## What is Packlens?

Point your camera at a pack opening. PackLens recognizes each card, looks up what it's worth, and renders the names, prices, and a running total straight into your video. Easy as that, ready to post.

How it works
Record or pick a pack-opening clip. PackLens identifies the cards, you confirm anything it wasn't sure about, and it returns your video with a priced overlay burned in, plus a shareable link and a card list you can export.

Collector mode
Scan single cards on-device to build and price a collection, with no upload required.

What you get
· Card names, sets, and collector numbers identified from video
· Daily market price estimates and a pack total
· An overlay burned into your export, sized for YouTube, TikTok, Reels, or Shorts
· A highlight clip of your best pulls
· A share link, and a CSV or JSON export of every card

Plans
The free tier covers short clips at three scans a week. Pro raises the length limit, output resolution, and how long your videos are stored.

Good to know
Prices are automated market estimates captured on the day of your scan, not appraisals, offers to buy, or financial advice. Recognizing the exact printing from video is imprecise and some variance is expected. Scanning needs an internet connection and an account; you can delete your account and your scans from within the app.

## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-09-02

Reliability

Opening PackLens without a connection now shows a "Can't reach PackLens" screen with Retry, and reconnects on its own when you're back online.
If you lose connection during an upload, the app tells you and picks up where it left off. An interrupted upload can be resumed from New scan.
Saved-video links stay fresh even after the app has been in the background for a long time.

Recording

If microphone access is off, the camera says so before you start, so you never discover a silent video after the pack is open.
Running out of storage mid-recording now explains what happened instead of showing a system error.

Review

Clearer messages when a review window has ended or a scan was already submitted from another device.

Security and privacy

Hardened link handling, and your sign-in is no longer included in device backups (after restoring a phone from backup, you'll sign in again).
Plus the latest scanning, review and pricing improvements.
