My new go to app for Pokemon

I have been looking for an app that can primarily track my sealed & individual Pokemon cards along with my family’s portfolio AND be able to scan cards accurately and quickly. Shiny does it all so well.

I love this app for my pokemon collection

Great app for pokemon card collectors

When I first started collecting I needed to know the value of my cards and I would just have it sitting in my notes app but it was so disorganized and would take a long time just to find the value of one card. BUT THIS APP SAVES SO MUCH TIME. Now when I go to card meets to trade/buy or sell. I automatically hop on the app, my cards are saved. And it automatically shows me the CURRENT market value. Since it is constantly changing, it does all the work for me, and I can have many folders of my Pokemon cards. Highly recommend getting this app if you collect cards in general, such as one piece and Pokemon! :)
