## Review summary

The app provides solid card organization and a functional scanning feature with quality per-card values, but is hampered by scanner reliability issues, costly storage upgrades, a cumbersome deck-building workflow, occasional crashes, and UX/export gaps. It remains strong when functioning, but core reliability and pricing issues limit its usefulness.

### Pros

- Easy-to-use interface with strong organization and search
- Effective scanning feature (foil/nonfoil, set view)
- Accurate per-card value ratings
- Set-based browsing to view all cards in a set
- Convenient digital binder for on-the-go reference

### Cons

- Scanner often fails to identify cards, requiring resets or manual work; unreliable after updates
- Storage pricing is expensive and confusing; extra slots require purchasing
- Deck-building workflow is tedious: no bulk add; difficult to move scanned cards into decks
- App can crash or camera goes black during use
- Filtering/search UI is clunky and some filters don’t work; exporting data to CSV is limited
