The Defenders Team Pack has been added.

I am working on adding in the functionality to filter for the newly announced rotation system. I will have this released by the time the rotation goes into effect.

Thanks!

The newest version of Sidekick has made its way onto the App Store!

The only feature added as a filter in search to filter by cards that are part of the new Pro Dice Circuit Prime rotation. You can read more about this new format at the Pro Dice Circuit website here. In the future, I will add an indication at the card and/or set level to indicate the inclusion in PDC Prime, but for now, a search will allow you to narrow your collection down to just those in the format. You may have to go to settings and force a database refresh to download the latest data that includes the flag to indicate that the card is PDC Prime or not. Please let me know if any cards are categorized improperly.

Readded the swirl image for swirled dice that somehow got deleted from the most recent versions.

The biggest reason for this update is that the service I was using to host the online portion of the database is being shut down in January, so I had to migrate the database to a new (more expensive :/) service. You must update to this version of the app by January 28th if you want a working app!

Thanks,
Aaron

The complete Deadpool set has been added to Sidekick. Enjoy!

As a side note, I accidentally deleted the image used to create the swirl effect on dice, so that will be missing until the next update.

Greetings!

Version 1.3.5 of Sidekick was just approved for the App Store. Here is an overview of the changes.

• Tapping on a card will now open a context menu that allows you to:
  • Copy that card's text.
  • Search that card on the rules forum. This is a "beta" simply because I'm not sure it is going to work for all cases, but at least it is out there.
• Added Foil types to search
  • Searching has a new option to filter the search based on "All", "Standard", or "Foil". This allows you to search for only the cards that have foil versions.
  • This also combines with the existing Collection search feature.
    • Searching for Owned with Standard or Foil selected will search for cards where you own that type. Search for "All" will search for cards where you own either.
    • Searching for Unowned with Standard or Foil will search for cards where you do not own that type. Searching for "All" will search for cards where you do not own standard, foil, or both.
• Wish List and Trade List will now show a context menu before displaying for sets with Foil cards, allowing you to specify how you want to create you Wish or Trade List.

Also, Ms. Marvel OP cards were added recently.

Thanks,
Aaron

The full Green Arrow and The Flash set is now available!

A few notes.

Foils - There are now separate counts for standard and foil versions of each card. This does mean that the totals on the front page will represent how many of each type. So in this set, it shows 116 cards and 124 foils, as the Super Rares apparently have no standard versions.

Multiple Energy characters - Now some characters have multiple energy types. I have added all the possible combinations of energy to the search screen, including triples, which don't exist yet. When searching, you will only see Crossover characters when you search for their specific double energy type, not the individual types.

The last release should have fixed the issue where it was crashing for some users when trying to view a card. If you left a negative review regarding this crash, I would greatly appreciate if you would update your review (after verifying it is fixed for you, of course). 

Thanks,
Aaron

The Dr. Strange Team Pack has been added to the database. It will be available next time you open the app.

I'm trying to nail down why the app is not showing sets and/or cards for some users as well as crashing. I haven't been able to reproduce this locally, and no crash reports have been submitted to XCode so it is proving to be difficult to track down. If any users are experiencing any problems such as these, please contact me with a bug report so I can fix this as soon as possible.

In the meantime, a fresh install of the app will almost always fix any issues with the database.

Thanks,

Greetings,

I have just submitted a new update to the App Store!

Here are some highlights.
- Added compatibility for characters with multiple energy types.
- Added compatibility for sets with foil cards.
- Added compatibility for different sets types, such as team packs.
- Made the app universal, so you can download it on your iPad now. It doesn't look fantastic there, but at least it is available.
- Minor text fixes.

Yes, you read that right. I turned on iPad compatibility. There may be some kinks to work out with syncing between two devices, and the layout isn't great stretched the way it is, but I wanted to get this out on iPads so people can start using it. Please let me know immediately if you run into any issues with this.

WizKids decided to make my life difficult by adding characters with multiple energy types and foils for every card in a set, so I had to update the database to handle it. This is the first time I've had to update the local database like this, so bear with me if there are any bugs. I added all of the possible combinations of energy types to the Search screen (including triples, just in case). Crossover characters will only appear when you select their specific energy type. They will not appear when searching for just one of the two types.

A note on foils. I decided for sets that contain foil versions of most or all of their cards, I would not create the foil cards as separate entries in the database. Instead, each of those cards will only appear once, but it will have two sets of buttons to set how many you have of the standard and the foil versions. For the existing 4 foil cards that were given out at the WKO, I kept those as separate promo entries. Hopefully this doesn't cause too much confusion. When searching for cards in your collection, it will now check to see if you own any standard or foil cards. This goes the same for the wish list and trade list features.

Please let me know if you have any feedback by contacting me using this sites contact form.

Thanks so much for your support,
Aaron Schuetter

Golden Age of Superman cards have been added to DC Promos. Enjoy!

I am currently working on an update to better handle the upcoming characters with multiple energy types that will be coming with the Green Arrow/The Flash set this September. Hopefully I will get that finished soon so I can start adding spoilers from that set, but GenCon might slow me down a little bit.

Added Justice Like Lightning OP cards to Marvel Promos.

​That is all.

A Dungeons and Dragons Rainbow Draft Weekend is coming this Fall. The participation prize is Strahd and has already been spoiled, and is available in Sidekick.

I am currently working on how I'm going to handle the characters in the upcoming set that have multiple energy types, as well as sets without starters and starters without sets. I'm hoping I can release an update that contains that functionality in the coming weeks so everyone has the update prior to the set's release. If anyone has any suggestions on how they would like to see multiple energy types represented, please feel free to contact me via the support page. Feel free to send me any other feedback regarding the app there as well.

Thanks,
​Aaron
