What Makes Net Deck Stand Out
Net Deck is the first unofficial deck building app for Android: Netrunner on iOS, providing a clean, easy-to-use interface for building and tracking your deck lists. All deck building and browsing is fully offline, no data connection required after the initial card data download!
Major Features:
- Build and view deck lists completely offline by downloading card data and/or images

- View decks in three different modes to see the information that's important to you
- Analyze your deck with in-depth tools including legality, sets used, card distribution breakdowns, and a draw simulator
- Browse cards for your deck — filter by name, text, cost, strength, influence, type and more
- See the card art for any card simply by tapping on it
- Share decks quickly and easily with tons of export options in multiple formats including OCTGN files
- Set which sets and data packs you own — only see the cards you want to build with
- Backup deck lists to Dropbox automatically
- Full integration with NetrunnerDB
- Upload decks to Jinteki.net
Net Deck is available in English, German, French, Spanish and Japanese.

Recent Updates & Development
Latest Update: 4th April 2021
Recent improvements include:
This version brings full support for NISEI's new System Gateway and System Update 2021 products, as well as the corresponding rotation.
To make checking cards even easier, you can now view a text-only version of each card wherever there are full-sized images – this is mostly achieved by a long-press gesture on the item that would usually pop up the full image.
Also, finally, Dark Mode! \o/

