What is the best MTG collection app?

Cascade MTG LLC makes Cascade, one of the eight apps on this page. We wrote this comparison. Cascade shows TCGplayer prices and earns a commission when you buy cards on TCGplayer through its buy buttons. Every fact about another app comes from that app’s own website or store page, linked in the table, as of November 7, 2026. No other company paid for, reviewed or endorsed this page.

Which app should I use to track my collection and its value?

There is no single best app. It depends on how you use it. Cascade (our app) and Delver keep one collection on the web and your phone, with free sync. So does Deckbox on Android; its iPhone app is in beta. Cascade has apps for iPhone, iPad, Android and Windows, and a free trade tool. Cascade and Delver say they have no ads. ManaBox searches offline, has prices from six stores and 14 languages, but sync needs PRO. Moxfield and Archidekt are web deck builders that track collections. Dragon Shield has a trade tool and friends’ collections. TCGplayer’s app scans cards and shows TCGplayer prices.
