Filters & presets

The filter builder

The advanced filters screen builds complex queries visually: colors and color identity (each with its own match mode — exactly / including / at most), types and subtypes, mana value, power/toughness, oracle text (with ALL / ANY / NOT constraints), rarity, sets, language, price ranges and more. Filters combine with whatever is in the search bar.

One mechanic to know, and the two platforms differ on it:

In the app — nothing runs until you press "Apply (N)". The button counts your active filters, and leaving the screen with back discards unapplied edits. Filters are built deliberately, then fired once. On the web — the filter panel applies as you go, with Clear all filters to start over. Nothing to confirm, and nothing to lose by leaving.

Three filters worth knowing:

• Language narrows results to prints in a specific language. You don't need it to find a card by its foreign name — typing the name in any language just works.
• Group results controls how printings are listed: All prints (the default) shows every printing, Unique art shows one result per artwork, Cards shows one row per unique card.
• Price filters against your active price source — "under $15" means under $15 in the market you're browsing in. It doesn't pin a source; only Views do that, because a saved view has to match the same cards for every viewer.

Presets

Presets are an app feature. Save a filter combination and reuse it in one move — "Standard removal", "commanders under $5", "foils in my colors". The bookmark icon on the filters screen opens the preset list; saving needs at least one active filter, saving under an existing name overwrites it, and presets live on the device (they don't sync). You can keep up to 30 (all plans).

Presets differ from Views: a preset is a reusable search input; a view is a persistent lens over what you own that lives on your collection screen.
