Try uninstalling the app and reinstalling it
I hope this helps someone.
Yesterday I had the idea that maybe uninstalling the app and reinstalling it might help, and it did for me!!! I was able to sign in and scan the stack of tickets I had waiting to be scanned.

Issue not that bad
It seemed to scan better when there was a line to center barcode on but lately it has been scanning very well. Very helpful. Keep up the good work.
Will NOT scan tix without REGISTRATION!
This app is a borderline scam. Not only is it one of the most poorly designed and counterintuitive “Official” State lottery apps, but this is (so far) the ONLY one that actually *requires* you to register a full account before it will allow you to use ANY feature, including the Scan Ticket feature. Add to that, the scanner is massively bug-ridden and frequently reports innaccurate results (iPhone 14 Pro Max running iOS 17.4.1) and this app seems to be running close to outright fraudulent and legally actionable. SCEL needs to get their technology act together, because this is a sham and I can’t see how there isn’t legitimate legal exposure peddling this piece of garbage as their “Official” lottery application.

What a waste
This app only has 20% functionality of the website. The most disturbing part is the talent running SC app and Website are so under qualified the app or website only works parts of the time . This is a example when you worry about equality instead of qualified people . The website and app use to run 100% accurate until they made changes just for spite. The citizens of South Carolina are so ashamed of what this outfit has become!

Drawings not updated until the next day.
This app is called Players Club. In my opinion that implies “special privileges”. Maybe it does provide exclusive access to certain functions and features. However if all you really want to know it tonight’s drawing/ winning numbers don’t look here, you will have to look online at other outlets. This app waits until the next day to post the latest drawing. That’s kind of opposite of special players club privileges if you want my opinion.

Just as awful as SC’s roads and healthcare!
The South Carolina lottery app is a masterpiece of frustration. It navigates just like a road under construction, reminiscent of the state's questionable infrastructure. Attempting to scan tickets is a game of chance itself, often resulting in an ear-piercing beep that could shatter glass – a feature seemingly designed to make you question your life choices. It's like the app took lessons from the healthcare system on how to leave users feeling utterly defeated. Good luck navigating this digital labyrinth without losing your sanity! This state cannot get anything right!

Ticket scan failure
App frequently, and I mean frequently mis-scans my tickets. What happens is it scans one but when scanning subsequent tickets it often does NOT display the new ticket and re-displays the information from the previous ticket. You might have a winner but toss it because the app says it’s not a winner. Be sure when you scan it shows the current ticket and scan each ticket multiple times. If you have several PB and MM tickets alter them to make sure it says Thank you for playing “Powerball”! (or Megamillions).

Uninstall first and update app
I like to close all apps and whatever is open. Delete app. And go to store to find app to reinstall. With this update I initially accepted update opening app. Took me to the store but wouldn’t open. Only a blank white page. But once I deleted the app etc. Reinstalling it worked fine. My only issue is when I checked a scratch off it showed not a winner. And offered to enter a second chance. It didn’t not have the means on that page to click to view past winnings left. Made me search for it in Scratch off promotions. And I don’t think they list ALL promotions that tickets are still being sold. But I was able to scroll and scroll past many to find each 5 dollar scratch off to finally find the one I had. Use to be you could just click to view 5 dollar scratch offs and see all to scroll past. Now you scroll past 10, 1, whatever. To spy a 5. That likely isn’t it. Repeat scrolling with all mixed together to find what you are looking for.

App works well and provides quick barcode check
The app speed is good, the ticket checker can be a little slow during busy times, but overall works well for lookups and checking on your account and promotion statuses.
Weak - Needs Major Improvements
If you want to check your tickets to see if you won anything, this app is for you. That’s it, that is basically all this app does. I live near NC and when comparing this app to NC’s app it’s like night and day. There is no option to purchase tickets on this app like in NC where I can load my balance and purchase tickets for consecutive drawings in advance. NC allows you to play quick picks or select your own numbers. It was 2023 the last time I checked and this app is still living in 2005. It is so outdated and behind in technology. There is no rewards program. You can’t play games or read articles to earn points toward second chance drawings. There is no option to check which scratch off cards still have winning tickets available for purchase. NC also offers occasional deals where if you buy a certain number of tickets or a group of different game tickets they will give you a few dollars off. This app gives nothing but headaches, as it constantly has glitches, such as not scanning tickets properly and just not functioning well. Once this app is brought to the current technology level, then maybe it will be beneficial.
