Why PokéCollector exists
A collector app with the boring parts handled.
PokéCollector is free and made for people who want a useful, private overview of their Pokémon TCG collection without maintaining spreadsheets or giving every detail to a hosted service.
Set progress
Browse sets, open checklists, and see what is missing. Short-code search like PFL 001 helps jump directly to specific cards.
Value tracking
Use Cardmarket EUR and TCGPlayer USD data from TCGdex, plus price history, portfolio snapshots, duplicates, and top movers.
Everything in one place
Built for real collections, not just a spreadsheet.
Manage duplicates, conditions, variants, sealed products, binders, user profiles, alerts, and value snapshots without giving your collection data to yet another hosted service.

First showcase
3D-printed dividers with NFC shortcuts
Community member f0rr3stfunk built plastic dividers for a card box and writes PokéCollector set links onto NFC tags. Tapping a phone on a divider can jump straight to the matching set overview in the app.
