Please add these features to the app
I would like to see these features added to the app:
1. I think this feature will be very beneficial to all users who purchased tickets with multiple drawing dates. Add something where you can scan the ticket in, and it remembers that ticket. If you win, it sends you a push notification.
2. An option to purchase tickets digitally in the app. I understand this one might be a little bit harder to implement due to legal concerns, the main one being underage people buying tickets. However, this could be overcome by implementing ID verification. For example, users could scan their ID card and take a picture of their face.
These are the features I would like to see added. I have worked in app development for years, so I know adding these is possible. However, if the development team reads this, I would like to hear their reasoning as to why these features would not be added.

Can’t check tickets
It has two stars because I can get it to work. The problem is that it doesn’t work anymore with the newer phones. It makes me put the ticket to close to my camera so it’s out of focus my old phone still works so I just use the app there. Please update your app so I can check tickets from a spot my camera can focus

Great app
Not sure why everyone else has such an issue with the Iowa lottery app, I haven’t had any problems since I downloaded the app a year ago! Works great the only thing I wish it had on the app was everything that is on the website for example, my free plays every month! :) other than that love the app!

Ticket scan not working
We haven’t played for a few months, picked up some scratch offs and played power ball a couple weeks ago, ticket scan isn’t working. Read app reviews, thought I’d give it another try, nope, still nothing! Can this get fixed soon??
Terrible app
This app USED to work well. You could scan tickets with ease and go about business. Now, you can barely do anything! Why does the scanner not work?! Everything looks blurry when you try to scan the ticket. I have an iPhone 14 Pro Max, so that’s not the problem. As others have said, the e-slip option is a joke too. The only thing this app does right is tell you what games are available and being able to see the drawing numbers.

Doesn’t work
I saw a lot of reviews about how this worked on and off with scanning tickets. I thought I would give it a try anyway and I haven’t been able to scan a single ticket since it Downloaded. I actually thought I was doing something wrong because the directions are pretty vague but no, it just wouldn't scan. I finally got it to scan, and then nothing. It would not produce any results. That’s what I get for ignoring how the bad reviews outweighed the good reviews by a long shot.

Doesn't work with iPhone 14
The ticket checker does not zoom so you can not scan tickets. Worthless...
It’s a 5 start for me
I’m not sure why there’s so many low star ratings. I find it to be an excellent app. Not only can I scan my scratch offs to double check if they are winners or not and there’s been a few times I have overlooked something and actually had a winner. But I can sync it with other reward apps like Kwik Star and each month Iowa lottery sends out a newsletter there’s a free $2 lottery ticket that I can redeem at Kwik Star. And my none winning scratch offs I can enter for another chance to win. On top of pop up games throughout each month. So this app definitely gets 5 stars from me. 🤩
