Won’t capture or show any signs of analyzing barcodes. Won’t prompt cam to adapt. ### 1/5 — Camera and alerts *2024-09-02* Edit: barcode scanner completely broken at this point straight crashes as soon as you press it 0/5 The developer needs to enable camera switching on the barcode scanner. And the alerts section just opens up the new email app on my phone. App is basically useless without camera switching ### 2/5 — Scam??? *2024-08-27* Love the app but recently tried the games for the first time. Very simple stupid games just like most gambling. However! I have won a lot of points and I have not received any of them! I even have a screen shot of winning a lot and it’s clearly not added to my total amount. Scam I’d say. ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-08-14, version 1.0.16* Keeps crashing. Useless. ### 1/5 — App broken? *2024-08-10, version 1.0.16* You can open the app but if you press any button it closes itself. No update available. ### 1/5 — Lots of errors *2024-08-07* Have not been able to check tickets for the past month. Get notifications from the app when you click the notifications, the app closes suddenly. Really glitchy. ### 1/5 — Lost my 200,000 winning points. *2024-07-28* I was in the middle of playing the in-app game “Stacks of Cash” and just won the 200,000 points jackpot from betting 20 points when the app crashed. How convenient. I believe must have a directive when someone hits a jackpot to avoid the huge payout. It’s unfair because there is no record or evidence/proof to get the winnings back. It’s only for a chance to win one of four $100 weekly winnings. Maybe nobody actually wins those little $100 payouts and this is the way to avoid it by destroying the evidence. Disappointing. ### 1/5 — Freezes *2024-07-26, version 1.0.16* I can’t open the App anymore. It just closes out on me ### 1/5 — Please fix the ticket scanner for newer Iphones *2024-07-23, version 1.0.16* The “Did I win” scanner doesn’t work with newer iPhones. The bonus code scan still works great though. ### 1/5 — CRASHES!! *2024-07-22, version 1.0.16* Crashes and when it does kinda work it is glitchy. Hence, don’t trust it too much! ### 1/5 — App stopped opening *2024-07-20, version 1.0.16* When opening the app it doesn’t OPEN ### 1/5 — Broken/Fixed *2024-07-18* Can no longer scan any of the barcodes, just crashes instantly... Definitely does not fail gracefully, lol. Updated: Was advised to uninstall/reinstall, which is the app developers unplug it/plug it back in solution, but that seemed to work! ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-07-18* I have used this app for years now. This was updated yesterday on my devices. Will not allow any function within. Closes the app when anything is selected. ### 1/5 — App Broke *2024-06-17, version 1.0.16* Fix the app!! ### 1/5 — Camera and alerts *2024-04-19* The developer needs to enable camera switching on the barcode scanner. And the alerts section just opens up the new email app on my phone. App is basically useless without camera switching ### 1/5 — Error!!! Error!!!! Error!!!!! *2024-02-13, version 1.0.14* Everything I try and do on this app gives me an error! Play slips can not be saved it keeps giving me an error. Very frustrating! ### 1/5 — Scanner won’t work *2024-02-06, version 1.0.14* The scanner on the app won’t work at all. Used to work, but no longer. Extremely slow to bring up saved playslips. Most of the time won’t load. Had to take a picture of the QR code in order to have access to the saved slips. I know you guys have a monopoly and don’t have to do anything, but it would be nice if you had a little respect for your customers. ### 1/5 — App not working. *2024-02-01* Frequently have freezes when scanning tickets, getting the “drawing not held yet” when it’s hours past draw time. Constantly having to close app and retry and that only fixes it sometimes. This app needs a lot of attention. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — This app blows *2025-06-24, version 1.0.19* Errors galore, can’t create member account without getting object error message ### 1/5 — Pathetic App *2025-06-17, version 1.0.19* The camera will capture anything but the barcode, everything it does find is “Generic Error”. Stupid ### 1/5 — Can’t create account & no support available *2025-05-24* I downloaded the app and attempted to create an account but, after filling out the incredibly tedious and un-user friendly sign-up form, I was greeted with an error that said, “The operation couldn't be completed. ObjectMapper failed to serialize response.” When I click the developer support button it takes me to their website that offers no support options. Come on, do better. Get some middle schoolers to help with your app. ### 1/5 — It’s time for an overhaul *2024-12-15, version 1.0.18* This stupid app decides it’s not going to scan the barcodes so we can see if we won! This is absolutely junk ### 1/5 — Camera and alerts *2024-10-07, version 1.0.17* Edit: barcode scanner completely broken at this point straight crashes as soon as you press it 0/5 The developer needs to enable camera switching on the barcode scanner.
