How is data backed up on this device? I would hate to devote hours to inputting my collection then for some reason lose that data.
Is the only form of backup if I use the cloud backup on my Ipad?
If so it sounds like the websites that allow collection storage are more useful then since you won't ever lose that data.
All of the data you input is stored in a standard SQLLite datavase inside the app. Each time you sync the iPad with iTunes it backs up this data, and if you have elected to use iCloud for device backups, it is preserved there as well.
In addition to these standard backups, you can choose to make a manual backup of any list on the device, including the cards you have. This gives you a simple text file that you can email to yourself for safekeeping. It is human readable, and can be used to restore your collection onto another iPad.
Theros, Heroes vs. Monsters, and From the Vault: Twenty have been added.
Additionally, to celebrate my actually being able to make it to a prerelease, Magic Collection will be on sale on Saturday and Sunday! Track the cards you open and use it to plan out your sealed deck.
My iPad isn't playing nice with iOS 7 at the moment, so if you've upgraded yours and notice anything strange in the app, please let me know.
