## What is Jackpot Genius?

Point your camera at a Powerball or Mega Millions ticket. Jackpot Genius reads lines in seconds and checks them against the drawing when you save.

Not just the top line. All of them.

Your first scan is free.

Nothing is saved before you see it.
Every scan ends on a review screen. Lines it couldn't read are flagged, and every number is one tap to fix.

You can also use a photo you already took, or type the lines in by hand.

Scan a multi-draw ticket and pick a drawing. It is checked when that result comes in. Free saves one drawing at a time. Pro takes the whole ticket in one save.

Rule changes are ours to follow, not yours.
The app keeps a dated record of each game's rules and prize tables. Multipliers are applied line by line, the way that game worked at the time. Old tickets are scored under the rules of their drawing date, not today's. If a lottery corrects a result or a prize table, your tickets are checked again.

You find out when the results are in.
One notification per game, once the winning numbers are confirmed. No morning digest, no daily summary. The ticket goes back in your pocket, and every line you saved is checked the next time you open the app.

Play as a group and one person holds the ticket. Share it by link and the same lines land in everyone's app, so you all find out together. It works whether or not they have Jackpot Genius, any time before the drawing.

Live jackpot estimates and a countdown sit on the home screen, with each game's prize table a tap away. Recent drawings lists the winning numbers. Your ticket highlights the ones you matched, line by line. Lucky Numbers shows which numbers your tickets have matched most often. It is a record, not a prediction.

Your tickets stay yours.
The reading happens on your phone, so a ticket scans offline and no pixel of it leaves the device. The app has no way to send a photo anywhere. The numbers do leave, saved to your account so they can be checked. They go nowhere else unless you share a ticket yourself, and our results server never reads them. No ads, no ad tracking, and we never sell your data.

Browse jackpots and results as a guest. Scanning, saving, and checking need an account: email, Apple, or Google. Lock the app behind Face ID or Touch ID, and delete your account from inside the app.

Free to check.
Manual entry, checking, live jackpots, and results notifications are free for the current drawing and the last 7 days. So is your first scan, camera or photo. After that, scanning is Pro, as is entering or checking a ticket from an older drawing. A free account can have tickets waiting on up to 5 upcoming drawings at a time. A drawing stops counting once it happens and your ticket is checked.

Pro is unlimited scanning, whole multi-draw tickets in one save, and the full drawing archive. $34.99 a year / $4.99 a month.

That is less than one Mega Millions play a month.

Eligible new annual subscribers get a 7-day free trial; unless cancelled before the trial ends, it converts to the paid annual subscription. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled, and are billed through the App Store, where you can cancel at any time.

What it does not do.
Powerball and Mega Millions only. No state games, no scratchers, no keno. Jackpot Genius is an independent ticket-tracking tool, and it doesn't sell tickets, take wagers, or handle money.

It is not affiliated with any state lottery, MUSL, Powerball, or Mega Millions. Results are informational.

Automated ticket reading and public lottery data can each occasionally get it wrong. Always verify a winning ticket with your state lottery before you discard it.

*2026-08-22*

This was so easy to use and while I didn't win the powerball yet, it let me know that I had the powerball number and my winnings.

You can now share your tickets. Send the link to whoever you are playing with and the same lines land in their own app, so everyone finds out together when the results are in. It works whether or not they already have Jackpot Genius. There is also a short code to type in, for when a link is awkward to tap.

Also in this update: minor bug fixes and quality of life improvements.

Saving a ticket offline now works. Save with no signal and your ticket syncs on its own the next time you have a connection.

Drawing result notifications no longer disappear before you have read them.

Lucky Numbers now appear already settled, instead of changing a moment after you open the app.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-17

No release notes.
