v1.2.0
A 3D card view, four Extras, a deck of them on the home page, and Revelio for Discord.
Cards and browsing
- Cards open in a 3D view: drag to turn, scroll or pinch to zoom, flip it, or turn it upright. A 2D/3D switch changes one page; the default is in the settings menu, which also holds the theme.
- Previous and Next buttons on card pages, and the left and right arrow keys. Card scans share one even black border.
- Quidditch Cup is now listed in Spanish, in both finishes.
- Set pages, Promos and Advanced Search can show a grid of pictures instead of rows.
- Advanced Search shows how many cards each option gives, has folding sections, searchable subtype and artist lists, card text and flavor text boxes, removable filter chips, a RevelioQL version of your search to copy, sorting by artist and Download CSV.
- RevelioQL has two new keys, text: and flavor:.
- Lesson icons are pictures, and lesson codes in card text, like [P], show the icon.
- The HPTCG Timeline, on the Research page.
Extras
- Daily Remembrall Puzzle: guess the day's card from a blurred scan in six tries, with hints for set, type, lesson, rarity, artist and number. Copy or save a picture of your result.
- Card Roulette: a roller that stops on a random card, in the same mix as an 11-card pack (6 Common, 2 Lesson, 2 Uncommon, 1 Rare, and a Premium in place of a Common about one pack in three). It has sound, a set filter, your last eight pulls and sharing, and Space spins.
- The Sorting Hat: 10 questions, then your house and a card, with a shareable result and picture.
- Birthday Card: a card for every date.
Home page
- A deck of the Extras under the hero, in a different order on every visit. Today's Card and Artist of the Day are just below it.
- The daily picks change at midnight New York time.
Revelio for Discord
- A free Discord app: /revelio looks up a card by name or runs a RevelioQL search, /image sends a card's scan, /random, /today, /artist and /syntax. Add it from About → Discord App.
- It can't read messages and doesn't store anything. Each person is limited to 3 commands every 10 seconds and 10 a minute.
