Sorted: TCG Collection Manager

Imported account from dragon shield. The ui is an improvement but there are bugs and some features function worse than the old app. The scanner seems to work fine and having more TCG options in a single app is nice. My inventory shows duplicate cards when I scroll down the list and often fails to load at all or refreshes after I scroll down a bit. It seems like this happens when it’s trying to load the advertisements that are now shown every few rows. There are way more ads on this new application than the old one (why are there even ads in my inventory folder at all?). Some cards I searched for were not populating but this issue was present in both this app and dragon shield. For example I could not locate some of the new first partner collection cards. They have been out for a few weeks but maybe they are too new? Also you now cannot even view your inventory without an internet connection. I double checked and confirmed the old dragon shield app loaded my inventory while my phone was in airplane mode but the new app doesn’t have this feature and requires internet. I have been to several shows with bad/slow internet and it would be very convenient to still be able to look at my cards. I would also like it if the language and condition properly reflected in the price charting for each card. Maybe that can be added in a future update. I’ll check back to see how this app improves in the future and update my review as needed, but this seems like a step backwards from the old Dragon Shield app.

When I opened my dragon shield “poke TCG” app, it said they were moving to sorted. So I downloaded this app and signed in. My “collection” got imported but my 49 decklists did not. I begrudgingly began to “import” the decks one-by-one, I got this message during the first import: “invalid columns: please check if you are using the correct .csv structure for your import source and that are using ‘,’ as a delimiter” I simply don’t understand. On poke TCG, I downloaded the dragon shield file, then on sorted, I selected “dragon shield format”, and selected the downloaded file. How could that possibly not just work? Why didn’t my decks get automatically when I signed in? Will poke TCG stay up or will I actually have to get used to sorted before my old decklists are gone forever? What did I do wrong with the deck import?

I loved dragon shield and got into the pattern of using it. Of course an entirely new app has to be pushed along. While there’s a lot I like about it, something as simple as a plus button to add to collection after scan makes dragon shield’s version better instantly. Having to reach up to the top of the screen is silly and I’m convinced the developers haven’t tried scanning 300 cards in a sitting to add to a bulk folder, which, the automatic dump to “All cards” versus what DS would do with allowing you to select your folder is another flaw. Take me to my folders immediately instead of making me tap 5 more times for a bulk card worth 5 cents I’m trying to catalog. 😑
