Set Completion Tracking
How Tappr tracks your progress toward completing Magic: The Gathering sets, including foils and special printings.
Common questions
01 What is set completion tracking?
Set completion tracking compares the cards you own against the full checklist for a given Magic set, showing you a completion percentage and exactly which cards you're still missing. It's built for anyone chasing down a full set, whether that's a recent Standard set or an older classic set.
02 Which sets can I track in Tappr?
Tappr supports set completion tracking across the game's catalog, from early sets through the newest releases like Foundations and Bloomburrow. As new sets release, they get added to the tracker so you can start building toward them from day one.
03 How does Tappr know what I am missing from a set?
As you scan and add cards to your collection, Tappr automatically checks them off against that set's full card list. Open a set's tracker page and you'll see your owned cards alongside a clearly marked list of everything you don't have yet, so you always know what to look for next.
04 Are foil and special versions tracked separately from the base set?
Yes. Because foils, borderless cards, showcase frames, and other special treatments are distinct printings, Tappr tracks them as their own entries rather than lumping them in with the standard version. You can track completion for the base set alone or include every alternate treatment, depending on which version of "complete" you're chasing.
05 Do tokens and promos count toward set completion?
Standard set completion is based on the numbered card checklist for that set, which is what most collectors track toward. Tokens and separately numbered promotional cards are generally tracked as their own category rather than folded into the main set percentage, since they're typically optional extras rather than part of the core set you're trying to finish.
06 Can I share my set completion progress with others?
Yes, you can share a snapshot of your set completion progress straight from the app — it shows your completion percentage along with a visual breakdown of owned versus missing cards, which is a handy way to show off progress or ask trading partners for help tracking down what you still need.
