Basics

What is Lorecodex?

A fast, private iOS app for tracking your Disney Lorcana TCG collection. It's designed as a companion to inventory sites like Dreamborn and Lorcana.gg — add cards quickly here, export cleanly to there.

Does it cost anything?

No. Lorecodex is free. No in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no ads. Disney Lorcana's community code policy forbids charging for this kind of app, and that suits me fine.

Do I need an account?

No account, no sign-in. If you enable iCloud sync, that happens through your existing Apple ID — Lorecodex never sees it.

What devices does it run on?

iPhone and iPad running iOS 17 or later. A Mac (Apple silicon) can run it via iPad compatibility, though it's designed for touch.

Capture & voice

How does the number pad work?

There are two selectors. The horizontal row at the top is the set; the grid is the card number. Pick a set once, then type card numbers and hit Add. Set stays selected until you change it — perfect for ripping a pack from one set.

Can I mark a card as foil?

Yes — there's a Normal/Foil toggle above the pad. Voice capture also understands "foil" at the end of a phrase.

How does voice capture work?

Tap the mic and say something like "set 4, card 188, foil". Lorcana's six ink colors, set numbers, card numbers, and the word "foil" all parse into an entry. Speech recognition runs 100% on-device via Apple's Speech framework — nothing leaves your phone.

Why is voice capture marked as beta?

It's a fun way to add cards, but on-device models sometimes mishear. Every voice-added card gets an asterisk in your collection so you can spot-check later. If a phrase doesn't parse, it's held in Recents so you can tap to fix or dismiss it.

What's the Recents list for?

It shows the last captures, successful or failed, in order. Tap a failed entry to correct it. Useful for double-checking a pack rip without scrolling your whole collection.

Sessions

What's Session mode for?

When you open new packs, you only want to share the new cards - not a re-export of your entire collection. Start a session, add cards as normal (they also go into your permanent collection), then end the session and export just that bundle.

Can I have more than one session?

Sessions are one-at-a-time. End one and start another when you open new packs. Past session exports are kept as CSVs you can re-share from the Files app.

Import & export

How do I import from Dreamborn?

Export your collection from Dreamborn as Bulk CSV, then in Lorecodex go to Settings → Import Collection and pick the file. Counts and foils are rebuilt from the file exactly.

What export formats are supported?

Dreamborn Bulk CSV and Lorcana.gg formats. Scope can be full collection or current session only. Exports use iOS's share sheet — save to Files, email it, upload to iCloud Drive, whatever you like.

Where does card data come from?

The Lorcast API. Lorecodex makes read-only requests using set and card identifiers only — no account info, no personal data.

Privacy & sync

What data leaves my device?

Only two things, both voluntary: (1) set/card ID lookups to Lorcast for card data; (2) feedback messages, if you send them through the in-app form. No analytics, no crash reporters, no third-party SDKs, no audio.

How does iCloud sync work?

If enabled, your collection syncs across your devices through Apple's CloudKit in your private iCloud container. I can't see it. To turn it off, use iOS Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → Lorecodex.

How do I delete my collection?

In Lorecodex, open Settings → "Banish Entire Collection". If you also use iCloud, remove the Lorecodex iCloud data from iOS Settings → Apple ID → iCloud → Manage Storage.

Is there a privacy policy?

Yes — right here.

The app itself

Who makes Lorecodex?

Aaron Jones, as a hobby project. It's not a company, not a service, not a startup. Just a tool I wanted for my own collection and figured others might want too.

Is this official?

No. Lorecodex is a fan app made under Ravensburger's Community Code Policy. It's not published, endorsed, or approved by Disney or Ravensburger. For official Lorcana info, visit disneylorcana.com.

Is there an Android version?

No, and there probably won't be. Sorry!

I found a bug / want a feature.
