### 1/5 — not a free app

*2025-01-07*

wasn’t able to even identify without a subscription.

**Developer response:** Hi! Thanks for your feedback. I just wanted to share that I’m an indie developer, and this app is built and maintained with a lot of personal time and effort. Unfortunately, the identification feature isn’t free for us — it actually costs money every time it’s used. That’s why a subscription is necessary, though we work hard to keep the prices as low as possible so more people can use it.

Negative reviews like this really hurt our visibility and ability to grow, even when we’re doing our best. I hope you can understand and consider updating your feedback if you see the value. Thank you!

### 1/5 — First coin

*2024-12-20*

My coin is in great shape. No words are faded. It’s 1801 John Adam’s $1 and I tried several times and it kept finding all this other stuff. Pictures were clear. Waste of my $35 to buy this app.

This has been going on for months now when I attempted to contact them in the very beginning I never got a response I am done worrying about this  I will use any means possible and take any action necessary to get this resolved. $34.99 I’m being charged for when my statement clearly shows I canceled within to days of my using the app.
