### 4/5 — Could’ve been 5 stars.

*2026-08-12, version 1.0.20*

Love this app, incredibly detailed and informative, helpful and convenient despite the price. The only way this could have been a 5 star review was if there was an option to wishlist cards not yet owned. I’m sure i’m not the first person to think this obvious feature idea.

### 1/5 — Small space

*2026-07-25*

Small space for camera to scan the card

### 3/5 — Make it available for old IOS

*2026-05-22, version 1.0.15*

Love the app but I now can’t update it because it’s for iOS 18 or later - can you not make it available on all iOS versions?

### 1/5 — App not working

*2026-05-02, version 1.0.14*

### 1/5 — Didn’t scan my cards

*2026-04-29, version 1.0.14*

Whole point of the app is to scan pokemon cards. No matter what I did it couldn’t scan my card. Was following all the instructions to a T

### 2/5 — Whilst accurate

*2026-04-23, version 1.0.14*

No option to scan foreign cards nor ability to add cards that are graded

### 1/5 — Problem seeing subscription

*2026-04-18, version 1.0.14*

I authorised payment for a 3 day free trial but cannot see the subscription to cancel before money is taken as I no longer want to use the app. I contacted developer by email but have had no response.

### 4/5 — Find prices

*2026-03-29, version 1.0.13*

Just scan and check the prices very recommended

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-03-04, version 1.0.11*

### 1.0.15 — 2026-05-20

Thanks for being part of TCGdex.                               
                                                                 
This update is all about scanning. The new scanner reads cards
faster and more reliably — even on holographic prints — and    
stacks them into a burst strip so you can capture a whole stack
in one motion and review everything before saving to your
collection.                                                    
                                                            
What's new                                                     
  • Redesigned scanner with burst-mode capture — scan multiple
  cards in a row, then save the entire stack from one screen.
  • Smarter card recognition for full-art, holo, and reverse-foil
   prints.                                    
  • Refined ROI overlay with smoother tracking that won't fight  
  your hand.                                  
  • Free scans bumped from 3 to 5 per day.                       
  • Collection detail polish — variant chip with quick-edit, 24h
  change card, and clearer card numbers.                         
  • Insights, paywall, and review prompts tightened up      
  throughout.
