### 4/5 — ?

*2026-07-19, version 3.3.0*

is this ai?

### 4/5 — Amazing but one major problem

*2026-06-20, version 3.3.0*

I got this and I read the reviews. If looked amazing but then I got it. I hate how you only have THREE a day when you can’t afford to pay. I have lots of crystals and it takes ages this must be fixed for people

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2026-06-05, version 3.2.24*

I’m very disappointed to learn that the identification on loads of crystals is incorrect. I know what I have bought and just wanted to store the photo’s in one place but am unable to get the app to get the crystal right on so many. Would be better if you could import your own details to ensure they are correct. I won’t be renewing my subscription and will be cancelling straight away. Such a shame!

### 4/5 — Great backup

*2026-04-28*

I have used this app for almost a full year. I did have a problem and for some reason, my own fault I used two different email addresses, so I was only getting the use of three photos to identify the crystal that I had. The app support people contacted me in a very timely and professional manner, and got the situation fixed right away and now I’m back in business. Thank you for all of your help support.

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your experience, we’re really sorry for the frustration this caused. Your existing subscription should include unlimited crystal identifications, and you should never need to purchase a second subscription. This sounds like a restore or account issue rather than anything intentional. Please contact us at info@crystalyzeguide.com so we can check your subscription and fix this for you right away. We’re always happy to help make sure you receive everything you’ve already paid for. 💜💎

### 3/5 — Great app

*2026-03-05*

But most things you do have to spend money on the app to get more things you only get three pictures to take

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. The free version currently includes 3 crystal identifications per day, so you can try the feature without a subscription. The free version also includes the crystal library, Own/Favourites/Wishlist, the moon phase calendar, and personal notes. The subscription simply unlocks unlimited identifications and additional features to help support continued development of the app. We appreciate you giving it a try! 💎✨

### 3/5 — Payant

*2026-02-23*

Si tu n’as pas le premium,
Tu ne peux pas faire beaucoup de choses. Il faut payer ( pas obligatoirement )et ça c’est dommage ça sans payer tu n’accèdes à pas beaucoup de choses mais sinon les infos données sur les pierres sont très bien et l’identification marche bien.

**Developer response:** Nous sommes heureux que vous appréciez les informations sur les pierres ainsi que l’identification. La version gratuite inclut déjà la bibliothèque des cristaux, la liste des pierres (possédées, favorites et souhaitées), le calendrier des phases de lune et les notes personnelles.

L’abonnement permet simplement d’ajouter des fonctionnalités supplémentaires comme les identifications illimitées et nous aide à continuer d’améliorer l’application. Merci encore pour votre avis ! 💎✨

### 3/5 — Free version is a library

*2026-02-16, version 3.2.18*

Free version only allows 3 “identifications” even if it is not able to identify stones/gems it still uses up one of the 3. So if you’re looking for an app that you can use for free to identify stones this is NOT the one. If you’re looking for an app that has a library of previously identified stones it’s ok but not for stones you have that you are unsure of

### 2/5 — Welp

*2026-01-27*

It works but you have to pay to save em

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. 💜 Saving and managing your crystal collection is part of the premium features, which helps support ongoing updates and development of the app. We understand this may not work for everyone, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. 💎✨

### 3/5 — Not FREE

*2026-01-16, version 3.2.11*

Works but only gives you a free trial then you have to buy it

### 2/5 — Me decepcionou

*2025-11-19*

O aplicativo é legal, identifica facilmente os cristais pelas fotos, muito rico de informações, contém calendário lunar e é bem intuitivo. Porém, enquanto eu tinha a versão paga, consegui tirar as fotos e armazenar todos os meus cristais. Quando voltei para a opção gratuita a minha coleção de cristais simplesmente sumiu do app, fiquei decepcionada.

**Developer response:** Muito obrigado por compartilhar sua experiência, e sinto muito pela decepção que isso causou. 💜
Ao mudar da versão premium para a versão gratuita, certos recursos como salvar e visualizar sua coleção de cristais fazem parte do plano premium, por isso essas entradas podem não aparecer mais na versão gratuita.

