## Description

This is the Legacy version of Helvault, a MTG collection manager for players and collectors who want to spend less time typing card names. It includes an exclusive AI-powered card scanner that can identify cards from Magic: The Gathering history, unlimited cards in your collection, detailed stats about your collection, card details including prices, CSV export, and multi-binder organization. No ads, forever.

This legacy version is obsolete and has been replaced by the latest Helvault - MTG Card Scanner app available on the App Store. The scanner feature is limited to 50 cards in this legacy release; after that, an in-app purchase is required to continue scanning. The rest of the app remains fully functional and the scanner requires an active internet connection.

## Review summary

Users praise Helvault for its fast, accurate scanner and strong, one-time-purchase value with robust organization and export features. However, multiple reviews cite crashes after updates, new-version purchase requirements, and poor set/edition detection and sorting. Usability gaps like no bulk select-all for moves/deletes further detract. Improvements in stability, cross-app licensing handling, more reliable edition detection, better sorting, and bulk operations would align with the app’s strong cataloging capabilities.

### Pros

- Fast, accurate card scanner that works even with glare.
- One-time price / lifetime license; no subscription.
- Powerful organization features (binders, decks, notes) and strong search.
- Advanced CSV export and flexible data control (no cloud account required).

### Cons

- Crashes and instability after updates; app often freezes on launch.
- New app versions require new purchases; purchases aren't carried over across apps.
- Set/edition detection is frequently incorrect; manual corrections are often needed.
- Sorting and filter options are inconsistent (e.g., rarity sort not in standard order).
- Lack of bulk actions (no select-all) makes moving or deleting cards tedious.
