#1 Mtg app
This has been one of the most reliable apps I have used over the years. Yes it has had its moments. The owners always address issues in a timely manner. I have never recommended another app for pricing.
Subscription fatigue
This isn’t really something that needs a subscription? Previously paid for all features to be unlocked, and now dev wants a monthly payment to get them back. I’ll be moving to ManaBox as a free alternative.
Capitalism at its finest
I bought this app a long time ago as it was basically the only app of its kind on iOS. Took a long break from Magic, came back and now it has a subscription model. It shafts the people who purchase the app previously. In a situation like this, it would have been better to sunset the app and make a new one with the subscription model. I can’t even look up card arts via previous sets. There had to be a better way to go about doing this.

Paid for the app, then the terms changed
I paid $6.99 for this app in November 2025. Later, the developer switched to a monthly subscription model and converted my previous purchase into monthly credits.
The problem? Those credits apparently started ticking down whether I was using the app or not.
I hadn’t opened the app in months, so by the time I came back, the value they substituted for my purchase had been disappearing simply because time had passed. How was I supposed to know I needed to keep checking an app I’d already paid for to make sure my purchase hadn’t effectively been put on an expiration timer?
I understand developers change their pricing models. Charge new customers whatever subscription price you want. But retroactively converting an existing customer’s paid purchase into credits that expire over time is a terrible way to treat people who supported your app early on.
I have the Apple receipt showing my $6.99 purchase on November 29, 2025.
Very disappointing. I paid for the app. I expected that purchase to be honored, not quietly converted into a countdown.

Switched to ManaBox
This app used to be the bomb however I recently updated versions and now can no longer view card images nor update card database without a paid “premium” subscription. There is nothing premium about a paid app that functions worse than a free one. Just my 2 cents.
