### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2019-02-13, version 2.39*

This is a great app and useful for any netrunner player

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2019-02-11, version 2.39*

I use this all the time, from deckbuilding to simply looking up cards for reference! If you play Netrunner, I don't know how you could get by without this app!

### 5/5 — If you play netrunner it’s a must

*2019-01-17, version 2.38*

I got into netrunner recently, it’s incredible having every card on an app, browsing is super simple and the filters make it easy to plan a deck. Excellent!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2018-12-08, version 2.37*

Looks great, and has always been updated regularly (both for bugs and things like MWL changes). It also syncs with netrunnerdb and jinteki.net: basically this app is more or less perfect in its functionality.

It’s also just been updated to support the new Nisei MWLs and rotations: absolutely fantastic!

### 5/5 — The best deck build app tool!

*2018-11-04, version 2.36*

Simply put, this app should be a model for all apps that purport to help you build a deck for a game.  It works flawlessly for me.  I love it.  I wish star wars destiny had something similar.  One of its best features is in settings where it lets you apply various most wanted list (card balance adjustments) that were set up by ffg when building your list.  If you have a lot of cards then this really is the best way to make a deck.  Thanks to the devs.

### 5/5 — Great Netrunner deck building app!

*2018-09-19, version 2.36*

Quick updates and really good design make this app easy to use. If you play Netrunner this is a must have!

### 5/5 — Prevent 1 Brain Damage

*2018-08-09, version 2.34*

Helps you keep all of your decks straight. A must-have for any player!!

### 5/5 — The best mobile deck building interface by far

*2018-07-31, version 2.34*

I love this app so much that I’m asking the developer to replicate it for all the other games out there: L5R, AGOT, Arkham Horror, etc. The card search is smooth and all encompassing/regularly updated. The connections to NRDB is amazing. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — The only *comprehensive* solution

*2018-07-13, version 2.34*

There are other, similar free apps but none of them are a complete a solution like this one

### 5/5 — Almost perfect

*2018-07-13, version 2.34*

Simple to filter cards, easy to use for browsing and discovering cards I haven’t seen before. The only thing which would make it better would be effect text searching, but no one currently provides that for netrunner.

### 5/5 — Great work!

*2018-07-13, version 2.34*

Being an avid Netrunner fan, this helps me study cards on the go in an attractive package.

### 5/5 — Great tool!

*2018-07-13, version 2.33*

The inventiveness and public spiritedness of the NR community never ceases to astound. This app lets me review and modify decks on the go, and it has essential compatibility with Netrunnerdb.

### 5/5 — Essential app!

*2018-06-19, version 2.33*

The game may be going out of print, but this app will live on as the best way to create and edit decks for Netrunner.

### 5/5 — A Netrunner Staple

*2018-05-20, version 2.33*

An absolutely essential tool for creating and organizing decks.

### 5/5 — My favorite Virtual Resource

*2018-05-18, version 2.32*

This app is a serious boon, allowing me to check cards and decks while on the move, prepping lists for tournaments, and pulling up cards to win arguments with friends.

### 5/5 — Exceptional Implementation

*2018-04-28, version 2.31*

I’m relatively new to Netrunner and, like an insane person, bought every card in the game right off the bat. That is a LOT of cards to manage and learn. Net Deck makes it easy. 

You can browse collections, filter on pretty much any criteria you can think of, and easily build your own deck; all with loads of intuitive options wrapped in a very user friendly design. 

This is pretty much a must-have for all collections. Major kudos and thanks to the developer!

### 5/5 — Indispensable!

*2017-11-20, version 2.26*

If you play Netrunner, you need this app. Clear, easy-to-use, completely unscrapable* deckbuilder with great integration with NetrunnerDB.

*Probably

### 5/5 — Go to app for building decks

*2017-11-01, version 2.25*

I use this app all the time for building decks and searching cards.

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2017-10-01, version 2.24*

I use it quite often to quickly throw an idea of a deck together, the app is easy to use and very well organised.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Doesn't work.

*2016-09-17, version 2.1*

The app can't connect to NetrunnerDB, so it can't sync with my account, update card data, download card images, or basically anything else.

### 1/5 — Blah

*2015-12-10, version 2.2*

Crap

### 4/5 — Can’t log into Jinteki anymore

*2024-12-17, version 2.47*

This has been a great deck builder for years, and really does everything you need it to … except it can no longer interface with Jinteki dot net. The automatic upload of decks to  Jinteki was a great feature and I’m sad that it no longer works.

