Ciao a tutti,

Sono uno sviluppatore indipendente e collezionista di Pokémon TCG, e da alcuni mesi sto costruendo **Dexly**, un'app progettata per aiutare i collezionisti a trovare altri collezionisti nelle vicinanze e scambiare carte più facilmente.

L'idea è venuta da un problema che ho vissuto personalmente:

Puoi avere centinaia di carte duplicate, carte mancanti nella tua collezione o carte che vorresti scambiare... ma trovare la persona giusta nelle vicinanze è sorprendentemente difficile.

La maggior parte degli scambi oggi avviene tramite gruppi Facebook sparsi, server Discord, mercatini o comunità locali. Le informazioni sono frammentate e spesso non sai nemmeno se ci sono altri collezionisti intorno a te.

Quindi ho iniziato a costruire Dexly:

* 📍 Scopri collezionisti vicino a te * 🃏 Mostra la tua collezione e le carte disponibili per il trading * 🤝 Connettiti con persone che hanno carte di cui hai bisogno * 🌎 Crea una comunità locale di collezionisti

L'app è attualmente in **alpha chiusa** e sto cercando utenti precoci disposti a provarla e a dare feedback sincero.

Non sto cercando persone che dicano semplicemente "idea interessante" — sto cercando di capire:

* Risolve un problema reale? * La useresti effettivamente regolarmente? * Quali funzionalità la renderebbero più preziosa? * Cosa ti farebbe smettere di usarla?

Sono particolarmente interessato ai feedback da:

* collezionisti di Pokémon TCG * chiunque sia interessato a prodotti in fase iniziale

Se sei interessato a provarla o semplicemente a condividere i tuoi pensieri, apprezzerei davvero il tuo feedback.

Grazie per aver letto!

Hey everyone,

I’m a solo developer and Pokémon TCG collector, and for the last few months I’ve been building Dexly, an app designed to help collectors find other collectors nearby and trade cards more easily.

The idea came from a problem I experienced myself:

You can have hundreds of duplicate cards, missing cards from your collections, or cards you would like to trade… but finding the right person nearby is surprisingly difficult.

Most trades today happen through scattered Facebook groups, Discord servers, marketplaces, or local communities. The information is fragmented, and often you don’t even know if there are other collectors around you.

So I started building Dexly:

• 📍 Discover collectors near you
• 🃏 Show your collection and cards available for trade
• 🤝 Connect with people who have cards you need
• 🌎 Build a local community of collectors

The app is currently in closed alpha, and I’m looking for early users who are willing to try it and give honest feedback.

I’m not looking for people to simply say "cool idea" — I’m trying to understand:

• Does this solve a real problem?
• Would you actually use something like this regularly?
• What features would make it more valuable?
• What would stop you from using it?

I’m especially interested in feedback from:

• Pokémon TCG collectors
• anyone interested in early-stage products

If you’re interested in testing it or just sharing your thoughts, I’d really appreciate your feedback.

Thanks for reading!

Hey! We're a tiny team building Dexly, an Android app to trade real Pokémon cards face-to-face with collectors near you. We're running Google's 14-day closed test and need people to opt in — I'll happily test your app back, just drop the link.

The idea: you build a digital binder of the cards you have and want, see what people nearby are offering, and set up a fair trade in person.

Being upfront: the app is brand new, so the "nearby collectors" part is still pretty empty for now. What already works well is building your binder and browsing the full card catalog with official images. Right now the app is in Italian, but the card database already handles EN/FR/DE/ES/PT, so English is on the way.

To join (3 quick steps):

1. Join the Google Group: https://groups.google.com/g/dexly-open-beta
2. Open the opt-in link and become a tester: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/it.dexly.app
3. Install from the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.dexly.app

One small ask so it actually counts for Google: please open the app 2–3 times over the 14 days — add a couple of cards to your binder and take a look at the radar. Takes 30 seconds and it keeps the test valid on their end. 🙏

Drop your app below and I'll test it back — the Dexly team.

Ciao! Siamo un piccolo team che sta sviluppando Dexly, un'app Android per scambiare carte Pokémon reali di persona con altri collezionisti nelle vicinanze. Stiamo partecipando al test chiuso di Google di 14 giorni e abbiamo bisogno di persone che si iscrivano: sarei felice di testare la tua app, basta che mi mandi il link.

L'idea è questa: crei un raccoglitore digitale con le carte che possiedi e che desideri, vedi cosa offrono gli altri giocatori nelle vicinanze e concordi uno scambio equo di persona.

Per essere chiari: l'app è nuovissima, quindi la sezione "collezionisti nelle vicinanze" è ancora piuttosto vuota. Ciò che funziona già bene è la possibilità di creare il proprio raccoglitore e sfogliare il catalogo completo delle carte con le immagini ufficiali. Al momento l'app è in italiano, ma il database delle carte supporta già inglese, francese, tedesco, spagnolo e portoghese, quindi l'inglese arriverà presto.

Per partecipare:

• Gruppo Google: https://groups.google.com/g/dexly-open-beta

• Conferma l'iscrizione: https://play.google.com/apps/testing/it.dexly.app

• App: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.dexly.app

• Quindi installa l'app dal Play Store e, per favore, mantieni l'iscrizione per tutti i 14 giorni 🙏

Lascia il link della tua app qui sotto e la testerò.

Quick update on Dexly (trade real Pokémon cards face-to-face with collectors

near you). In my first post I said the app was Italian-only, with English "on

the way" — the card search side is now here. 🎉

As of today's build, you can SET your card search language in the app's

settings (from your profile): English, Italian, French, German, Spanish,

Portuguese. You pick your language once (new users choose it on first launch),

and the card search, set names and images all follow it. So it's not a "mixed"

multilingual search — it's a language you set for yourself, and the whole

catalog adapts to it.

This came straight from tester feedback — a few of you flagged that search was

Italian-only, so it jumped to the top of the list. Exactly what this test is

for. 🙏

To be upfront: the app's interface itself (menus, buttons) is still in Italian

for now. A full English / multilingual UI is something we're considering, but

it's still at the design stage — not in development yet. So for the moment the

menus are Italian even if your card search is in English.

Still running the 14-day closed test, and happy to test your app back — just

drop your link below.

App Name: Dexly

App Category: Social — local trading for Pokémon TCG collectors

Testing Goals: Finishing the 14-day closed testing to reach production. Dexly

helps collectors find people nearby to swap cards with — build your binder, see

who has the cards you want on a local radar, chat, and arrange safe in-person

trades with reviews. Looking for testers who open the app, add a couple of

cards and try the core flow (binder → radar → propose a trade). Any feedback

welcome. Fresh builds pushed regularly (search now works in 6 languages).

Free, no ads.
