I always have a hard time determining if the sneaker I want is legit or not. It’s great to see that there are apps like this to help a noob sneakerhead, like me, to save time and potential headaches. ### 5/5 — Fantastic app *2020-10-27, version 2.1.6* I downloaded the app a few months ago, it works better than any similar app. I am now a moderator and can say that the team behind this app is great, always working to improve it and listening to community feedback. The other moderators are very knowledgeable and professional so you can trust their opinions. Very functional and I still personally use it. ### 5/5 — Dybe review *2020-07-09, version 2.1* This app is very helpful when it comes to purchasing something online. It can help you identify any flaws with any product that you are purchasing and also give you feedback on the authenticity of the product. It’s a great tool that will help make your online shopping/ buying and selling much easier and safer. ### 5/5 — A must try for any sneaker head. *2020-07-08, version 2.1* No more hassle when it comes to legit checking your street wear products. This app is very swag and cool. I like it! ### 5/5 — Transparency is key *2020-07-08, version 2.1* Needed an app like this to make sure my sneakers were authentic but wanted to hear feedback and not just a yes or no. Good to see this app come alive and excited to see what’s next. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2020-07-05, version 2.1* Love the idea of the app so much! Feedback super descriptive 💯💯 ### 5/5 — Download it now! *2020-07-04, version 2.1* Amazing app with cool features that save me so much time. Definitely worth the download. ### 5/5 — Solid App Idea *2020-07-04, version 2.1* Pretty good app idea for people that are into the fashion collecting and buying off market. Good place to verify before purchase and once more users start using this, it should be a lot harder to get scammed for replicas. ### 5/5 — Such a great app!! *2020-07-03, version 2.1* It super easy to use and you know the people giving feedback know what they’re talking about. I’m excited for their upcoming features where you can buy/sell/trade. With all the scams going around God knows we needed this 🙏🏼 ### 5/5 — FINALLY *2020-07-03, version 2.1* I feel like i can finally leave my mans alone about if the stuff I buy is legit or not! Now i can get multiple opinions if i feel like I need more!! Simple to use and i cant wait to see how the community grows within. ### 5/5 — Good concept and efficient app *2020-07-03, version 2.1* App has a great concept. I like how efficiently you can share a link of a post to facebook instead of having to manually make separate posts for each. Nice way to save some time. ### 5/5 — Sneakers *2020-07-03, version 2.1* Got my Jordans checked in like 30 mins. Quick and easy. For something that’s free, it’s def underrated af ### 5/5 — Really nice app! *2020-07-03, version 2.1* I really like the way the app looks! The users on here are friendly and give good feedback on items. The menu and interaction buttons feel smooth and comfortable. I’d recommend you use this app if you are unsure of your items. ### 5/5 — Cool and Useful App *2020-07-03, version 2.1* Great app! It’s very convenient and easy to use. I can now feel more secure knowing that the item I bought is legit. ### 5/5 — Valid!! *2020-07-03, version 2.1* Super cool that I can copy and share a link of the post to facebook and reddit instead of having to make separate posts for each one. Saves me some time and you can get more feedback on the item that way too. Glad to see there people building an app like this 💯💪🏾 ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2020-07-03, version 2.1* This app makes buying a breeze. Amazing Ui and so easy to roam through it and find what I’m looking for. One of the single most greatest buying apps. If you looking for something, you can’t find; it’s probably here! Highly recommend it! I would give it more stars if possible. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible made me lose 1,000 dolllars by saying fakes were authentic *2022-08-04, version 2.4.9* Please don’t use this app I was buying some Travis Scott Jordan 1s for 1k dollars and used this app and the check result was authentic I found out through a store that these shoes were fake because of this app I lost a thousand dollars buying replicas ### 1/5 — Beware *2021-12-20, version 2.4.6* I am texting a couple apps and put fakes up on it. I got a pair of off white 5s to pass. With a box pic. Beware with this app ### 1/5 — Bad *2021-10-20, version 2.4.5* Said a shoe was legit when it turned out to be fake, ended up losing a good chunk of change because of the incident. Also said a pair was fake when it was legit, also lost a good chunk of change on that. ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE APP *2021-02-21, version 2.4.1* Do not buy credits from Dype. It used to be free and easy to use but now it’s expensive. ### 1/5 — Needs improvement *2019-09-24* No change password and recovery ### 2/5 — Love the idea but the app keeps crashing *2019-10-01, version 1.0.2* Every time I open the app, it crashes after 10 seconds ### 3/5 — Cool concept, fix the app itself *2019-10-18, version 1.0.6* I just got it and now it crashes 20-30 seconds from opening the app. The app is a great concept and e easy to use but i can’t enjoy it fully with it crashes all the time. ### 5/5 — Great app to check your shoes *2022-12-24, version 2.4.9* I just downloaded the app and within a few minutes my authentication came back legit on my lost and founds,now it’s time to check my other shoes ### 5/5 — Fake Nike Panda Dunks *2022-12-13, version 2.4.9* Definitely worth the money . I checked ways to check my shoes for authenticity online and on YouTube and they seemed legit . Dype was very through and found the flaws not described on other sites and found I bought imitation Panda Dunks . Got my results very quickly ### 5/5 — Great app! *2022-09-08, version 2.4.9* I just got a verification on my sneakers and I loved the ease of submission and the feedback about my shoes. If I ever need another verification, I will use again!! ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Most efficient and accurate *2022-08-10, version 2.4.9* This app has been a huge upgrade compared to the previous apps I was using for authentication purposes. I haven’t had a single issue with response time, accuracy of the results, transactions to acquire credits within the app, or the system used to take and submit photos of my sneakers. I’ve only received accurate results that provided a simple ‘legit’ or ‘not legit’ remark, none of these “unable to verify” answers that I’ve received from other apps that leave you in the same spot you were before submitting wondering if your items are authentic or not. I’ve gradually moved towards using the more in depth reviews (for more credits) that provide a analysis of the decision made (reasons why the authentication team decided they were real or not). Well worth the couple extra dollars for an in depth response especially for higher end or pricier pairs of shoes. Would 100 percent recommend and will be using this app for the foreseeable future. Thanks DYPE team! ### 5/5 — Best legit app *2022-07-05, version 2.4.9* This app is dope. I cheap out and did a 24 hour check!😂 and they got back to me with the results in 15 minutes… would absolutely recommend if you’re buying any type of shoes on the resell market ### 5/5 — Good sneaker legit check *2022-01-08, version 2.4.8* App is easy to use integrated well ### 5/5 — East and Fast *2021-08-29, version 2.4.5* Very quick response and received a detailed description about how my shoes were authentic. ### 5/5 — Dype review *2021-04-10, version 2.4.4* Great service, quick legit check , happy with my results ### 5/5 — Great app *2021-04-10, version 2.4.4* Great app fastest legit checks ### 5/5 — Detailed analysis *2021-03-01, version 2.4.2* I chose to use this app in addition to another app after that app gave me mixed reviews. A lot of sneaker heads tested the other app and didn’t feel like the check was great. I read reviews for this app, and although there aren’t many there really weren’t any complaints about the process or the LC. I felt this would be a great addition to support my peace of mind but it definitely is a one stop shop. Response time was timely. I wasn’t in a rush but it definitely did not take more than a couple Hours for the check, which I think is also comforting since it makes me feel like they were checked throughly. On top of that details are given to explain why or why not the shoes are or aren’t legit. I appreciate that because I can know what to keep an eye on before a future purchase, buy them and then get a LC to be safe lol. The app is easy to use and it there are required photos to upload and more photos can be added after that for an even better analysis. All in all I recommend the app especially for people who aren’t lucky enough to get the sneakers from official release locations or online (retail). It’s peace of mind knowing you didn’t get scammed. OR for a seller trying to give validation of authenticity without proof of purchase. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
