What's New in Packlens
1.3
October 30, 2026
A fresh look, sharper recognition, and a smoother scan from start to finish. New look · A redesigned app: a calm dark workspace, with card art and drawings on the empty, first-run and error screens. · Every scan video now shows a poster frame instead of a blank box. Better recognition · Cards in toploaders are found and identified. · Pokémon printings are settled more reliably, including cards that pass close together on camera. · New Magic sets show up in New scan as soon as they release. Scanning and review · Booster options are on the first New scan screen. · Review shows the exact versions in a pinned set, and flags a likely second copy pulled right after the first. · A finished scan is kept even if its video has expired. Collector mode · Each scanning session saves as its own list. · A clearer scan screen, with the card back framed in the viewfinder. Sharing · Exports now carry a small "scanned with packlens.app" tag in place of the price disclosure. · New setting: "Show my hits on the homepage" (on by default; turn it off any time). Help when you need it · A guided support panel in the app, and a way to report a shared scan.

How does Packlens identify cards?
Packlens uses advanced recognition technology to identify cards directly from your video footage. While generally accurate, some variance is expected due to the imprecision of recognizing exact printings from video.

The free tier of Packlens allows for short clips and a limited number of scans per week. Upgrading to Pro removes these limits and enhances video storage and output resolution.
