Do not buy! ### 1/5 — Ne perdez pas votre argent *2023-11-15* Ne fonctionne pas du tout!! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2023-10-08* Wish I had read the reviews before buying this, maybe not expensive but it has trouble even recognising even simple bricks. Tried different lighting plain backgrounds but nothing seems to improve its guesses because that’s all they are because some of the ID’s don’t resemble the brick being scanned. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t recognise bricks! *2023-10-03* It will only recognise 2/10 bricks it is given. Camera lens extreme close-up works best, but a terrible app 🤦🏼‍♀️ ### 1/5 — Scam *2023-08-31* Nutzlos, wahrscheinlich Betrug ### 1/5 — Failed to recognise any pieces. *2023-08-13* Doesn’t do what it says ### 1/5 — Not recognize anything… *2023-08-04, version 1.0* The app is want to pay before work. After i pay the app can’t recognize any brick. App show different bricks which is even not similar … ### 1/5 — I want my money back *2023-07-30* If I could select less than 1 star I would ### 1/5 — Useless *2023-06-18* Tried 6 different technic bricks, didn’t recognise one. I want a refund. ### 1/5 — Bait and switch… *2023-06-07* The app is not free. It costs a dollar. They don’t tell you this until you’ve installed it and try to unlock the camera. $1 is a great price and I would gladly pay it if 1) I knew it would work (sounds like maybe the quality is iffy) and 2) they weren’t using skeezy marketing tricks (which makes me not trust the developer) ### 1/5 — .99 cents to use key feature? *2023-05-30, version 1.0* What a money grab, no thanks ### 1/5 — Do not waste your time or money *2023-05-26* Did not work at all.. even the most basic legos were not properly identified! I want my 99 cents back!! ### 1/5 — Watch out for micro payments *2023-04-21* When you download this app, you have to pay a $.99 fee to use the camera as soon as you open the app ### 1/5 — Garbage *2023-04-21, version 1.0* I want my .99 back. This is completely useless. ### 1/5 — Useless and Ripoff *2023-04-12* I paid the $1 to use the camera to identify the pieces. I was trying to go off ball pieces to help identify sets. A curved coral colored piece got me 1x16 or 2x16 pieces totally wrong and not even close. ### 1/5 — Worthless *2023-04-04* I was trying to figure out a fairly uncommon piece and got no good results so I tried a 1x6 plate. The suggestions were a 2x4, a 2x8, and a 1x8. They at least were all plates, but it couldn’t even get the correct number of studs? Glad it was only a dollar I wasted. ### 1/5 — It didn’t work *2023-03-18* I would totally love this app but it didn’t work I touched the unlock camera but it wouldn’t work but I do love the idea of it ### 1/5 — useless *2023-03-14, version 1.0* i wanted to use the camera but it costed money. so i didnt wanna risk it. i still wanted to make use of the app with the search feature but that didnt really work either. useless. ### 1/5 — App is stupid can’t even use the camera arter I payed 0.99 o hate this app never buy *2023-03-11* I want to sue them for false advertising I’m only a pre teen and I payed a dollar and I want to bring them to court seriously o hate this app NEVER GET THIS APP! ### 1/5 — Did not work *2023-03-09* We have a ton of older Lego sets mixed up and I was hoping to sort the sets. The app makes you purchase the camera feature for .99 and then it did not recognize even the easiest pieces. I love the idea of this app and really hope it gets improved to serve its function, which unfortunately it doesn’t right now. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Download and pay *2025-09-20, version 1.0* Don’t pay before test this. Negative opinions. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-07-29* Please don’t spend any money on this. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2025-04-10* Do not waste your money. Doesn’t recognize any piece. Even the most basic. ### 1/5 — Strata pieniędzy. *2025-04-06, version 1.0* Nie rozpoznaje klocków, tylko udaje, że próbuje. ### 1/5 — Do not waste your time and money on this!!! *2025-01-21* I was trying to figure out what my piece was so I could search for it in a designing app, so I found this, and, even though it looks reasonable for $0.99, it was horrible. I put the camera near my piece to scan it, and it identified it as a “cheese slope,” but it was nowhere near that! I deleted the app, and to this day I still wonder what my piece was. ### 1/5 — WHY DO YOU HAVE TO SPEND MONEY?!?! *2024-12-26* So recently I got a Lego Mario set and couldn’t find a specific piece. So, I got this app to try to find it. And I am GREATLY DISAPPOINTED. Don’t get this app, the main feature of it is blocked behind a paywall. ### 1/5 — I’m definitely deleting this *2024-11-21* I’m never getting this again >:( I’m just relying on the Review’s and never EVER getting it. ### 1/5 — Can you make your app work *2024-04-02* I waited 10 minutes for it to download and as soon as I enter I paid 1 dollar and for what a charity fund and then I see the most basic Lego bricks not even close to what is in front of me fix your app ### 1/5 — Fraude *2024-03-02* Este app não funciona. Mostrei um monte de peças técnicas escuras em fundo branco e bem iluminado com espaços entre elas. Não acertou uma única peça. Ele te cobra antes de poder testar. Fraude. Não pague. Denuncie. ### 1/5 — Worst App Ever *2024-01-29* This does not work for what it does. Only 99p but it’s not worth it as it simply does not do what it says or what you want it to do. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
