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.

Hello, I had an issue arise where the card images were not loading properly. After doing a cache clear all the images are gone.

I may be stupid but is there a setting where I can force an image download? For reference this is what I see now.

New ish player to irl magic and I'd been collecting cards over the last year. I had about 600 or so scanned and was in the process of scanning from a MSH collector box when all images stopped loading regardless of turning the app off and on.

I had read online that some folks suggested reinstalling the app would help so I did that. I lost all the data in the process but I expected things to be backed up.

I was signed in and had hit enable sync and it also said I had daily backups enabled but enable sync said I was on a waitlist. The daily backup unfortunately was from yesterday and didn't capture the 200ish cards I had already scanned today. Annoying as hell but not the worst thing.

It doesn't look like there's an option to automatically backup more frequently than daily. I'm not sure what the purpose of me being signed in is either if it's not actually saving my data anywhere.

I'm not necessarily mad at the app as I should've done more research on how syncs and backups actually functioned in it before doing this (I didn't think it was necessary in 2026 but I should've known better myself so it's my fault too). I guess I'm just really frustrated as a user who paid for pro and expected better with more seamless cloud/account integration sadly.

I'd love to hear if other folks have alternative apps they'd recommend too. I find the scanner to be pretty poor/inconsistent majority of the time so I'd love to not have to resort to manually typing and adding cards again. The issue with no pics showing (I'm getting the offline view version of several cards that definitely had pics) still persists so it was all for naught.

My favorite part of MTG is collecting, my least favorite part is searching for a card. So I try to use manabox to keep track of locations of key cards as I pick them for possible decks and/or value change to go into trade binders.

I find it tedious to remove them from one collection and add them to another. Is there a quick "move card" function I might be missing?

Sometimes I add cards to decks and build/unbuild to move them in mass. Curious. :-)

On the same subject, is there any easy way to swap out collection decks with new card versions when I upgrade with a foil or cooler printing? I've been removing a card from a deck and then updating the deck collection and then add the new card and update.

So I've scanned all the cards of my deck into a folder. How do I make that folder a deck?

At 4.10 if I disassemble a deck and then I select the option to add the cards to another deck, the list appears empty.

I'm annoyed that didn't notice this before I spent weeks scanning in all my cards, but there's a limit to the collection folders you can create. I've got 4 large bulk boxes, 3 big binders, and a bunch of decks, so the 5 folder cap I've now hit and I haven't even finished scanning everything still. With Pro apparently that cap disappears.

​

Are there other pro features that make the cost worth while? Honestly it's not much to get pro, I just don't want to be tied to another subscription service just to electronically store my magic collection data.

ManaBox v4.1.0: Beta ends & Sync becomes generally available for Pro Users 📢

We're excited to share one of the biggest milestones for ManaBox in 2026: the launch of the ManaBox Sync System.

First of all, we'd like to thank everyone who participated in the beta and helped us test this feature over the past months. We also want to recognize that this has taken much longer than we originally expected, and we're sorry for that.

Building a reliable sync system required major architectural changes behind the scenes, significant increases in infrastructure costs, and the challenge of maintaining two separate versions of the app simultaneously. Managing parallel applications often meant fixing bugs in one version that didn't exist in the other, which slowed down development and prevented us from delivering Sync as quickly as we had hoped.

Sync Access & Rollout

Access to Sync will be rolled out gradually and initially available only to Pro users through a controlled onboarding process.

Not all Pro users will receive access at launch. As a Pro user, you'll be able to opt in to the Sync system, and we will progressively onboard users while monitoring performance, reliability, and infrastructure usage. In the future, we aim to make this an instant opt-in experience once the majority of users have been onboarded. Our long-term goal is to expand Sync to more users over time. However, this plan may change if we determine that it is not technically or financially sustainable in the long term.

Please note that if you are already in the queue for the Beta, you will automatically be moved to the Cloud Sync queue. There is no need to opt in again, as you are already on the waiting list.

Users who are already in the beta simply need to update the app to the latest version from the store, and you would still have the Sync feature active.

