Scan your cards

1. In the iPhone app, in Inventory, tap + and then Scan a card. Rapid scan is on.
2. Hold a card up to the camera. Once the phone is sure which card it is, its picture drops into the drawer at the side. Then the next one.
3. A faded picture means the phone isn’t sure yet: hold the card closer and still, or take a picture of it.
4. Done? Tap Add to collection to add everything, or Review to check the list first and take out any you don’t want.

Nothing is added until you say so. A card on your Wanted list gets a gold box and a buzz.

Prefer one card at a time? Tap Rapid at the top to turn it off; the scanner remembers that. Turn it back on there, or in Settings → Card scanner.

On Collector, Rapid scan adds up to 30 cards a month. Scanning one card at a time has no limit.

1. One card at a time (Rapid scan off): fit the card in the box, about 6 inches (16 cm) away, and take the picture.
2. Check it’s your card. Tap NM ▾ to change the condition.
3. Tap the printing you have to add it. Then Scan next, or close the scanner.
