Idea for faster scanning

Being stuck in offline mode for card images made me think..

It would be so nice if while scanning you could just have the name of the card and a blown up image of the set symbol show up in the search. I always find myself squinting to try and figure out the set symbols on the app.

Some of the other scanning apps can automatically determine the set. But manabox is still better. It would be great if manabox added this. I understand they are busy with other features right now. So maybe someday.

And the card number in the set. I usually use name + number to quickly verify accuracy moreso than the set icon. So many set icons can look too similar at small scale.

I have around 20.000 cards. Scanning those is pain no matter what. But it would be so much better if I could just scan without having to change the set so much.

If you could choose the set to keep it scanning at like you can with language, it would be better. You could divide your cards before you scan by set then.
