Response from developer

Muito obrigado pela sua recomendação e avaliação positiva!

Дебри регистрации

Прежде чем начать пользоваться приложением нужно зарегистрироваться и активировать/купить доступ. Так вот тут кучу багов и дыр. Ошибки сыпятся разные почти на каждом шаге. Куча не очевидностей. Если у вас есть нервы и время, тогда можете побросать приложение.

Muito bom aplicativo

Nota 10

Incredible

The accuracy is unbelievable, it feels surreal, like it's out of a science fiction novel. It even works with a sub par tripod and 1 minute games!

I do hope they add support for other forms of payment besides roubles, which I am told they are working on, but you can still email them for a trial until then.

Вылетает приложение

Почему приложение вылетает каждый раз , когда сканируешь позицию из галереи , а так же при сохранении позиции ?

Response from developer