Mas pode ficar tranquilo(a): seus dados não foram apagados. Eles estão armazenados com segurança e aparecerão novamente caso decida reativar sua assinatura. Sabemos o quanto sua coleção é importante, e seu feedback nos ajuda a tornar essas transições mais claras para todos os usuários.

Agradecemos por dedicar um tempo para escrever uma avaliação tão detalhada. Isso significa muito para nós e esperamos continuar aprimorando sua experiência com o Crystalyze. 💎✨

### 3/5 — Need more data

*2025-11-16, version 3.2.6*

I am a paying customer and am VERY upset with the amount of data and information in the app,

### 4/5 — Cool

*2025-11-03, version 3.2.1*

Love the app. Wish it had a few more crystals on it tho. And sometimes it glitches out. Other than that thank you for making this app

### 4/5 — So far in love

*2025-09-12, version 3.1.9*

With the free version without subscription

### 1/5 — stupid

*2026-07-24, version 3.3.0*

have to pay for everything

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2026-05-29, version 3.2.24*

I’ve just tried this app as I wanted some of my unknown crystals identified. I chose 13 that I definitely do know and it got 6 completely wrong! I’ve deleted it as it cannot be trusted to correctly identify crystals/minerals.

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2026-05-12, version 3.2.24*

Identifying crystals is not correct. I get more accurate results from Google.

### 1/5 — Does NOT Correctly Identify Most Crystals

*2026-04-18*

I wanted to love this app, but most times I try to use it - it can’t identify correctly the stones I show it which is a real bummer. In a cost of living crisis we are in, I won’t invest money in an app that gets most crystals guesses wrong.

**Developer response:** Thank you for giving the app a try and for sharing your honest feedback 💜 Crystal identification can be challenging. Many stones look very similar, and lighting, angles, or polished vs. raw pieces can affect results. We’re continually improving accuracy and expanding the crystal database with every update. We truly appreciate your feedback and understand wanting confidence before investing. 💎

### 1/5 — Don’t bother - This is not a free app

*2026-04-08*

If you’re not gonna pay, you only get 3 scans for free after that you need to pay. I really wish apps would stop saying they’re free when you can’t do bigger all before you have to pay. I was actually thinking of keeping it the app but I couldn’t mess around with it enough to know if it was any good for me. Uninstalled after 5mins MAX!

**Developer response:** Thank you for sharing your feedback 💜 The free version includes 3 crystal identifications per day, along with full access to the crystal library, collection folders (Own, Favorites, Wishlist), and the moon phase calendar. The subscription simply unlocks unlimited scans and premium features. We appreciate you giving the app a try and will keep working to make the value clearer for new users. 💎✨

### 1/5 — Database is lacking

*2026-04-05, version 3.2.23*

I tried this app to see if it would correctly identify two crystals - bloodstone and Iolite. I made sure the was focused and well lit and It identified them both as obsidian but at the same time it noted that they were not in their database. 

Unfortunately there are better apps out there.

### 1/5 — Incorrect

*2026-03-23*

This app couldn’t identify my crystals correctly

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry the identifier didn’t recognize your crystals correctly. Results can vary depending on lighting, background, and how clearly the stone is captured. We’re continuously improving accuracy and expanding the database. We appreciate you giving the app a try.  💜✨

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2025-10-16, version 3.2.0*

I was concerned that the app would identify a stone as three different types of crystal. Thought maybe the crystal was fake. So I had it identify a black ceramic chime candle holder and it told me it was obsidian. 😳😢😡

### 1/5 — Only 3 photos

*2025-09-13, version 3.1.9*

While it identified my three stones correctly, it only allows you to submit 3 stones. After 3 stones you need to pay for a subscription or the app is completely useless.

