Native App vs Web App

Understand the differences between the native mobile app and the web/PWA version.

What Both Versions Offer

Both the native app and the web app give you full access to:

  • Collection management (add, edit, organize cards)
  • Deck builder with format validation
  • Real-time price tracking from multiple providers
  • Wishlist management
  • Card search and encyclopedia

Native App Exclusive Features

The native app provides additional capabilities that the web version cannot:

| Feature | Web / PWA | Native App |

|---------|-----------|------------|

| Full offline card database (100K+ cards) | No | Yes |

| Local camera scanner (no server needed) | No | Yes |

| Push notifications for price alerts | No | Yes |

| Background sync | No | Yes |

Which Should I Use?

The web app is perfect for getting started β€” it works in any browser with no installation. The native app is the complete toolkit for serious collectors who want offline access, faster scanning, and push notifications.

You can use both! Your data syncs seamlessly between them.
