TCG Card Scanner - Kardo

I can’t believe I paid for this based on the high reviews. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. First, the edge detection on the camera might as well not exist. I expect some fine tuning, but this thing constantly guesses the edges are inches from there they actually are - on a white paper background. Second, the accuracy is an absolute joke. Don’t expect it to understand which parallel your card is, which if we’re being honest is 90% of why you would get the app. It consistently tells you base cards are some super-rare lottery ticket, and actual rare cards are $1.50 bases. It’s terrible. And third: there is no way (that I have found) to tell the app ‘you are WAY off’. You just either accept it or delete it. Just remember that if you bought the full year (like my smart self), go into your subscriptions and delete it now before you’re disappointed again 12-months from now.

It’s great to have a card identifier for collectors- but it doesn’t always get the card right. I have scanned fronts and backs and gotten different versions and prices. The prices seem to be overly high based on researching the card directly on the internet. If a company can harness true values - and be consistent with pulling the correct card scanned- sky is the limit. Great format, easy to use, and love the idea. Just not sure is pricing is accurate enough. Example- TCG player online has different prices for the card than what scanned on the app. How do you tell who is correct?

I been collecting for years and have a lot of cards to go through, been looking through big names just to get a rough estimate on values. I like the fact i can scan and search for more than one card at a time. The free version states that your scans are limited and if you want unlimited buy pro but thats a deception because once on the pro the scan are also limited which should be stated. Once the limit is reached wont even let you can try and see what you got they ask for more money for that they get 3 stars other apps offer same not multiple searches at once but if it states unlimited they mean it not like here. Thats the big con with this app
