Its listing describes a portfolio manager for trading cards: you add raw, graded and sealed products, and the app values them. It names 21 games, among them Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, One Piece, Digimon and Funko. Other features in the listing are multi-currency values, a view of the biggest gains and losses in your portfolio, and a catalog it describes as 200,000+ products inside a database of 1,000,000+. Unlimited card scanning, exclusive filters, data exports and custom backgrounds require an in-app purchase. As listed on October 1, 2026, Collectr has a 4.9 rating from 66,523 ratings. The latest update, dated September 30, 2026, mentions a Trade Analyzer that saves past trades, a Compare Grades view and scan camera fixes. ## What GunTomo is built to do GunTomo is a Gundam Card Game scanner for iPhone. The loop is short: open the camera, identify the card, add it, scan the next one. The camera reads the card code on the device, and photos are not uploaded. It tells LR, LR+, LR++, parallel and promo versions apart, so the price you see belongs to the exact variant in your hand. Prices come from public TCGplayer data, in the currency you choose. Your collection is organized by set with copies and total value, and a watchlist holds the cards you are chasing. Set pages show real sealed-product packaging, and the collection syncs through your own iCloud. GunTomo's official page has current store details. ## One game or many This is the real decision. Collectr is built for people who collect across games, and its listing frames the app as one place for all of them. GunTomo does one game only. Collectr's list of supported games does not name the Gundam Card Game. Collectr may add games over time, so check its current listing before you decide. If your Gundam cards are part of a larger collection, you will want to see how the app handles them. For a collector of only the Gundam Card Game, the useful question is variant accuracy. An LR and an LR++ of the same card are different prices, and GunTomo is built to tell them apart from the code on the card. ## Where Collectr is stronger Collectr is stronger on breadth and on portfolio tools. It covers 21 named games, accepts raw, graded and sealed items, and offers market trend views, multi-currency values and data exports. GunTomo does not describe graded cards, trade analysis or exports. It also has a large rating count: 66,523 ratings at 4.9 as listed on October 1, 2026. That is a count of ratings, not a measure of fit for Gundam cards. If you move between Pokémon, Magic and Gundam in the same week, one portfolio in one app is a real convenience, and GunTomo does not offer it. ## A quick way to test either app Before you build a collection in any app, try ten of your own cards. Pick a few common cards, a few parallels and one promo if you have it. Check that each one is identified correctly and that the price matches the variant you hold. Collectr's listing says it needs iOS 15.6 or later, and its last update was September 30, 2026. GunTomo is not released, so you cannot test it yet. When it is on the App Store, its page will list requirements and price. Also decide where your collection should live. GunTomo syncs through your own iCloud, and Collectr's listing describes a portfolio you manage inside the app. Moving a large collection between apps can take a while, so it is worth choosing before you have hundreds of cards in one place. ## How to choose Pick Collectr if you collect several games, or you hold graded and sealed products you want valued in one portfolio. Check that your Gundam cards appear correctly before you commit time to building a collection there. Pick GunTomo if the Gundam Card Game is your game. You scan a card, see the exact variant and price, add it to the collection and scan the next one, with a watchlist for the cards you want. It suits collectors, sellers and flippers who handle a lot of cards in a session. Using both is reasonable. Keep a multi-game portfolio for the rest of your collection and a Gundam-specific scanner for sorting new pulls.
