## Review summary

Users largely appreciate fast scanning and good inventory/price-tracking features, but recurring problems undermine them: inconsistent scan reliability, no deck-building integration, unstable UI updates, billing issues with premium access, and data-management flaws across devices and updates.

### Pros

- Fast and generally accurate card scanning that helps identify cards
- Effective tools for inventory management and price tracking, with CSV export options
- Price data and updates help users stay informed about card values
- Some users value the Premium/Pro features for faster scanning and bulk scan functionality

### Cons

- Inconsistent scanning reliability (reads wrong cards, stalls, especially with sleeves, foil, or borderless cards)
- Lack of integrated deck-building from inventory; must rescan or manually synchronize between inventory and decks
- Frequent UI updates and bugs that degrade usability (layout changes, crashes, broken views)
- Billing and premium issues (trial charges, premium features not consistently available)
- Data management problems (data loss after app updates, cross-device desync, lag/absence of new card data)
