## Review summary

Users praise Rare Candy for fast, free scanning, easy organization by set, and built-in market data that helps track card value. The app is often described as intuitive and valuable for collectors. However, onboarding is hindered by username issues, and stability problems—crashes, freezes, and errors—along with occasional data loss after updates—are common complaints. The core scanning and value-tracking features are strong, but onboarding clarity and reliability need improvement.

### Pros

- Fast, unlimited, and free card scanning.
- No paywall with built-in market data for tracking card values.
- Organizes cards by set and offers intuitive collection management.
- User-friendly and intuitive interface; frequently described as top-tier for collectors.
- Strong price/market data support and easy scanning for English and Japanese cards.

### Cons

- Onboarding is blocked by username creation issues (invalid usernames, continue button failures).
- Frequent crashes, freezes, and error messages (e.g., error 503) after updates or during use.
- Scans or cards can disappear or fail to save to the collection after leaving the app or updating.
- Updates have introduced regressions and reduced functionality in some areas.
