Getting Started

Interface tour

The five sections of the Silvane app and what lives in each one.

The app is organized into five sections — in this on-screen order, left to right. On a phone they sit in a bar along the bottom. On a tablet they move to a navigation column down the left edge, and some of them gain a second column; the sections and their order are the same either way. See Silvane on a tablet.

The web has its own layout. See Silvane on the web.

Collection

Your home base. The hub shows your total value and its trend, your binders, lists and folders, and a row of collection tools: Views, Price Alerts, Watchlist, Top Movers, Rules, Loans and the Ledger, which is Pro. With nothing in it yet, it shows Start your collection and its ways in; see Create your first binder. See Building your collection.

Tapping Collection while you are already on it opens Search your collection. While new card data downloads or installs, a ring with the percent sits in the header; see Storage & Sync.

Decks

Every deck you've built, organized into folders (My Decks), plus Precons, the read-only catalog of every Commander precon, to browse and clone. With no deck yet, My Decks shows Build your first deck: Import Deck, Start from a precon (each precon you pick becomes a deck) and Create Deck. See Decks.

Scan

The camera scanner. Point at a card, let the scanner recognize the exact printing, and commit the tray to any binder, list or deck. See Scanning.

The full Magic catalog. Search by name with suggestions, use Scryfall-style syntax or the advanced filter builder, browse sets (Cards | Sets | SL; SL is every Secret Lair drop, superdrop and product) and the Booster Guide, and discover top commanders and newly printed cards. See Search & Discovery.