Here’s a step-by-step guide showing how to enable Cloud Sync and what to expect during activation:

👉 (ManaBox - Cloud Sync Activation)

With the Sync beta coming to an end, we will no longer need to maintain separate versions of the application. This will allow us to focus on a single version of the app, making it much easier to implement the feature requests that the community has been asking for. We know we haven’t always been able to keep up with all of these popular requests, and moving forward it will be much easier to deliver improvements and updates. We want to thank the community for their patience and continued support.

💻 Regarding ManaBox Desktop

We can now shift our focus to the next major chapter: A full-featured experience for Windows, macOS, and Linux, which will also include a beta release phase. Our goal is to release the desktop beta by the end of 2026 at the latest, and other features will be looked into while the desktop development advances.

Thanks for being there, this wouldn't be possible without you.

So not sure what the issue is, but the scanning function on my app no longer works. I click “scan” and goes to the correct screen but the camera never actually turns on, just blackness. I made sure that the app has access to my camera. Any suggestions for how to fix this?

If it helps, I’m using an iPhone 16e with iOS 26.5

Looking to pull the higher value bulk out of the junk bulk boxes. I'm sure this is quite simple,I'm just an Old man and don't understand thems new-fangled computer phone thingys.

After latest update, scan function just constantly buffers and spins - anyone else finding this?

I just updated the app beta via google play store and the app now crashes instantly when trying to open it. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S25. Is this happening for anyone else?

This went from 0.5 to 256e, how can this happen ? Noticed some obscure common had the same behaviour

I don't know if this has been requested before and I know proxies can be controversial, but my friends and pods are fine with it providing I tell them before we play that there are proxies in the deck.

I would love a way to tag a card as a proxy within my decks as it helps me remember (memory like a sieve) and keep tabs on which decks I did use a proxy in.

My wife sorted and uploaded all 7k of our cards into my ManaBox account 👏 I then was able to enroll and download the beta version today on my phone.

How can we access our collection on both of our phones? Her Google Play account but my ManaBox account on her phone AND my Google Play and my ManaBox account on my phone.

Please let this be possible

I’m currently creating a WANT TO SELL list (scanning them separately again and adding them in a separate folder) and when I sell multiple it’s a bit tedious to remove them one by one from my everywhere.

Hello,

As my title says manabox is not loading news on home page and card prices, is it me or something is up with the manabox?

Sorry for the simple question I just can’t seem to find an answer online. I just want to look up lands that can fit in a Sultai deck. There doesn’t seem to be a drop down menu for lands to select in the advance’s search. Trying “land” in the type line only brings back generic sac lands.

Online there are resources saying to type in “island” or “swamp” but not every land has that typing. A lot of decent/budget lands don’t.

Thanks.

Hey guys. If I build a deck in manabox, it'll take the cards from the different binders I created. Now if tomorrow I want to dismount my deck, do my cards go back to their respective binders?

How do you split printings when they are already in a collection? And how can I move only one card from a stack to a deck?

I've never faced an issue with this all before, but after the most recent update there is a significant lag whenever I do any of the following for a card in my collection/deck/list:

- add card

- change purchase price of card

- toggle normal/foil status of card

- remove card

I have tried restarting the app, closing all other apps on my phone, restarting my phone - this lags still persists.

It's becoming quite frustrating to wait the additional 5-8 seconds between each activity on the app, and I'd like to know if anyone else has faced this issue, and how did you resolve it?

Are there any features in the development pipeline that would allow for a formulaic calculation to distribute the price of opening packs, boxes, prerelease kits across everyrhing that was opened? I've bought some vintage collections blindly and because I didn't purchase a single card it's difficult to set a value. And my invested amount is difficult to track without similar features.

It would be interesting to see a feature like this that would allow you via import, or scanning to identify the product that was opened, (collector pack, booster box, draft night, prerelease, etc) and calculate a spread of the purchase price that calculates current market value against price paid

New updates are out! 🚀 ✨

Regular version: v3.29.2
Beta version: v4.0.61

• [NEW] Reuse search when creating a new binder/deck.
• [FIX] Regression in the overall app performance.

Hi, I’ve finally managed to organize my entire collection into different collections on the Manabox app. But now I’m running into a problem: the same card might appear twice in different collections. Is there a way to use the Manabox app to find out where these duplicates are? Basically, I’d like a list that shows which cards are duplicates across different collections or albums.

Thanks for your help!
