### 1/5 — Unsupported app

*2022-12-09, version 3.4.7*

I have emailed developers twice now that app crashes when trying to view card. No replies. Went to their website. Their website is no more. They made a great app. Got people to pay for it and abandoned the app totally.

Updated: Would always crash when app was opened due to the Touch ID was ON.  Touch ID is not on anymore iPhones. I had mine ON and it made app crash constantly.  I deleted app knowing I had it backed up to cloud. Reinstalled app. Set password and left Touch ID OFF. So far app works right now. I have not dug to far into app but it opens now and I can see all my cards. 

Hope this helps to those that paid for the app and now the app support is no longer.

### 1/5 — No Support

*2022-01-25, version 3.4.7*

I have used this app for many years and it has worked well. Recently I try to add a facial recognition password. I’m using an iPhone 11 and it only has facial recognition it does not have a fingerprint ID. The app would only allow a fingerprint ID so I thought that would automatically work as a facial recognition. Once I did that the app no longer works. Touching the icon opens the app and immediately it shuts down. All my data is lost. There is no way to contact the developer and the website is not functional. I suggest you do not buy this app or use it.

### 4/5 — Great way to store cards

*2022-01-06, version 3.4.7*

I’ve been using Card Mare for several years.   It’s not perfect, but I love it.  
It’s great way to keep your cards handy.   Due to the lack of merchants keeping up with technology I haven’t been able to stop carrying a wallet, but I’m close.  Highly recommend

### 2/5 — Can’t add credit card

*2021-06-01, version 3.4.7*

Taking a picture of the front of the card, the only option is to auto-scan it. Even though I can position the camera to get four green bars around the card image, a picture is not taken. For the back of the card though, I have the option to manually take the picture. Because I can’t get a picture of the front of the card, I can’t save it. This used to work in the past.

### 3/5 — It’s Working Again!

*2021-05-19, version 3.4.7*

They finally updated the app to work with the newest iOS, which is wonderful!! I do wish they’d add a few more options in sorting and storing the info, though, and bring back facial recognition. Keep making positive improvements and I’ll be able to increase my rating.

### 4/5 — Fixed the glitch

*2021-04-05, version 3.4.7*

This app was broken for my iPhone w/ iOS 14 for several months. Now working again. Thank you to the developer for fixing it. It is still the most useful app available for storing cards like drivers license, passport, insurance etc.

### 3/5 — Great app but needs improvement

*2021-03-25, version 3.4.7*

I love having an inventory of all my cards in one app. It seems secure, I’ve never had a problem with that. But, the scanning operation simply does not work. And, there’s not an option to just take a picture of the card. If they can fix the scan, it will be the best in class.

### 3/5 — Fixed somewhat

*2021-03-13, version 3.4.7*

It now doesn’t crash when you tap on a card. The ability to sort the cards in the order I would like the to be displayed is now gone. Keep working on it and I’ll keep reviewing it and increasing the ratings.

### 4/5 — Need Face ID option.

*2021-02-26, version 3.4.7*

I’ve loved this app for 5 year or more.  Recently, I upgraded to an iPhone 12 and there is no face -id option.  When I turn on touch-id the app crashes on launch, and I have to delete it and reinstall.

### 3/5 — 1 thing fixed

*2021-02-22, version 3.4.7*

Finally, after 6 weeks, tapping card crash is fixed. Now there is faceid crash and dark mode text visibility issue are left to be fixed. Faceid would be the most critical. Developper still not respond to any contact and app support links are broken. Lets hope fixes comes at once.
