### 1/5 — Functional but annoying

*2024-12-24, version 3.6.6*

There is no way to turn off the beep every time you scan something. Want to listen to music to make hours of monotonous inventory bearable… nope BinScan will blow your eardrums out with beeps and after each beep you have to re start the music manually. No settings to turn off sounds. So so annoying

### 1/5 — Do better

*2024-05-02, version 3.6.6*

Honestly embarrassing my company pays to use this app. I could code a better app and all I know about coding is from MySpace. 
The glitches are unreal and it’s unbelievably hard to erase something from your system or even edit it for that matter

### 5/5 — Excellent, Easy to Understand App

*2021-08-10, version 3.0.0*

BinScan offers bar owners, restaurants, hotels, and more the easiest way to manage their drinks inventory. I love how simple the visual slider is and reviewing all of my scans is effortless too.

The UX is simple, modern, and effortless to understand. Great job to the team who built it! I'll be recommending this app to any friends of mine who have a restaurant or bar.