Player Experience Highlights
Community Insight:
Hey devs. Love your work. Really handy having this app. Good job, it's a must have for any Netrunner player.
Love this app. It's well supported, and does everything we could want it to do. The UI is smooth. Well done.
We use this app plenty; it syncs well with our NDB account and Dropbox. Recommended if you like flicking through cards in transit or picking away at deck ideas on the go.
Hands down the best way to build, tune, tweak, sync, import and export Netrunner decks!! Heck, the best way to just learn the cards! Its sooo convenient and easy to use. Id recommend it to anyone who wants to get into Netrunner (and you should, this game is alive and growing in 2024 and beyond!) Net Deck has become the #1 used app on our phone. We use it whenever Ive got 5 minutes. Its replaced our daily crossword puzzle.
The gold standard for Netrunner deckbuilding and storage. A beautifully-implemented, slick and simple app for building, importing, and exporting decks, made all the better for its ability to navigate the post-FFG era. One request we would make would be for support of the Netrunner Reboot Project and its associated versions of NetrunnerDB and Jinteki (we.e. Reteki). Then we would give it 6 stars.
We have spent more hours tinkering with decks on this app than Im comfortable counting. Its elegantly built; its minimalist UI is easier to navigate than JNet or NetrunnerDB (plus it syncs to accounts in both places anyway!); and it supports customization for the myriad gametypes and cardpools that NISEI supports. Bravo! We have on thing on our wishlist: a slightly more robust feature to test how decks draw! Perhaps incorporating the ability to shuffle cards back in, or (say) tutor for breakers, would allow users to effectively play several rounds solo, getting a feel for each deck before it even hits the table. Still, amazing, amazing app.
We used net deck for like 5-6 years we think?Sadly its no longer available in mainland China so we switched to US to download the newer version. Everything is fine but somehow the banlist cannot be updated which is weird.Other than that its better than perfect.
You can select what cards you own and build decks from those sets, you can sync your decklist with netrunnerdb or straight into jinteki to play. Its fantastic, thank you devs.
Love that the dev is continuing support. Leave a tip because its good work that he is doing.
This app has amazing support, and has the same functionality as Netrunnerdb. Perfect for deck building on the go when an idea strikes and you arent near a computer.
Great app love using it but breaking news is missing from the core set its in some other set.
At this point we don't really know how anyone builds decks for netrunner without this app. Great integration with netrunnerdb for sharing your latest creations.
Find the app useful and easy to use. Developer updates often.
It works perfectly, and in tandem with the best NR site out there.
This is a great app and useful for any netrunner player.
Simply put, this app should be a model for all apps that purport to help you build a deck for a game. It works flawlessly for us. We love it. We wish star wars destiny had something similar. One of its best features is in settings where it lets you apply various most wanted list (card balance adjustments) that were set up by ffg when building your list. If you have a lot of cards then this really is the best way to make a deck. Thanks to the devs.
Quick updates and really good design make this app easy to use. If you play Netrunner this is a must have.
Helps you keep all of your decks straight. A must-have for any player.
We love this app so much that Im asking the developer to replicate it for all the other games out there: L5R, AGOT, Arkham Horror, etc. The card search is smooth and all encompassing/regularly updated. The connections to NRDB is amazing. Highly recommend.
Simple to filter cards, easy to use for browsing and discovering cards we havent seen before. The only thing which would make it better would be effect text searching, but no one currently provides that for netrunner.
The inventiveness and public spiritedness of the NR community never ceases to astound. This app lets us review and modify decks on the go, and it has essential compatibility with Netrunnerdb.
The game may be going out of print, but this app will live on as the best way to create and edit decks for Netrunner.
An absolutely essential tool for creating and organizing decks.
This app is a serious boon, allowing us to check cards and decks while on the move, prepping lists for tournaments, and pulling up cards to win arguments with friends.
Im relatively new to Netrunner and, like an insane person, bought every card in the game right off the bat. That is a LOT of cards to manage and learn. Net Deck makes it easy. You can browse collections, filter on pretty much any criteria you can think of, and easily build your own deck; all with loads of intuitive options wrapped in a very user friendly design. This is pretty much a must-have for all collections. Major kudos and thanks to the developer.
Now updated to integrate the NAPD Most Wanted List. Been using the deck builder for a while and it's the best deck builder in the app store. Has all the filters you need and is quite fast. Super easy to build a deck and explore the card pool. Super easy to transfer and share lists. Support for the app has been wonderful with the designer always being receptive to feedback and bugs. Highly recommended.
Decided to finally leave a review now that it's NAPDMW certified. It was having trouble in the beginning connecting to Netrunnerdb, but no longer. No complaints. Just a fine app for all our deck building needs.
We use this app all the time for building decks and searching cards.
This tool has become our default for deck construction on iOS.
We found this tool to be really useful for designing and updating decks. It's awesome that it syncs with NetrunnerDB as well, so whatever edits you make here can go there and vice versa. Simple for now, but it's still in the early stages of its development (is our guess), so can't complain.
We love this app, it's great for taking with us to play sessions so we can quickly look up new-to-us cards without having to pick them up off the table. Any idea on a timeline for implementing the new NAPD Most Wanted list (from FFG official tournament rules ver 3.0.2).
Thank you so much for Net Deck, we use it basically (and sadly) every day in iPad, it's our favorite way to play with decks by far. App works brilliantly.
This app supporting netrunnerdb import and export service is great. If you use dropbox you can. Thank you for ios app net deck developer.
This app is very good. It auto-updates cards as they become discoverable through netrunnerdb, and can sync decks back and forth between nrdb and jinteki.net. The interface is easy to use. It supports all the current deckbuilding rule options, and the author has gotten updates for changes out pretty quickly. We're so thankful this exists.
Very handy and always being updated with latest card info and deck building restrictions.
Net Deck is a fantastic deck-building resource. A must-have for any Netrunner player, especially now that the jinteki and netrunnerdb connections are back up.
Only tool we use for deckbuilding. Necessary updates are quick and we can't think of a single feature that is missing.
We love netrunner and we love this app!! A go to when sitting around building decks.
Deck creation has never been quicker and this gives you all the info you need while building. Even has a draw simulator to test your build. Clean, efficient UI. And it even has Dropbox support, so your decks are safe no matter what. Its so thought out we actually prefer this to Jinteki and NetrunnerDB.
Built a deck in minutes because of the search function, love the card draw probability, and netrunnerdb connectivity. Made us think more about what we want to see early on besides Sure Gamble. Our only suggestion is to find tune or filter searches when you are looking for something specific, ex: Criminal, icebreaker, sentry etc. Great job overall.
Great app for building decks. Easy to filter and explore cards you may want to include. Hooks to netrunnerdb make it easy to synchronize decks across devices. Thanks for all the hard work.
The app can't connect to NetrunnerDB, so it can't sync with our account, update card data, download card images, or basically anything else.
Helpful and organized. We wish there was a port to the iPhone, but love it.
Simple, convenient way to browse the Netrunner cards on your iPad.
By far the best netrunner deck builder out there. Integration with netrunnerdb is easy, and we much prefer the deck editing here.
This is an amazing offline tool. Excellent searching, building and testing features. Could update with the latest card packs more quickly. Minor feature requests: 1. Allow for easy determination of a cards set from in a deck. 2. Allow for building with all sets and then marking with owned sets. So you can see which cards you need to buy.
Net Deck is a splendid alternative to online deck building tools.
Amazingly flexible tool. Full card art, you can select which sets to include in your database, and the controls are very intuitive. Strongly recommend for any Netrunner fan.
Our favorite deck builder by far. We have over 400 decks in it, championship decks and interesting ones from all over. It can download directly from netrunnerDB. It shows analysis of the deck, allows sample draws, keeps a record of changes to decks, keeps notes on the deck, and has multiple display options for the decks. This is an essential app for ANR deck develoment.
This app is just what you need if you want to build decks without having to take them apart. Our favorite feature is the keyword searching. The abilities to import/export decks and run analysis are icing on the cake.
