SCAN & CATALOG Add games instantly by scanning barcodes or searching by title. Your collection is organized by platform automatically, so finding any game takes seconds. Switch between grid, list, or shelf view to browse exactly how you like. KNOW WHAT YOUR COLLECTION IS WORTH GameTab tracks current market value for every game you own — loose, CIB, or sealed.

TRACK YOUR HARDWARE TOO Consoles count. Add your hardware alongside your games and track value, condition, and profit on everything — not just the cartridges. FLIP GAMES. KNOW YOUR PROFIT.

Total realized profit is always front and center. PLAY THE GAMES YOU OWN The Now Playing tab keeps your active games front and center. Start a playthrough, track how many days you've been playing, and hit Beat when you're done. Stop letting your backlog haunt you.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: GameTab at none against Block Ops II's shown. GameTab also leads on update cadence (every 2 days vs every 14 months). Block Ops II's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
