Great Game, App functionality could be better – Pokémon TCG Online Review

Been playing this a while on my desktop PC and recently got an iPad so decided to try it out. Immediately disappointed that there is no QR code reader functionality on the app, the iPad has a great camera, so there’s no reason for this. Even tried going to the website in Safari to no avail. Also, I see no reason that this couldn’t be an iPhone app. Despite also starting out as an iPad only app, Hearthstone has successfully been around on iPhone for years now. Also, my friends with Samsung phones were able to download an APK and play on their phones, and the game runs just fine; so I’m a little disappointed I can only play on my iPad or PC. Also, they are even able to use the QR reader for online blister packs on their Samsung phones, yet somehow I am unable to on my iPad. Lastly, the animation isn’t as fluid on my 2017 iPad Pro as even Hearthstone is running on my iPhone 6S+ that’s over 3 years old. The gameplay itself is great, my only suggestion is that there be a better ranking system, if you play online, new players with small collections are pitted against seasoned players that have a plethora of GX cards, and it can be a little disheartening to be destroyed over and over again.
