All help topics

Open the scanner from + in Inventory or Collection, from the Wanted list, or from a deal. The modes are at the bottom: Single, Rapid, Bulk and Case check. The scanner opens on the mode you used last.

  • Single: one card at a time. Hold the card still and the picture takes itself, with a shutter sound, a quick flash and a buzz. The card’s name and price show on the sheet; tap Add, or hold up the next card.
  • Single → Live: tap the pill at the top to recognise cards with no picture at all. Point at a card, or several, and each is named as soon as the phone is sure.
  • Rapid: cards drop into the drawer at the side as they’re recognised. Review or Add when you’re done.
  • Bulk: one photo of several cards on the table. They go to Bulk scan’s review list, as before.
  • Case check: the live check against your Wanted list, when the list has cards on it.

Price check

In Single mode the sheet is a price check: today’s market price and how it has moved, right on the scanner. Nothing is added unless you tap Add. The Collection tab’s Price check chip opens the scanner there.

Tip. Turn the shutter sound, the screen flash or the vibration off in Settings → Card scanner. Each setting is remembered on this phone only.

A Snap never spends an AI check by itself: Check with AI is a button on the sheet, for when the phone isn’t sure.
