RelicForge is an unofficial, fan-made companion app for ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN. Catalog your relics and design per-character builds — all from your phone. ■ Features [Camera scan with auto OCR] Hold your camera over an in-game relic detail and the app uses Apple Vision OCR to recognize effect text. Title parsing automatically determines color, size, and type (normal/deep), and unique relics are matched against the master list. Scan many relics in a row, review the candidate list, and save them all at once. [Manual entry too] For when you can't use the camera, just pick the color, size, and type, then choose each slot's effect from the master list. The name is auto-derived from the composition. [Powerful filtering] Filter your collection by favorites, color, size, type, and effects. Effects are grouped into "General / Character-specific / Weapon-specific / Demerit" so you can drill down to what you need quickly. [Build planner] Pick a character, select a vessel, and equip relics into the 3 normal + 3 deep slots. Slot color and type constraints follow the in-game rules; non-equippable relics are shown grayed out. Within a build the filter persists across slots, so you can narrow down to your target relics and assign them in sequence. [Protection for favorites and in-use relics] Favorited relics and relics currently equipped in any build cannot be accidentally deleted. The collection list shows badges for equipped and favorited items at a glance. [Share builds via URL] Share your relic and build data with a single URL. The recipient can freely experiment with builds in their own browser — perfect for asking friends for build advice. ■ Notes - This app is not affiliated with FromSoftware Inc. or Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. - OCR accuracy depends on lighting and camera distance. - Scanned photos are not stored on your device.

HPCG memo's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs weekly) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