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-09-05, version 3.1.9*

It misidentified my Jasper, and it’s not free. You get 3 scans. Two of which were wrong.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-20, version 3.3.0*

This is a really great app which allows me to identify diff stones which helps me when I’m making jewellery. It allows me to take pictures and then uses the picture to identify the stone. I can then add it to my collection and write any notes about the stone that I need to. Love using this app and would highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in crystals and stones.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-06-17, version 3.3.0*

Very useful for spiritual development.

### 5/5 — Help please

*2026-02-10, version 3.2.17*

I factory reseted my phone, and then reinstalled the app, but it’s not letting me restore purchases (membership subscription) it says error 10 a network error has occurred.

### 5/5 — Crystalize i love it

*2026-01-23, version 3.2.14*

This app really helped identify me crystal thank you alot DEV

### 5/5 — Fast and accurate

*2026-01-04, version 3.2.9*

I had the app identify my crystal collection and it was right on all of them. Also I was really wowed that when I had a combination of crystals in a bracelet it named them all at one go. This is going to really help me keep my collection organized.

### 5/5 — Love this app! Please add more crystals!!!

*2025-10-12*

This app is literally everything im looking for, I before was taking pics of every crystal, putting it my notes, and writing the properties. This is SO MUCH BETTER. I love how you can add a wishlist and favorites as well, and add your own photo to the crystals in your collection! This app is everything I’ve been looking for. The only thing I would love is for more crystals to be added to the database, but I just read you guys are working on that and I can’t wait!!!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your amazing message! 💜 We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that Crystalyze has made your crystal journey easier and more enjoyable. It means so much to know the app is helping you stay organized and inspired.

We also love that you’re using features like the wishlist, favorites, and custom photos. Those were designed exactly for collectors like you! And yes you’re right, we’re actively working on expanding the crystal database with new entries in upcoming updates, so you’ll soon see even more additions to explore.

Your enthusiasm and support truly keep us motivated, thank you for being part of the Crystalyze community! 🌙💜

### 5/5 — Is the most beautiful application in this world

*2025-09-18, version 3.1.9*

Guys, if one day you delete this application, I’m going to die. Never ever do that

### 5/5 — Everything very nice

*2025-09-15, version 3.1.9*

But one thing - could you add Ukrainian language? I see there is Russian in description, but I also cant use it in settings. :(

### 5/5 — Love This App!

*2025-08-25*

After just a few minutes of playing with this I immediately signed up for the premium version. This has everything I was looking for and now that I have my crystals loaded I can scroll through to see them all in one database. There are so many filters to find which crystals work for different things. And the identifier is really good - much better than just using google lense. I would say it was about 80% correct when I checked the ones in already knew. It’s easy to add crystals they don’t have yet and enter the information yourself from website searches. Looking forward to seeing more get added. Great job on this app!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your amazing review! 💜 We’re thrilled to hear you jumped right into Premium and that the app has everything you were looking for. It’s wonderful to know that being able to add your crystals, scroll through them in one place, and use all the filters is making your crystal journey smoother. ✨

We’re also glad to hear you’re enjoying the identifier. It’s still in beta, but feedback like yours helps us keep improving its accuracy. We’re continuing to research and add more crystals in upcoming updates, and we can’t wait to share them with you. Thank you for your support and for being part of the community! 🙏

### 5/5 — What i think of this app so far,

*2025-08-15*

There is many crystal and their properties and the moon faces which i love the only think i kind of dont like is how i only get 3 times to figure out what crystal it is, im not able to buy premium bc of other reasons but other than that is an okay app (edit i now looked more into it and i actually like this! Sure there isnt a lot of crystal but ive heard that u or ur team is working on getting more on the app! I can mangae with only three times a day, but i would rlly like more crystals :])

**Developer response:** Thank you for your thoughtful review! 💜 We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the app, the moon phases, and the crystal info. We understand the limit of three free identifications can feel restrictive, and your feedback helps us find the right balance between free and paid features. You’re absolutely right, we’re actively working on adding more crystals to the database so you can expect the library to keep growing. We’re so grateful for your support and patience as we continue to improve! 💎✨
