### 3/5 — Meme mes yeux font mieux que ça

*2025-03-11, version 5.0.9*

Mes yeux et mon cerveau répondent mieux que cette application très limitée et ne pouvant reconnaître que les emballages et les formes.
Il y a mieux sur l'AppStore.
Merci au développeur d'avoir essayé malgré tout.

### 2/5 — Not accurate at all

*2024-10-31, version 5.0.9*

Hasn’t been very helpful at all.. unfortunately I wouldn’t recommend.

### 1/5 — What a HORRIBLE CRAPPY APP!!!

*2024-04-12, version 5.0.9*

This is the MOST INACCURATE APP IN THE ENITRE WORLD.I had a pair of Gucci shoes and I even put the gucci image “DIRECTLY INTO THE CAMERA” and low and behold it Said Aid-Jordan.Next it said Puma then Adidas.At that point I had trash this garbage.

### 2/5 — Cant find faces

*2024-04-06, version 5.0.9*

Wouldn’t let me upload a facial image to do a reverse image search. It zoomed in so far on the photo that all it showed was the person’s nose, and then the results came back as “black eyeglasses.“

### 1/5 — You gotta be kidding me!!!

*2024-01-29, version 5.0.9*

I’ve only searched a couple of things & it’s already a JOKE!! Georgia Pull over Jacket and it comes up with a Harley Davidson Jacket. Then a Rawlings item and it comes back Levi Jeans?? Google Search may miss its mark 3/4 outta 10 times but at least they get the easy stuff…

### 1/5 — Could not identify a plant

*2024-01-21, version 5.0.9*

I took a picture of an aloe vera plant. The app returned this description: ‘green leaf cactus plant in pot.’ I tried again. This time it came up with ‘green leaf plant in pot.’ Instead of helping me find out more about the plant, the app couldn’t even tell me what I already knew.

### 2/5 — Crash

*2023-12-28, version 5.0.9*

Crash continui ,era un ottima app. Gli ultimi aggiornamenti l hanno peggiorata.
Da sistemare

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-10-30, version 5.0.9*

Is this a joke? Lol you can’t even tell the names of certain things. I showed a pic and it tells me it’s a green leaf plant with green leaves 💀🤦‍♂️this makes google lens better even it is still not accurate

### 1/5 — 全く使えない。

*2023-09-07, version 5.0.9*

試しにサッカー選手の「アーリング・ハーランド」の写真で試したら「GALAXY note tab3」とか言われてこのアプリの使えなさが一瞬でわかりました。

### 1/5 — Antiques

*2023-07-25, version 5.0.9*

This is garbage for identifying any antiques

### 1/5 — ?

*2023-06-30, version 5.0.9*

It seems my bone handled nail file is a green and white baseball bat. 🤪

### 1/5 — ?

*2023-06-29, version 5.0.9*

I thought i could use to locate an outfit. Nvm then

### 1/5 — DOES NOT WORK

*2023-06-27, version 5.0.9*

I took a pic of a black tool box and it claimed it as a red and black baseball bat. Useless. If I could rate it negative stars I would.

### 1/5 — what??

*2023-06-13, version 5.0.9*

i was looking for these shorts i saw in a girls video, brown shorts, two times i tried to look for it and it recognized the color as white?? and then.. pink???

### 1/5 — No Go

*2023-05-21, version 5.0.9*

I took a photo of a keychain - aluminum tube that unscrews to hold meds or other small items - even gave it the description & it said it was Harbor Freight Tools
Then I took photo of a silver ballpoint pen with a silver & green pineapple finial - again gave the description & it led me to a cartoon video that I didn’t bother to watch. 
Complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Don't Bother, What A Waste

*2023-05-19, version 5.0.9*

I just downloaded and almost immediately deleted this app. The first review I read echoed my experience - result that had *nothing* to do with my search. I have a Buddy Guy album with a cover that I can't find anywhere - my search result for the image (Guy himself, on guitar) yielded: "The Last Of Us PS4 Game Case" … ???

I'm sure there must be other apps that actually deliver, seems like the creators spent most of their budget on advertising and Google searches.

Don't waste your time.

### 1/5 — Needs a lot of work at!!

*2023-02-25, version 5.0.9*

This app has been wrong 100% of the time for me, maybe it works for somebody else but it’s not for me thank you

### 1/5 — Not worth downloading

*2023-02-23, version 5.0.9*

This app is horrible. With the competition of similar apps (such as instagram/Pinterest, reverse image) this app won’t do any better than it is now-which isn’t good anyway.

### 1/5 — great idea, worst execution

*2023-02-17, version 5.0.9*

literally just subjected me to advertised websites which didn’t have any of what i was trying to find

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Cartoonish parodies without the humour

*2026-06-29, version 5.0.9*

I tried five or six everyday, ordinary items. I  aimed it at a black tower fan and it said it was an oil pump. At a Yeti water bottle and it said was some kind of sign. At an ancient 1662 Book of Common Prayer and it said a leather bag at a HomePod, and it accurately said “a speaker.”  I do hope it improves. I’ll keep the app and try it again in a couple of years—if it’s still around

### 1/5 — Don’t expect much

*2026-03-27, version 5.0.9*

The image recognition is weak, though the Discover feed is cool when it works. The app will sometimes load your data and sometimes not, depending on its mood. 
Want to like, bookmark or comment on something? Give it at least 10 tries.
It’s very likely that this app will lose your data at some point.

