Pros & Cons

  • All-in-one MTG tool: scan, price tracking, collection, and deck building in one app
  • Real-time market data from major MTG marketplaces (TCGPlayer and CardMarket)
  • Export-ready collections and decks (CSV and text) for trades and backups
  • Weekly updates and price trend insights to stay ahead of the market
  • Some competitors offer broader market trackers or cross-TCG features not present here
  • Requires camera/storage permissions for scanning and data export; privacy-conscious users may want to review permissions
  • Live cross-market or advanced live search features found in other apps may be more comprehensive elsewhere

Comments on MTG Scanner - Dragon Shield for Android

★★★★★ Ian MITCH · May 21, 2026
Best scanning APP for MTG hands down! Also made by the best company to get any play sleeves for your cards through too! A++++
★★★★★ Patrick McQuown · Mar 14, 2026
Great card scanner. Perfect for organizing your collection. Get it
★★★★★ John Crawford · Jun 3, 2026
App works great, card information is accurate. My only problem is the cards are a little hard to scan if they're sleeved or in a binder but IDK what if anything they can do about that.
★★★★★ Ryan Guy · Jul 28, 2026
Does exactly what I need. Scanner works better than any other scanner I have used. Unfortunately it's only for magic and not other TCGs. I know they have created a new app that encompasses many more TCGs. But it has horrible reviews, so I'll stick with this app for now.
★☆☆☆☆ Retron Gaming · Dec 27, 2025
As of 12/27/25 the app is almost completely useless for scanning. Not sure what's up with it, but since they started pushing hard for the paid version, I simply cannot get a single card to scan in without using their "heres 5 free scans a month!" garbage. Will be moving over to ManaBox or another app that actually works.
★★☆☆☆ Christopher Hogan · Mar 12, 2026
App badgers you with ads constantly hoping to get you to pay a subscription and the card scanner is awful at reading full arts
★★☆☆☆ Diego Luna · May 14, 2026
Changing my review again because the long-ago changes made to the scanner in order to highlight "Pro" scanning has indisputably come at the cost of the regular scanning function. Almost all non-standard border & foiled cards fail to be recognized quickly and this is unacceptable as a collector of many Secret Lair cards. Additionally, the scanner pops a Premium ad after MY VERY FIRST SCAN EACH TIME I OPEN THE APP! I've left it at two star because I'm generous & hopeful these will be addressed.
