Can’t recognize spit

I gave it 3 chances to recognize a Susan B Anthony Dollar. By its shape alone it should have been a piece of cake.

No, it’s not a Native American dollar
No, it’s not a walking liberty dollar
No, it’s absolutely not a Kennedy half dollar.

I wish there was a real trash can where I could throw this garbage app. Just deleting it is insufficient.

Response from developer

Hi, Thanks for giving the app a try and for sharing your feedback. A Susan B. Anthony Dollar should normally be recognized correctly, so the result you experienced is definitely not what we aim for. Image recognition can sometimes be affected by lighting, angle, or image clarity, which may lead to incorrect matches such as Native American Dollar, Walking Liberty Half Dollar, or Kennedy Half Dollar. We are continuously improving the recognition model to reduce these cases and make identification more reliable. If you’re open to giving it another try, taking the photo on a plain background with good lighting usually helps improve accuracy. If you still have the photo, feel free to send it to younesdotdev@gmail.com so we can investigate and improve the recognition for this coin in future updates. Your feedback genuinely helps us make the app better.

Too many bugs

Takes a long time to connect to the servers. Misidentifies coins on a regular basis. Out of the first 7 coins I tried, 6 were misidentified by year and/or denominations.

Response from developer

Hi NapaMuse, sorry about that. I appreciate the report. Please update to the latest version, we’ve improved matching and connection stability, and retest. If it still fails, send 2–3 photos and your phone model/OS to younesdotdev@gmail.com so I can fix those exact coins. Thanks, Younes

Scam/Worst coin app in the store

This is THE worst coin app in the store, and with so much garbage in the App Store already, that’s not an achievement you want. It has never worked…the “update” just now also didn’t make it work. It only ever says it is “trying” to connect to servers, which I assume since it serves no actual purpose, is code for “steal your personal data”. As an FYI I do not grant permission for even one little bit of my personal data to be captured, retained, shared or sold. You should be ashamed of this app. Please delete any data associated with my downloading this app, please and thank you. Apple, you should be ashamed too. AWFUL app.

Hi specialappssk, sorry for the bad experience. The app doesn’t collect or sell any personal data, identification runs securely on servers only to process images. The connection issue you faced has been fixed in the latest version, which now works smoothly. I hope you’ll give it another try and see the difference. – Younes

Not worth it

Continuously saying Error due to high demand. Every day, every time. Try another app

Response from developer

Hi Liz4Run, sorry for the trouble. That error came from a temporary server overload, which has since been fully fixed. The app now connects instantly and identifies coins much faster. I’d appreciate if you could give it another try. – Younes

This app doesn’t work

I have tried numerous times on different days and at different times of day to have this app identify a coin. Every single time it says that. There is an error and that the servers are busy.

Response from developer

Hi An ekename, the server issues you faced have been resolved in the latest update. The app now connects reliably and identifies coins quickly. Please give it another try. – Younes

Constant Server issues

Error
We are experiencing high demand on our servers at the moment. Please try again in a few minutes.
Thank you for your patience.
Try Again

Hi JJRayRayj, the server overloads have been fixed in the latest update. The app now connects quickly and identifies coins reliably. Thanks for your patience. – Younes

Frustrating

Frustrating for a single reason: once you have the coin in your collection, you never get to see the details you receive when you first scan the coin (which works well) Otherwise, it works well.

Response from developer

Hi mypaperstuff, that feature has actually been added in a recent update, you can now view full details for coins in your collection anytime. Please update and give it another try. – Younes

Server never available

I’ve tried to identify coins at various times during the day and evening. The server is always busy, which makes this app rather useless!

Response from developer

Hi, the server issues from back then have been fully fixed. The app now connects quickly and reliably, so you can identify coins anytime. Younes

Does not work.

Has not identified any coin I have.

Bad start

I haven’t been able to use this app because every time I have tried it keeps giving me this message: Error
We are experiencing high demand on our servers at the moment. Please try again in a few minutes. Thank you for your patience.
Try Again

It is obvious that either your servers lack the capacity or this app doesn’t work.

I have high expectations for this app, but so far, not impressed at all.

Sounds Good

Plain and simple the server is always too busy. So what is this app doing meanwhile? ☹️👎

Response from developer

Hi, the server overload issues have been fixed in the latest update. The app now connects reliably and identifies coins without delays. Younes

Sadly no

Got this yesterday and immediately tried it out on a non coin. Surprisingly, it identified it correctly.
Tried it out today on a nickel. First kept getting error messages. Tried back later and it identified it as a quarter. Tried again it identified it as a dollar.
Sadly, it’s a no. One star.

Response from developer

Hi Soitsme, sorry for the errors you experienced. Recognition accuracy and server reliability have been greatly improved in the latest update. I’d appreciate it if you could give it another try and consider updating your review. Younes

Won’t Even Connect to the Servers

I downloaded this app a couple of days ago thinking it could be fun and useful. It has been nothing but a disappointment as I cannot even get it to work.
The app loads and I can either take a photo of a coin or upload one from my camera roll.
As it tries to identify the coin, I get an error stating, “ we are experiencing high demand on our servers at the moment. please try again in a few minutes. Thank you for your patience.”
I have tried dozens of times and this is all I get.
The program is worthless to me so far.

Amazing app you need this if you’re a queen enthusiasm.

Very accurate and knowledgeable really amazing to have this ability to find out if you’re holding a valuable coin or not it’s a great app I love it.

Doesn’t work - Servers always busy error

Glad I didn’t pay for this app. It doesn’t work. I always get a servers are busy error - try again later. I’ve already deleted the app since it doesn’t work.

Unfortunately can’t give this app no stars which is what it deserves so am giving it a mandatory one star as there is no way to access the identify button because there are two big buttons (one-telegram, two-Facebook) in the way. Will have to do better than this.

Not exactly

App is nicely designed and easy to use however, the details are not exact. Also, after a couple of tries the app comes back with an error, saying the server is busy. Tried a few times afterwards and same error message. Good app but need some work in my opinion.

Response from developer

Hi firemanstew, thanks for the feedback. Server errors have been fixed, and recognition accuracy has improved in recent updates. The app should now identify coins more reliably. Younes

Wrong info

Just to try it out, I had it to analyze a Kennedy Half Dollar coin. I tried 3 times. It always identified it as an Eisenhower Dollar coin. Just doesn’t seem to function well. I will try a few other coins to see if it does any better.

Response from developer

Hi MHughes123, sorry for the confusion. Recent updates have greatly improved coin recognition, including U.S. coins. Please update and try scanning your Kennedy Half Dollar again—it should now identify correctly. Younes

Does not identify correctly

I tried to identify a coin I knew was 20 cents from Mexico. It identified it as a 1 cent coin from El Salvador. App not working. Junk.

Response from developer

Hi Zeus Master player, sorry for the misidentification. Recent updates have improved recognition accuracy for coins worldwide. Please update and try again—it should identify your coins correctly now. Younes
