Line the card up inside the frame and fill it as much as you can. Even light, no flash — glare is what defeats it. Pokémon only for now, and if it can't read the card you can type the name instead.
How this works. Text recognition runs on your own device — the photo is never uploaded, only the text it reads. Recognition is best-effort: holo glare, creases and older card fonts all make it harder, so when it misses, type the name and pick from the suggestions. Values come from the same consensus engine as the rest of SplitShot — here's how they're computed.
