Lunidex vs Dex: Pokémon TCG collection tools compared
A dated comparison of Lunidex and Dex, the Pokémon TCG collection product whose official site carries the Dexbit copyright notice. Product facts below were checked against Dex’s official website, platform guide, Web and Android Early Access guide, and scanner help on October 6, 2026.
Lunidex editorial
Short answer
Dex by Dexbit offers a web app and iOS and Android apps. Its Help Center says the Web and Android versions are in Early Access and may lack some iOS features. The camera scanner is a Dex+ feature available only on iOS and Android, not on the web. Dex’s official site lists a free tier and a $3.99/month Dex+ plan. Lunidex is a web app that combines a public TCG catalog and account-backed personal collection with a general Pokémon Pokédex and team tools. It does not document a card scanner.
What Dex by Dexbit is built for
This page compares product pages and public documentation, not independent hands-on testing. Dex’s official site describes card and set browsing, variants, price sources, collection folders, wishlists, Pokémon card-collection progress, and mobile scanning. Its Help Center says Web and Android are in Early Access and some iOS features are not yet available there. Lunidex documents a TCGdex catalog, account-backed owned and wanted-card state, set progress, and separate Pokémon reference and team-planning tools. Dex’s displayed plan price and features can change.

Where the tools overlap
Both products help Pokémon TCG collectors browse cards and sets, organize collection goals, and review price information when sources provide it. Neither product’s displayed estimate alone verifies physical condition or guarantees a sale price.
How Lunidex differs
Dex is a TCG-specialist product with iOS, Android, and Web access. Its Help Center marks Web and Android as Early Access, with some iOS features still unavailable there; Dex+ camera scanning is limited to iOS and Android. Lunidex is a web-first Pokémon workspace that adds game-reference pages and team planning to its TCG catalog. Lunidex personal collection records require a signed-in account and an available configured sync service.
Which tool fits the job?
Dex may fit collectors who want a dedicated TCG catalog, variant-aware price sources, and camera scanning on iOS or Android, subject to the current Dex+ plan and supported devices. Its Web and Android editions are in Early Access and may have fewer features than iOS. Lunidex may fit people who want public web catalog browsing alongside a general Pokémon Pokédex and team builder. Choose based on the workflow, current platform and price details, and whether an account-backed collection service is available.
