You can use this to print tournament legal proxies using the "Print some" button.

Great work Ke.!
I had completely missed this... looked randomly for VTES in App Store and got lucky!
The web-version is also useful for a Mac user stuck with old ARDB.
And the proxy-printing is just a-ma-zing!
By the way, one question... is there a way to see just the "old" images of the cards (i.e. the official ones, not put in the new layout), when browsing cards or otherwise (i.e., besides the possibility to have them in pdf format when printing proxies)? Many thanks!

It's slightly slower / less reactive than Vampidroid (notably on searches) but has some added functionalities.
In the crypt search, when toggling the discipline icons to filter, there's a noticeable delay (about 1 second) because I suppose it starts the search as soon as you toggle it. The right thing to do is to wait that the user has toggled all the filters they want before starting the search (this can be done by waiting 1 second after that the user has toggled something for the last time). This way, the interface doesn't freeze when you start toggling the filters.
There's another annoying thing: the yellow done button should close the filter box once you've selected your filters. Currently, it only helps closing submenu, but when there's no submenu opened, it does nothing.
The filter box should also close when you click outside it.
Also, when listing the vampire, there isn't an option to display its cardtext in the result list. You have to click on it to read it, which is much slower than on Vampidroid.
I don't know if there's a more appropriate place to list those requests but I know Chris reads it so...

Love the look and ease of the app. I'm experiencing some trouble with importing from SecretLibrary.
EDIT: This was only the case for one deck, an older Followers of Set deck.

Hi Ke!
I must first of all say that as an iPhone user I'm super happy to finally see an iOS APP seeing the light.
I think the APP is awesome and I must say it is hard to see such a good finished product. Did you do it on your own? Did someone besides you test the APP?
I found a couple of annoying behaviors also:
-while building a deck and adding library cards to the deck you need to click once on the plus button before you can start adding cards - is this intended?
-the search engine does not work like other tools - example: try searching for minion tap
I will let you know if I find some other stuff.

No, it's correct. But you must type "Villein" instead.

Yes, it does a full text search on the words "minion tap" and will show cards that contain *both* words. So for example it matches glancing blow:

Previously such a search would only match the title; however full text search is overall far more useful. Yes, in some cases such as this it seems odd (here due to two very common terms: minion + tap); however overall it is more often beneficial than detrimental.

Great; glad you like it. Local players initially assisted with the testing and now input comes from over 300 registered users like yourself — it was just a quick side project from what I normally do at www.zeroloop.com
The most up to date version of the app is always online here: amaranth.vtes.co.nz . All the app versions are derived from this.

Which plus button? the large ones are to decide which type of cards to add (crypt / library) and from there the small buttons should add or remove to the deck immediately.

Yes I mean the plus button from the popup while you are searching for the cards.
