But now in order to add a card there must be a barcode on the card. Since I can’t add a card without one I am now looking for something else. ### 2/5 — Laggy, slow doesn’t load cards on Apple Watch standalone *2026-03-04, version 6.38.1* A lot of the time I will be out and about without my phone on me and for some reason it needs to connect to your phone to pull the cards. So if you want to go out you have to make sure to open the app at home. Make sure the cards display on watch and sync then leave the house without your phone. If you can please fix this so when I’m out with my watch only it loads my cards. Thank you !!! ### 3/5 — Poppy from bottom interferes *2026-02-05, version 6.38.1* The popup that comes from the bottom has a delay or stutter, so just as I tap the card I want, that popup gets in front and screws it all up. I can’t be the only one this happens to. Otherwise it works. ### 2/5 — Bring back search bar at startup! *2026-01-29, version 6.38.0* Why make such a key component harder to access when it used to appear at app startup?? ### 4/5 — I do love this app *2025-07-20, version 6.34.0* This app is easy to use, the only thing you can’t seem to add is my QR Codes like for Tesco and my work place. ### 2/5 — Poor Apple Watch app *2025-06-08, version 6.34.0* Tried as a replacement to Stocard. But it’s not much use for me. Firstly it only displays cards on your watch if you have your phone with you, which I often don’t secondly you can’t create a shortcut to open the app as a complication. Therefore I’ve switched to SuperCards which works much better on my watch. ### 1/5 — Privacy nightmare *2025-06-08, version 6.34.0* The app does what it says - digitising loyalty cards is actually quite handy and the barcode scanning works well. No more fumbling through my wallet at checkout. BUT - and this is a big but - I actually read their privacy policy and I’m genuinely concerned about what they’re doing with user data. What bothered me: Excessive data collection: They’re not just storing your cards. They’re tracking your location continuously, monitoring everything you do in the app, collecting device information, and building advertising profiles based on where you go. Data sharing with retailers: This is the big red flag. They explicitly share your customer numbers and advertising IDs with retailers so they can match your mobile-pocket activity with their existing customer data. Your loyalty card usage is basically being sold. Location-based ads: They send push notifications based on your physical location. I got alerts about offers just for walking past certain shops, which felt quite intrusive. Automatic account creation: They create an account the moment you install, before you’ve agreed to their terms. Privacy alternatives needed The core functionality is genuinely useful, but the privacy trade-offs are significant. They’re essentially monetising your shopping habits and location data through retailer partnerships. If you’re not bothered by comprehensive data tracking and sharing, the app works fine. But if privacy matters to you, I’d look elsewhere or at minimum: • Deny location access • Turn off push notifications • Use a separate email The convenience isn’t worth having my shopping patterns and movements tracked and shared with retailers. Would love a privacy-focused alternative that just stores cards without the surveillance. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2025-06-07, version 6.34.0* I have always use app offline. I had several loyalty cards loaded. I have never had an account as an app that stores barcodes should not need an online account. Today, they’re apparently was a terms of use change and you can’t get past it without connecting that app to the Internet. When I did so it deleted all my cards. So I’m gonna delete this app bye-bye. ### 4/5 — Apple Watch widget *2025-05-05, version 6.33.0* Overall, this is a very good app. One thing that is missing is there is no widget that I can install on my Apple Watch face ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Make it make sense *2026-07-29, version 8.1.2* Real-time entry search, check. Tap into 1 of 2+ matching entries, and then decide to visit 1 of the other matched entries … but alas you have to RE-ENTER the search string since it was cleared upon tapping into the original entry. Search bar should ALWAYS be visible, full stop. Like seriously. ### 1/5 — Don’t update! *2026-07-26, version 8.1.1* I updated the app, and now all my cards are gone. Years of stuff put in there is gone. ### 1/5 — You had one job... *2026-07-26, version 8.1.1* That job is be ready and show me my FlyBuys card when I need it. What /was is this policy you made me just press to see said card? ### 1/5 — Oops! *2026-07-23, version 8.1.0* I hadn’t used the app for some time, as most places are moving away from loyalty cards and instead harvesting people’s phone numbers to use as loyalty numbers instead (always give a fake one!). I recently opened to find the two dozen or so cards I had added over the years were gone. Every last one. I’m so glad I didn’t rely on this app to save my cards and that I kept backups. In any case, an app that promises to store cards and then deletes them all for no reason isn’t really worth anything, and it’s certainly not welcome on my phone any longer. Deleted! ### 1/5 — Devs no longer listen to suggestions *2026-07-22, version 8.0.0* Used to love the app, now it’s annoying to search and step back from matched entries. ### 1/5 — Make search bar sticky again *2026-02-04, version 6.38.1* This! ^^^ ### 1/5 — “Wishes”? *2025-12-12, version 6.37.1* What’s the point of a wishlist in a barcode app? Why do you STILL re-display ALL cards after searching for certain one(s) and tapping a resulting card? After viewing the desired card, tapping Close should return the user to the previously-searched list, NOT the ENTIRE list. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-11-10, version 6.36.0* I just installed this on my brand new iPad mini, I have an account for my iPhone and my old iPad, but it absolutely refuses to accept my login or password on the new iPad. Obviously this does not work on the latest iPads and there’s no way to communicate with the app developer. For anybody thinking of adding this to a new iPad, it is junk. ### 1/5 — No apple watch complication *2025-09-15, version 6.35.0* Moved from Stocard to this app. In terms of card functionality it is very similar however it does not have a Apple Watch widget to allow for accessing direct from Watch face like Stocard did. ### 1/5 — Не тратьте время *2025-08-03, version 6.31.2* Не работает. Ошибка инициализации при первом запуске. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Works perfectly *2026-06-20, version 6.39.1* Great for all my UK loyalty cards and it has the ability to add customer cards like gym membership and the library. ### 5/5 — Best App For Shopping Pass Cards *2026-01-24, version 6.37.1* This app was just what I had wanted. I’ve had this app for over seven years and it still works fine. My gym membership is even on it. I had a ring full of shopping passes on my keychain getting old, lost, and dirty. As I found this app, that ring is gone. I have passes that they don’t even give out anymore, like Walgreens, that still works. I used to cringe when a store offered me another pass. Now, it’s no big deal. 7eleven is the only pass that doesn’t work. When CVS changed their passes from UPC to QR, it was very easy to update the new pass. ### 5/5 — iOS 15 *2026-01-07, version 6.31.2* Hi. You have a great app; there's no other worthy alternative. However, iOS 15 support has been discontinued. I still hope you'll perhaps release an update for older OS versions. I can't even edit old cards, much less add new ones, due to lack of API access. Perhaps the generation functionality could be implemented offline. But it's still wonderful. I use it all the time. In the same form it's left in. ### 5/5 — Card saver *2025-12-31, version 6.37.1* People use this for their loyalty cards, but I use it for my library card. It’s a lifesaver. ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2025-10-06, version 6.35.0* This app is spot on. It does what it’s supposed to, and it does it well. I particularly like how it displays bar codes in full screen. This is particularly useful at some self scan checkouts which struggle to read the smaller barcodes as displayed in Apple Wallet. ### 5/5 — Everything works smooth except annoying “My Offer” *2025-08-17, version 6.35.0* I recommend it if you have a lot of membership cards. It’s very easy to set up, just scan the barcodes and everything works smoothly when shopping. The only annoying thing is that every time I open the app, the “My Offer” popup takes up one-third of the screen. I really wish there was an option in the settings to disable it from showing up every single time. ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-07-11, version 6.34.0* A great place to keep all of you store cards and more! ### 5/5 — Great alternative to Stocard *2025-05-31, version 6.33.0* Thank you for providing this app for free, now that Stocard is gone (absorbed into Karna) ### 5/5 — Apple Watch *2025-04-16, version 6.33.0* It’s great. I was using Stocard but since it was sold, I find it useful. The only thing is it can’t be added to my Apple Watch main screen ### 5/5 — Chloe *2025-04-04, version 6.33.0* Techr Paul --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
