### 2/5 — Delete

*2025-05-28, version 9.8*

Delete

### 4/5 — Good app

*2019-12-02, version 7.2*

Good app

### 1/5 — Saves time

*2019-10-15, version 7.2*

I like checking my tickets on this app but I do still check in the ship just in case there’s a mistake!

### 5/5 — What have you done to the app?

*2019-09-22*

Where is the scan tickets feature now?

**Developer response:** Hello! The app has been redesigned for iOS 13 and dark mode. The scan ticket button has moved to the top-right of the screen (when you have the Tickets tab selected). It’s a picture of a QR code. Kind regards, John

### 5/5 — Eddy cartwright

*2019-09-21, version 7.0*

It was good but now their trying to charge me 😠

### 5/5 — Effective

*2019-09-19*

Very effective in giving alerts and also giving results. However, if the purchase reminders could come a bit early in the day, say around 8am, that would help to stake the numbers before 3pm.

**Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for your kind review. I've added a setting to allow you to specify your preferred time for the purchase reminders. It will be available in the next update which should be released very soon. Kind regards, John

### 5/5 — Saving time

*2019-09-15, version 7.0*

Great service for checking your lotto tickets on the go 👍

### 1/5 — We should not have to pay for this

*2019-09-15, version 7.0*

No

### 1/5 — Total greed

*2019-09-14, version 7.0*

Fine till they started charging, aren’t they making enough money ?
Scandalous

### 1/5 — Grrr

*2019-09-13*

Why change to subscription why on earth would I pay money to find out if I have won anything when I can just check myself it was easier with your app which was why I used it
Just going to delete the app when I have written this 
Money grabbing !!!!!

**Developer response:** Hello! Thanks for trying Lotto Lens. The app was changed to a subscription model over a year ago, it’s just being highlighted more prominently in the current version to make it more obvious (and easier) for users to subscribe. The app takes a significant amount of time to develop and support, and we send many many (many!) thousands of push notifications of winning tickets and results almost every day. There’s significant costs associated with that and so it’s simply not feasible for the app to be free. Kind regards, John

### 1/5 — Was great until they increased their prices by 50%

I’ve found this app to be so very handy,you don’t have to find out what the winning number are..once you’ve scanned your ticket ,just click onto the app & it tells you..
I dint like it.I love it !!!

**Developer response:** Hi Keith, thank you so much for your kind review - I’m so pleased you’re loving the app, it means a lot. I hope you scan a winning ticket soon! Kind regards, John
