Thanks for expanding that old app! It was a nice app, but more features were desperatley needed! However, my device is still on Xenial and there's no timeline for a Focal build yet (it should come, as it's not that old of a device yet, but no ETA), so it would be fantastic if you would could add Xenial support! 🙂

As reported by the 'M Duarte' user at openstore, dark sytem theme causes, that barcodes are not visible.

Hello!
I inserted an empty card by mistake, and I'm unable to delete it :-)
Is this somehow possible or not yet implemented?

It would be probably useful to highlight the most used and/or favorite (marked) cards in the list.

The current list is sorted simply by last edit - it should be OK for short card lists, it could however cause a mess if there are a lot of cards.

There are several options:

1. create a dedicated view/list of favorite/most used cards only - similar to the "Favorite" view in Ubuntu-Touch Contacts
2. show favorite/most used cards in the front of the list - in the dedicated area
3. sort cards by usage frequency (this has the drawback of decreasing the stability of the list, which may result in decreased usability)

Currently, I personally prefer option 1.

Czech business chains like Albert or Kaufland have static loyalty cards provided through their apps.
Scanning ends with codes not recognized. Albert has barcode style, Kaufland uses QR code style.

I tried to scan codes with Tagger app:

• Albert barcode did not pass
  • https://products.aspose.app/barcode/recognize recognized card as Code-128
• Kaufland QR code successfully read, but cannot be recreated in UBcards or in Tagger (looks different)
  • https://www.the-qrcode-generator.com gives matching output
  • https://qrgenerator.cz/#text generates not matching QR code with same input
  • UBcards generates QR code which is completely different from other generated through official app or web pages above

I will try to use the "wrong" codes in near future to determine whether it is needed to modify some generation settings.

Implement Manual Focus when scanning with camera. It could help with scanning on certain devices.

I have three loyalty cards, Shop1 (Loyalty) Shop2 (Loyalty) Shop3 (Shopping).
If I edit the Shop2 to change category to Sport, it became: Shop2 (Sport) Shop2 (Loyalty) Shop3 (Shopping).
And Shop1 have completely disappeared

So instead of saving the changes to the second position, it saved it to the first position thus erasing the most recent entry :-/
Same if I edit the third position...

The idea behind categories is to clear the list of cards. To keep it simple, there should be a few categories only. The philosophy is as follows: categories should be as generic as possible, while they should cover most use cases well. My idea was to have up to 10 categories to preserve simplicity.

Currently, there are these categories:

• Car - for cards related to car(s), such as oil/tank stations, etc.
• Health - for cards related to health, such as pharmacy, spa, etc.
• Sport - for cards related to sport
• Travel - for cards related to traveling, like passes, public transport, etc.
• Restaurant - a generic category for restaurants
• Shopping - generic category for shops
• Loyalty Card - for all other cards

These categories work for my use case, however, I don't know how you would like to use your app.

Is the philosophy OK from your perspective?

Please propose the missing categories!
