Release notes

Coming soon

Lists tags
We realized that users might end-up with many lists on the home page, many it difficult to navigate. We are implementing a feature to add tags to a last, and be able to filter by those tags. Doing so will allow us to reduce the number of lists displayed and will make it easier to manage your collection.

August 5th 2024

Cards price
Probably one of the most unnoticeable update ever. We have updated the one the prices are retrieved and now way more cards have a market price. If you own a card and the price is still missing, just let us know and we will make sure it will be updated daily automatically.

Cards Finish
The finish of the cards you are adding (Foil, Etched, etc.) is now enforced and verified against the available finishes for that card. If you are trying to enter a card as a foil and there is only etched versions of that card, the finish will automatically be converted into etched. Else, the card entry will be rejected.
Keep Alive
The keep alive has been improved to keep your session opened for 24h after your last action and no more 24h after your last login.
Delete selection
In the manage content page, in addition to the move and the copy operations, it is now possible to delete the selected cards from the current list.
Currencies
The prices for the list of cards you are looking for are now all displayed in USD, applying currency rate conversion when required. It allows you to do a fair comparison between USD prices and other countries like Canada.
