Which Card Value app is this?
Search the App Store or Google Play for "card value" and you will find many apps with similar names from different developers. The one on this page is Card Value Scanner for Pokemon, sold by App All Day Pty Ltd. Its listing describes it as an unofficial app. We did not find a Google Play version from App All Day as of October 2026, and its developer website does not list app details.
Short answer
Pick Card Value if you want a simple, lightweight app to look up Pokémon card prices across sets and track a watchlist of cards you want. Its App Store privacy label says the developer does not collect any data from the app. Pick Binder AI if you want to estimate what your card might grade, see eBay sold prices and a graded value table, use Android or the web, or track games and sports beyond Pokémon.

How each app works
Card Value is a price guide in app form. Its listing describes searching card collections from the first sets to recent ones, viewing each card's rarity and market value, following price changes, and adding cards you want to a watchlist. The app is 8.5 MB, which is small for a card app.
Binder AI starts from a photo of the front and a photo of the back. You choose the PSA, BGS or TAG scale and get an overall estimate with centering, corners, edges and surface subgrades and written condition notes. It identifies the card and shows eBay sold prices, price history and a graded value table. For a hand check of centering, use the manual tool in the app or the free card centering calculator.

- Small download. At 8.5 MB it takes little space on your phone.
- Apple devices. It is listed for iPhone, iPad, Apple silicon Macs and Apple Vision.
Where Binder AI is stronger
- Grade estimates. Binder AI estimates a PSA, BGS or TAG grade with subgrades. Card Value's listing does not mention grading.
- Sold prices and graded values. eBay sold prices and a graded value table help you decide whether grading is worth the fee. Pair them with the is my card worth grading calculator.
- Collection binders. Binder AI sorts cards into binders by game or sport that you can share, beyond a watchlist.
- More platforms and games. Binder AI runs on Android and the web and covers other TCGs and sports cards.
- Recent updates. Card Value's last App Store update was in June 2024.

Try both
The apps do different jobs, so test each on what it is for.
- Search Card Value for five cards from the newest set you own. If they appear with prices, its database covers what you collect.
- Pick three to five raw cards you are thinking of grading and photograph them front and back on a dark flat surface with soft light and no glare.
- Run them through Binder AI on the PSA or BGS scale and note the subgrades and the graded value table.
- Decide whether you need grading help at all. If you only want prices, a simple price app may be enough.
Binder AI's plans are on the pricing page.
