Serviceable app in wonky beta stage
[Apple version] The app scans well, has minor UI issues, and is still overcoming some syncing issues due to an unfortunate decision to have automated syncs interrupt human work constantly. There was a persistent issue with old versions of syncs overwriting more recent ones; this may have been fixed recently but I don’t have enough data to confirm. Export functions still don’t work.
All that said, I was able to scan a LARGE collection successfully, and I continue to use this app to manage the collection, build decks, and track deck changes. Search engine is decent once you get over a few quirks. And the support email response ranges from good to excellent.
I expect this app will continue to improve over time. If you’re reading this at least a few months after I try it, I’d give it a whirl.

Can’t Recommend in current state
App is slow and frustrating to use. Scanner works pretty well, but frequently causes the app to crash or freeze up, and I need to force quit and re-open. Additionally, when moving cards between collections, the app will occasionally quietly fail to perform the requested operation. Or it will perform the operation, flash a success message, then immediately undo it. Trying to use this app to keep an inventory of multiple boxes of cards is really frustrating because it is hard to know whether adding cards to a box actually worked and wasn’t undone.
You also can’t export your collection as a list (something I consider basic functionality) unless you pay for a subscription.
I have hopes that this app, which is currently in beta, will one day fix these issues and be a tool I can recommend, but until then I would highly recommend using a different tool to organize your collection.

Hard to keep this rating high, fatal flaws persist in beta version
Since this is a beta product (for Apple) I’ve revised this review a couple of times, based on ongoing experience. I’ve gone from 1 to 2 to 3 and now back to 2 stars.
Things that consistently work:
* The scan function is slick, fast, and works well about 95-99 percent of the time.
* The export function is easy to use.
Things that are problematic:
* Parts of the app are counterintuitive or work strangely - for example, searching for “forest” brings up a long list of cards you’re clearly not looking for plus forest, while if you search for “forest [x]” suddenly it gets super sensitive and nothing comes up.
* The phone app is far less easy to use than the laptop app, for things like editing deck name and image.
Things that are fatal:
* About once every five or six sessions, it will completely erase all recently entered cards during the sync process. I’ve been in regular conversation with the vendor and they’re working on it; but WOW this is a problem. Had to downgrade review until this is fixed for good.
Response from the vendor is slow but polite, and usually informative. I still like this app more than any other I’ve tried, and I’m a fan of entrepreneurs (opposed to corporations who develop a scanning app to move into this space).

Working Great so Far!
Works pretty well. I got logged out and now It’s not recognizing that I paid for premium right. Apple says I’m paying the subscription. I Sign in with Apple & the app asks me to subscribe. All the cards are still there though so temporary problem I guess.
