Most collection apps hand you a spreadsheet. This one hands you a real 3D binder you can flip through. Pages turn under your finger and settle with weight. Tilt your device and the foil moves the way real foil does: golds glow, rainbow rares ripple with color, illustration rares shimmer edge to edge. Pull a card off the page, spin it, look at the back. When you're done, your binders go back on a walnut collector's shelf, each as thick as its page count, beside the favorites in your Display Case. It's a complete, unofficial, fan-made tracker for Pokémon TCG collectors, built by a collector and given away free. MADE FOR IPHONE DUO Open it out and your phone becomes the binder: one page on each panel, the rings on the fold. In tabletop mode the binder sits on the top half while the controls rest on the table. Scanning at a trade table? The outer display shows the person across from you the card's name, set and price. TRACK Search or browse every set, card by card. Log each copy with its own condition and grade. Watch set completion fill in, keep a wishlist with target prices, and follow your collection's value over time. ARRANGE Tap any pocket to place, swap or remove a card, or sort a whole binder by set, name, value or rarity. Prefer it flat? Grid view has a card size slider for as many pages side by side as you like. Export any binder as a PDF or images. SCAN Point the camera at a card and it's recognized on device in about a second, price included. Clear a stack fast, or photograph a whole binder page to add up to nine cards at once. Camera frames never leave your device. PRICES Market data from TCGdex, including TCGplayer market price and Cardmarket trend, plus a link to eBay sold listings on every card. TRADE List what you have for trade, rank your wants, and build a trade card by card while the fairness meter shows where the deal stands. The trade log keeps a running profit and loss of every swap. ALERTS AND RELEASES Set a price alert on any card and get notified when it crosses your target. Optional reminders tell you when a new set is coming, and the release calendar can find card shops near you. SIRI, SHORTCUTS AND SPOTLIGHT Ask Siri what your collection is worth or how complete a set is, open a binder, scan a card or add one to your wishlist. Your cards and binders show up in Spotlight too. BACKUP Export to a readable JSON file and import it back any time, or back up to your own private iCloud and restore on a new device.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Binder Builder at none against Docs Scanner's 1. Binder Builder also leads on ads (none vs shown). Docs Scanner's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs monthly) and iOS requirement (11.0 vs 18). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
