Completely useless ### 1/5 — Everyone is a possible fake *2021-05-10, version 1.1* iPhone 12. Latest iOS.

Too few features *2024-07-07, version 1.3.0* No data. Just a name and age. Big deal. ### 1/5 — Waste of money *2023-11-05, version 1.3.0* Wouldn’t let me use across separate iPads for my business. Tried to upgrade for $19.99 but charged me $29.99. Cancelled after a day ### 1/5 — Trial *2023-05-15, version 1.3.0* This app would be more marketable if they allowed a few free scans to warrant the subscription. I won’t purchase anything with a trial run. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-07-02, version 1.1* I scanned my id my boyfriends id and 2 of my friends and all said it couldn’t scan because they might be fake….. they’re not. ### 1/5 — Scam *2022-06-01, version 1.1* Never worked and zero customer service ### 1/5 — Does not work *2022-05-02, version 1.1* This does not work. I have tried twice. My ID and one other person. It wouldn’t scan at all. Wish this worked. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-03-23, version 1.1* Doesn’t scan IDs ever. Tried multiple of my own and my real ones were all deemed fakes. Update: Scannr works amazing. You only have 20 free scans but if you are looking for an app that only needs to work a few times like me that’s the one for you. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — ID scanner *2022-07-01, version 1.1* Love this app it works as it should.
