Card Manager: Digital Wallet

I've really enjoyed using this app. It makes it so much easier to keep all my gift cards, loyalty cards, membership cards, and tickets in one place instead of carrying them around. I also like that I can add cards to Apple Wallet and even keep track of my gift card balances. The app is simple to use, organized, and has helped me keep everything I need right on my phone. Definitely a great app if you want a more convenient way to manage your cards.

You really started with a good app, but if you are going to maintain it, you need a disciplined, governed CI/CD pipeline. You cannot run a software application that starts making money and then start running off on vacation, expecting to put in a few hours here and there to keep the app sustainable, especially when you start making changes without the proper discipline and process around it. Now I cannot even enter a PIN number without that field, erasing it immediately when I try to add a new card. Before that, it started erasing my cards and replacing them with cards with random numbers and letters. Before that, the sorting got messed up and My cards became extremely slow to load as compared to before especially if I have a large number.

I’ve had this app as my sole gift card manager since January 2022., but recent changes leave me looking for an alternative. Sometime recently, they changed the app from being completely free to using a subscription model. My main gripe: they put the image attachments to the gift cards behind the paywall. Image attachments were my main usage for this app (I get my gift cards and upload screenshots of the details for each card so I dont have to keep the physical ones as proof if there are issues with the barcodes). Now I can’t do that anymore without paying for this feature. Seriously, everything nowadays has a subscription. This app used to be perfect for me, now ruined by a paywall… I would not recommend this app to anyone - find something free. Conveniently managing and storing gift cards shouldn’t cost money, and don’t take existing features of a free app and start charging money for those same un-improved features.
