### 4/5 — Pl

*2024-12-24, version 2.8.4*

Brill

### 1/5 — 3 minutes of adds and clicks for one scan is absurd.

*2024-03-15, version 2.8.0*

Way too many adds.

### 1/5 — Difficult to scan bar codes

*2024-02-16, version 2.7.6*

Difficult to scan bar codes

### 2/5 — Mr Chris Cahill

*2023-08-08, version 2.7.1*

I know where I can buy the product I scanned. If I didn’t already have it I couldn’t scan it.
What I needed to know is details about the product such as, “Best before”, or, “Used by”, date. This scanner is next to useless.

### 1/5 — Bar code scanner

*2023-08-02, version 2.7.1*

I attempted to scan a a bar code that was attached to a figure of a German Shepard that my son brought back from his trip to Japan.  Figure is (I estimate it’s size) roughly 2.25” long by 1.5” tall.  Nothing was identified nor actuated while trying to use scan.  The bar code was just that a linear bar-code not one of the square shaped QR types.  Maybe that is the limitations of this scanner.  If someone knows of a typical bar code scanner I would like to hear about it!

### 1/5 — Ad on each scan… terrible

*2024-07-24, version 2.8.4*

Ad on each scan… terrible

### 1/5 — Worse than malware

*2024-06-24, version 2.8.4*

Horrible app. Horrible company. I’ve never left a poor app review in my LIFE till now. 

First— every time you touch a button an ad pops up. Usually a video ad. THEN when you close it…. You get a second one. 😂 you cannot execute a single tap or perform an action on ANYTHING without seeing 2-6 ads. 

Buttons within the app itself just link you to the App Store to download more of their apps. WITHOUT telling you it’s triggering an external call to open the App Store. 

Finally… they urge you to purchase to unlock content. I’m pretty sure if you need to pay to unlock features you’re supposed to devote that in the App Store. 

Just a scammy, gross, dirty company who clearly cannot make money honestly. Stay away from all of their apps.

### 1/5 — X

*2024-05-25, version 2.8.3*

No idea how to use this.

### 1/5 — Bad App

### 5/5 — Simons Nani

Awesome App

### 5/5 — Clean!

*2024-12-15, version 2.8.4*

Quick, neat installation, no clutter anywhere.

### 5/5 — Fast with all barcodes

*2024-10-24, version 2.8.4*

This app is fast at reading codes. This app supports some very obscure barcode types and lets you see the data before acting on it. Drawbacks are lack of support for some medical codes and NaviLense. It would be nice if it could read screenshots easier.

### 5/5 — Mainstays rechargeable fan

*2024-07-12*

I purchased this 8” clip or desk top fan for my bedroom as I sleep hot. It’s perfect. On low you can hardly hear it and the air flow is just right. Depending on how long you have it on, 2, 4 or 8 hours you may need to charge it daily. So far I am very happy with this great little fan.

### 5/5 — New customer

*2024-01-30, version 2.7.6*

The best customer service I’ve ever had. Everyone was so polite. Everyone knew their job so well I appreciate everyone that helped me on my appointment and made my experience so easy my best to all of them. Thank you Lina miller.

### 5/5 — Cancel

*2024-01-23, version 2.7.5*

Please cancel
