Turn your physical TCG card collection into a visual, organized, and easy-to-follow challenge. TCGChallenge Card Dex is designed for collectors who want to complete their own card challenge without getting lost among sets, variants, and endless lists. Instead of managing a collection like a complicated inventory, the app offers something clearer: each entry represents a collection slot, and each slot is completed with a real physical card chosen by you. Mark your collected cards, review which entries are still missing, check available variants, and track your progress visually with sprites, silhouettes, and a grid designed to make every step feel satisfying. ONE SLOT, ONE MAIN CARD Each entry has one main card assigned to it. If you choose another card for the same slot, the new one replaces the previous one. This keeps the challenge clean, visual, and easy to understand: it is not about accumulating quantities, but about completing your collection step by step. IDEAL FOR TCG COLLECTORS TCGChallenge Card Dex helps you: • Complete a visual collection with physical cards. • See pending and completed entries at a glance. • Check cards, variants, and images associated with each entry. • Mark a card as collected. • Change the main card assigned to a slot. • Create and review your wishlist. • Check estimated prices when available. • Choose your currency between EUR and USD. • Enable or disable Japanese cards. • Configure forms and variants according to your challenge. • Use normal or shiny sprites when available. • Switch between light, dark, or system mode. • Use the app in Spanish or English. • Export and import a local backup of your data. CARD PRICES AND DATA The app may display card information, variants, images, and estimated prices when this data is available. Values are for reference only and may change over time. TCGChallenge Card Dex is not a financial tool, does not guarantee exact prices, and does not sell cards. AN INDEPENDENT APP TCGChallenge Card Tracker is an independent app created for TCG card collectors. It is not an official app, not a game, not a marketplace, and it does not allow cards to be purchased inside the app. All third-party trademarks, names, and content belong to their respective owners. The app is provided only as an informational collection tracking tool. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
