### 1/5 — Age verify

*2022-07-24, version 1.44*

Won’t open past the disclaimer

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-09-08, version 1.40*

Work at a bar in Iowa and it doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Needs an update!!!

*2021-08-31, version 1.40*

This app does not scan the new Texas id’s!! I’ve been denied at several bars because it says “unable to validate” when they scan my real ID. I’ve had to get officers to verify my ID multiple times due to this app.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2021-05-30, version 1.40*

Terrible, said couldn’t validate real Id from dmv

### 1/5 — Scan IDs

*2019-02-19, version 1.0*

Does this only scan IDs from Iowa? What good is that. No thanks. We see IDs from all over the country.

### 4/5 — App

*2022-03-24, version 1.41*

Is there a update for the app? I’ve had this id app for sometime now and when I scan a id now it says unable to validate. Is there any fixes for it. Kramer bar

### 5/5 — Works like it should

*2022-06-14, version 1.44*

The app works. Yes there are some false positives. But better to deny and deal with the customer than to serve an underage.  The fakes are so good these days this app helps a lot.

### 5/5 — Does It’s Job

*2021-07-24, version 1.40*

I work at a convenience store in Missouri.  We’ve caught a number of kids using fake IDs to buy vapes, liquor and tobacco products.  Our registers can’t seem to weed them out but this app does.  Thank you.

### 5/5 — Works great!  Minors Beware!!

*2020-01-04, version 1.31*

I work at a bar In Kansas City, we have an expensive ID scanner that will accept fake ID as if it was real. But when I use this app and scan a fake ID it will say “unable to validate” which means it’s a fake ID.  I highly recommend this app to any door guy/ bartender who thinks that an ID might be fake. Oh it also works on multiple state ID’s I’ve literally seen every single state ID and never had a problem with this app. Love it!
