“I thought my old dual land was a cheap reprint. Lotus Scan caught the edition difference — that's $180 I would have missed. No other app got it right.”

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about scanning MTG cards with Lotus Scan.

Is Lotus Scan free to download?
Yes. Lotus Scan is free to download on the App Store. You can scan cards, check real-time prices, and manage your collection without a subscription.
Do I need a white background to scan MTG cards?
No — unlike ManaBox and other popular scanners, Lotus Scan works on any surface. Scan cards on your desk, a dark table, or directly from your hand. No setup, no background sheet required.
How accurate is Lotus Scan at identifying cards?
Lotus Scan uses AI-powered recognition to identify cards by name, set, and edition — including distinguishing original printings from modern reprints. This matters because the same card name can be worth $0.10 as a recent reprint or $180 as an original printing.
Can I export my MTG collection from Lotus Scan?
Yes. Lotus Scan exports your collection as a CSV compatible with Moxfield, Archidekt, and other major platforms. You can also view your total collection value with live market prices from TCGPlayer and Card Kingdom.
How many cards can I scan with Lotus Scan?
There is no hard limit. Lotus Scan is built to handle large collections and performs consistently on collections of 10,000+ cards. It does not slow down or degrade accuracy during long scanning sessions the way some competing apps do.
How does Lotus Scan compare to ManaBox or Dragon Shield?
The key differences are background requirements and edition accuracy. Lotus Scan needs no white background, while ManaBox requires one for reliable results. Dragon Shield requires an internet connection and struggles to identify cards across different set printings. Lotus Scan correctly identifies which printing of a card you have — critical for accurate valuations.
Which iPhone models does Lotus Scan support?
Lotus Scan runs on iPhone with iOS 16 or later. It performs best on iPhone 12 and newer models with the improved camera system, but works on all supported iOS devices.
