### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2026-04-19*

No cloud storage, no login. Randomly wiped my entire card collection with no option to restore. Never use.

**Developer response:** Hi, I'm sorry you had issues with the app. I have kept this without storage and login as the goal is simply to make it easier to scan cards and upload them to Dreamborn. This app is not design to be a full collection manager in any way. If that was unclear from the app description, I apologize. Wiping the entire collection is a bug I haven't seen before, but if you provide details about what you were doing in the app prior to that, I'd be happy to look into it for other users.

### 1/5 — Sucks

*2026-03-12*

Thinks every card is blue fairy. Needs a rescan option instead of constantly backing out of batch scan. and a focus option so we don’t have to constantly back out of scan mode. and a choose which camera lense option so it’s not always off to the side. Sick of moving the phone around because it doesn’t know what to do

### 2/5 — Blitzschnell ist relativ

*2026-05-15*

Also bei mir werden die Karten erkannt. Aber bis der identifizieren Ton kommt vergehen manchmal 15 Sekunden.  So ist das nicht zu gebrauchen, sorry.

### 2/5 — Will not exsport

*2025-12-31*

Won’t fill the csv file with wisperingwell cards does not work with Dreamborn

**Developer response:** Hello,

Thank you for trying out the app. A bug was just identified with how Dreamborn expects the new Whispers in the Well cards. A new version (1.5.9) is in review now to address this problem. I apologize for the issue, and hope you'll give the app a second chance once the new version with the fix is released. Please feel free to reach out to the support email if you'd like an update when it is released.

Best,
The Lorscana Team

### 3/5 — Incredibly slow and finnicky

*2026-06-22*

I have to finagle the card into place for a while before finally getting a “card detected” notice and then sit there for 10-30+ seconds per card before it actually recognizes it. I’m in a well lit room with no glare and a blank white background, so I’m not sure what else it wants to be table to scan cards faster.

### 3/5 — Scanning works/not export

*2025-12-26*

Not sure why but when I try to export my collection none of my whispers of the well cards transfers to dreamborn. Tried to transfer 532 cards only 309 make it.

**Developer response:** Hello, 

Thank you for trying out the app. A bug was just identified with how Dreamborn expects the new Whispers in the Well cards. A new version (1.5.9) is in review now to address this problem.

### 3/5 — Scanning Finnicky

*2025-04-24*

The cards seem to be recognized pretty quickly, but I find that I have to move my phone after every 3 to 5 scans to have it actually check if there is a card within the frame.

also, it would be nice if the app could utilize the entire camera frame. I use another app that helps me scan magic cards and the angle of this app seems to be unable to use the same 3-D printed card slinger.

**Developer response:** Thank you for getting the app, and the feedback. I am always working to make scanning better. There are quite a few card slingers out there, so I am not sure which one you're using. If you want to reach out at lorscana@gmail.com, and let me know which of the card slingers you're using. I'd be happy to get one, and use it to test with to improve scanning for you. I'll also look into the other issue with having to move the phone every so often. Again, thank you for feedback, and I hope I can improve your scanning experience.

### 5/5 — Perfect card scanner

*2026-03-14*

Highly recommend this to any Lorcana fan. It makes scanning and organizing fast and easy. The scanner is surprisingly accurate, and it pulls up the card information almost instantly.
I also love how clean and intuitive the interface is. You can tell the developer really understands what Lorcana players and collectors actually need. The app runs smoothly, updates quickly.

### 5/5 — Almost flawless

*2025-12-30*

Definitely the best Lorcana card scanner by far.  This app makes cataloging cards a breeze.  

For some reason, it doesn’t seem to import cards into chapter 10 Dreamborn, despite scanning successfully. I haven’t figured out if this is a Dreamborn issue or a Lorscana app issue.

### 5/5 — Awesome App & Developer

*2025-08-04*

This makes tracking cards super simple! The developer is also super responsive and is happy to take feedback!

### 5/5 — Focused and effective

*2025-04-27*

This is the kind of app we all want more of. It does what it says, does it well, and doesn’t hide behind ads or subscriptions. The app is a bargain and absolutely worth all the time you’re going to save.

### 5/5 — Best way to scan Lorcana cards!

*2025-04-06*

I scanned my entire card collection. It was wildly easy and really accurate.

### 5/5 — It’s a great app

*2025-03-10*

I think the app is amazing. I think you should add pictures to show people where to go in  dreamborn I got confused the first time in settings. The app is great though.
