Choosing Your Settings

Download the TCGplayer App for Android and iOS

It’s easy to adjust your settings in the TCGplayer app.

Locating the app’s settings

First, tap the account button in the bottom navigation bar.

From there, tap settings.

Scanning settings

The TCGplayer app allows you to customize the scanner’s behavior, and allow or disallow app sounds. To get started, navigate to Account > Settings, and view the “Scanning” section.

Fine-tuning the scanner

To adjust how sensitive the scanner is and how often you are asked to manually verify scans, navigate to Account > Settings > Scanner Verification Level.

Within the Scanner Verification Level page, you have two sections, Sensitivity and Prompting:

Sensitivity

Sensitivity settings determine the minimum level of confidence the scanner needs before presenting a scan result.

The “loose” setting requires the lowest confidence to present a result, while “strict” requires the highest confidence.

Experiment with these settings to find what works best for you.

Prompting

Prompting settings determine how often you are asked to manually verify scans.

The “often” setting will prompt you to manually verify scans frequently, while “never” turns this functionality off entirely.

Turning app sounds on or off

To turn app sounds on or off, navigate to Account > Settings. From here you will see a toggle to turn sounds on or off.

Share settings

The TCGplayer app allows you to specify your default share format as either plaintext or CSV, and customize which pieces of data are shared in either format. To get started, navigate to Account > Settings, and view the “Sharing” section.

Defining your default share format

To pick which format you’d like to share lists and items in, select “Default share format” from within the “Sharing” section.

Defining which data is shared when sharing as plaintext

To pick which data you’d like to share when using plaintext, select “Plaintext Output Settings” from within the “Sharing” section.

Defining which data is shared when sharing as CSV

To pick which data you’d like to share when using plaintext, select “CSV Output Settings” from within the “Sharing” section.
