Need to fix this app

This app keeps shutting down after every scan. When I want to scan again it takes 15 seconds and two button presses to be able to scan. The scan gun in the store works much better and at this point I will delete the app. This app should be completely revamped and take off of apples we’d site until it is reliable.

Broken App

Quite literally doesn’t work.

Stopped working

Recently this stopped working. Not sure if it’s my local giant stores having problems or if they discontinued it? Grocery shopping is back to being a chore now…

No longer active

I liked the application. Went to the store last week and found they don’t use it anymore. You have to use the store scanner. Yuck. 11/2025

Unhappy

What did you do to the app? It no longer works. Two different store and two different phones both said to see customer service and they have no idea why or what to do.