### 1/5 — Review

*2025-09-28, version 5.0.9*

Absolutely worthless, tried to identify 4 different objects, all relatively common. App did not even come close to being able to identify them. Again, worthless. Google is much better.

### 1/5 — Unusual permissions

*2025-07-19, version 5.0.9*

The app asked to track my location even when not using the app, and the search results were too limited to be useful

### 1/5 — Found nothing

*2025-05-29, version 5.0.9*

Lousy

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-05-25, version 5.0.9*

Just really awful

### 1/5 — Read this

*2025-04-23, version 5.0.9*

I hate this app don’t even try to download this it’s a scam it doesn’t work at all i test it on my vans cap but the app always said that it’s a Chicago bulls but it’s not and I try it on other things and it’s not saying the true name and it’s always wrong not always but all wrong I regret downloading this such and idiot made this stupid app I’m sorry but I’m just telling the truth please make this app better improve it because it’s extremely worst thank u for reading my review on this app I hope it help in don’t download this try other apps not this thank u for understanding

### 1/5 — Not even close to working junk

*2024-11-25, version 5.0.9*

Took photo of a FIXED wall sconce fixture and app called it a HANGING pendant lamp? Not even close.

### 1/5 — Are you kidding me??

*2024-10-19, version 5.0.9*

This app used to be, I repeat, USED TO BE pretty decent, and pretty accurate I might admit. But something went wrong somewhere because, well let me explain because this beats anything I have ever seen in my whole life and I am not a spring chicken.
I thought I would give another chance to see if they improved any. Well, that answer’ll be a straight up great big NO, not just a no but a HECK NO!!! no improvement whatsoever, in fact, I believe they’re getting worse if that’s at all possible.
I asked them to identify a stapler of all things, a STAPLER!!  A freakin’ stapler, I certainly wish I could send pics on these reviews because in their infinite wisdom or they’re blind eye so to speak, they identified the stapler as a, and I quote “a metal storage cabinet.“
Can you believe that??! A metal storage cabinet out of a freaking stapler… un-freakin’-believable!!

### 1/5 — Downloaded to my iPhone expecting to figure out an item nobody knows

*2024-06-02, version 5.0.9*

Downloaded to my iPhone expecting to figure out an item no body knows what it is. Nothing even close. Tried is two much simple items and nothing. Tried Google lens and bang 2 out of 3 perfect matches. Already deleted the app from my iPhone.

### 5/5 — So cool!

*2024-07-21, version 5.0.9*

I wanted to search for an umbrella and didn’t know if there was an app to tell me what kind it is. This app is the perfect one! It is super hilarious.

### 5/5 — Amazing!!!!!

*2019-08-29, version 5.0.8*

I’m in shock! This is amazing!!! Wow 😲

### 5/5 — Very first version was great- Now its Pure Garbage!

*2019-04-07, version 5.0.7*

The very first versions of this app worked great and were very Accurate. Now its garbage and not worth using.

The app can no longer even get the simplest of objects correct even when the object has its name and function printed on it.

The object recognition engine seems to have gotten a lobotomy
since its first versions and miss-identifies the type of object most of the time now. Text recognition seems to be completely missing or so messed up that it is now nonfunctional.

The old version recognized any text on the object and used that info along with its object recognition and was able to obtain very accurate descriptions of the object including brand names and accurate function along with pertinent search link suggestions for similar objects. 
The current version of this app no longer functions with any semblance of accuracy or repeatability. Pure junk now!

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2019-03-14, version 5.0.5*

This app is very useful for finding things that you want but don’t know the name of. It’s also fun to try and stump it. I don’t know why it has a bad rating...

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2019-02-09, version 5.0.5*

I work in machine learning and I just started searching for an app for object recognition and stumbled across this.

FANTASTIC! This app works so well! Congrats on a great app! 

This should be on everyone’s phone.

### 5/5 — Gostei

*2018-07-21, version 5.0.2.1*

Gente é muito legal esse app! Gostei!!!

### 5/5 — Love love💗💗

*2018-07-20, version 5.0.2.1*

I love this app! Seriously. When I ask someone “oh can I take a pic of your shoes”.. ..  so I snap em in CamFind and then I know exactly what brand and where they got them and how much they paid. 
Love Love it! 💗💗

### 5/5 — Jeseef

*2018-07-07, version 5.0.0*

This app amazed me so many time it’s a wonderful app..... looks like as if it utilizes artificial intelligence (AI)....let me share an experience ... once I didn’t know the English word of an object in my daughters textbook ( kindergarten) I used camfind and boom 😀😃 
It is a tool that comes in handy in needy situations Abd thrilled to see an update

### 5/5 — Nice

*2018-06-28, version 4.1.3*

Perfect. 70-80% of right answers for me. Really nice work. Better then others apps. 
It correctly recognize some “hard” objects for AI like a porcelain dolls and more.

### 5/5 — An amazing app ever created!

*2018-06-13, version 4.1.3*

Versatile tool!