### 4/5 — Excellent app

*2016-08-07, version 2.13*

This app is brilliant, when I am thinking about making a new deck it helps greatly in structuring to have all the details in front of me whenever I need them. It also helps me keep records of decks I've made.
It would help if the filters could also include filtering through the expansions an cycles, because I have to avoid the cards I haven't yet got.
An excellent app for any Netrunner fan.

### 4/5 — Very useful app

*2016-04-03, version 2.5*

Generally the app does what is meant to: building and managing decks.

Would like to see a common issue solved: When the app is left open and the netrunnerdb password session expires, when we come back to the app we're presented with a series of popups indicating that. Would be enough just to have a single popup.

Also, improving the card search filters (which is already quite good) would be a big plus as I spend sometime searching for cards that have a specific word (e.g. trash) the same way netrunnerdb allows us to do x:"trash"

Keep up the great work!!!

### 4/5 — Great functionality!

*2015-05-06, version 1.5*

This is an amazing offline tool. Excellent searching, building and testing features.

Could update with the latest card packs more quickly.

Minor feature requests:
1. Allow for easy determination of a cards set from in a deck.

2. Allow for building with all sets and then marking with owned sets.  So you can see which cards you need to buy!

### 4/5 — Great A:NR utility

*2015-04-24, version 1.5*

Net Deck is a splendid alternative to online deck building tools.

### 4/5 — Solid

*2014-08-23, version 1.0.8*

Good app. Needs a sort function though so when I pull cards it can be numerical/set order or whatever

### 5/5 — I Don’t know What I’d Do Without It!!

*2024-12-05, version 2.47*

Hands down the best way to build, tune, tweak, sync, import and export Netrunner decks!! Heck, the best way to just learn the cards! It’s sooo convenient and easy to use. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to get into Netrunner (and you should, this game is alive and growing in 2024 and beyond!)

Net Deck has become the #1 used app on my phone. I use it whenever I’ve got 5 minutes. It’s replaced my daily crossword puzzle!

### 5/5 — Excellent tool

*2023-04-01, version 2.47*

The gold standard for Netrunner deckbuilding and storage. A beautifully-implemented, slick and simple app for building, importing, and exporting decks, made all the better for its ability to navigate the post-FFG era. 

One request I would make would be for support of the Netrunner Reboot Project and it’s associated versions of NetrunnerDB and Jinteki (i.e. Reteki). Then I would give it 6 stars.

## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2022-07-20, version 2.47*

This app is amazing for Netrunner Deck building and checking cards. Although there are some minor issues like in the setting the browsing all or selected option not working sometimes and HB can’t add project Vacheron when deck building. Overall this is a very good app. I recommend it to everyone who plays netrunner.

### 5/5 — Slickest Deckbuilder Around

*2022-07-01, version 2.47*

I have spent more hours tinkering with decks on this app than I’m comfortable counting. It’s elegantly built; its minimalist UI is easier to navigate than JNet or NetrunnerDB (plus it syncs to accounts in both places anyway!); and it supports customization for the myriad gametypes and cardpools that NISEI supports. Bravo! 

I have on thing on my wishlist: a slightly more robust feature to test how decks draw! Perhaps incorporating the ability to shuffle cards back in, or (say) tutor for breakers, would allow users to effectively play several rounds solo, getting a feel for each deck before it even hits the table. Still, amazing, amazing app.

**Developer response:** Thank you! I've just released an update that adds SC19 and MWL3 support to the app.

### 5/5 — Love it !

*2021-11-07, version 2.47*

Amazing just what I was looking for ! Keep up the great work

### 5/5 — Best deck building app ever

*2021-06-25, version 2.47*

I used net deck for like 5-6 years I think?Sadly it’s no longer available in mainland China so I switched to US to download the newer version.
Everything is fine but somehow the banlist cannot be updated which is weird.Other than that it’s better than perfect.

### 5/5 — Future Perfect

*2020-03-27, version 2.43*

This app is perfect! So well thought out, so easy to use, updated whenever the game is updated, obviously built by people who play the game! Thanks, I use this daily!

### 5/5 — Great app for deckbuilding

*2020-02-07, version 2.43*

You can select what cards you own and build decks from those sets, you can sync your decklist with netrunnerdb or straight into jinteki to play. Its fantastic, thank you devs 👍🏻

### 5/5 — Absolutely awesome

*2019-05-10, version 2.41*

Love that the dev is continuing support. Leave a tip because it’s good work that he is doing!

### 5/5 — Must have tool

*2019-05-08, version 2.40*

This app has amazing support, and has the same functionality as Netrunnerdb. Perfect for deck building on the go when an idea strikes and you aren’t near a computer.
