection. I have to select one card at a time. Is it possible to allow me to delete selection of cards? Maybe option to select multiple cards with checkbox to delete all selected cards at once?
These fixes will make this app closer to perfection. Thanks again. Really appreciate the quick update.

Thanks a lot! We are adding 2 & 3 to the todo list. The scan list doesn't autoscroll because new cards will be added at the top!

Hello devs, this app is great. Except, I cannot add cards to the cube list without adding them to my collection. Can you make it so that I can import the cube list, but show all the cards in red if I do not have any of the cards in the cube? Also, it will be great if I can remove selections of cards from my collection rather than one at a time.

How to import to cube without adding to collection: 1. Import, 2. Check "Add to cube", 3. DON'T check "Save in collection, 4. Save. Switch to list view to show card numbers in red where you have too few.
A hidden gem
Does everything I was hoping for including cube!
