### 4/5 — Works well for a free app

*2024-07-14, version 7.0.3*

Just downloaded the new app using my old subscription information, and all of my previous searches appeared - impressive. Problem is, how do I remove the searches I am no longer interested in?

### 1/5 — THEY RUINED IT!!! WHY?

*2020-11-14, version 6.3.99*

I use to use this app every single day (I’m a car Trader) now the main and only purpose of this app is completely gone, and all the money I’ve spent on getting HPI checks for my previous & current cars has all completely gone, not sure why this is but seems as its just shut down also when I type in the reg & click “Free” nothings happening so even now after it redirects you to crap web browser its not working so totally unusable... absolutely pointless, deleted the app.

### 1/5 — New version shocking

*2020-11-14, version 6.3.99*

I’ve used this app for years.  The new updated one is shocking. 
Can’t log in, tried over and just keeps sending an email. Can’t find out anything about a car without paying now. 
Deleted

### 1/5 — Was great - now truly awful

*2020-11-14, version 6.3.99*

Had this app for years and found it really helpful , well priced ‘full’ HPI checks, user friendly and stored all previous searches. 

You now have to login and get an email link for every search - complete waste of time and now far more user friendly apps to do the same thing. 

Well done on ruining a great app in the name of progress. 

Avoid it as it will drive you mad !!

### 1/5 — Was good, no more

*2020-11-13, version 6.3.99*

Used to be great now they’ve completely ruined it

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-11-13, version 6.3.99*

Why have an app to redirect to the website utter nonsense. If we downloading an app we want an app not a website 
Sort yourselves out it’s not like there are not better alternatives

### 1/5 — Another app ruined with an update

*2020-11-13, version 6.3.99*

I’ve used this for so long, casually looking up cars, purchasing information when I want to. New update blocked everything & apparently you can’t even get the vehicle details without paying.  Disappointing.

### 1/5 — Used to be good

*2020-11-12, version 6.3.99*

You used to be able to put in car regs and see car info/specs, which was fun when out and about.
Now it’s gone the way of forcing a registration/login etc.
I don’t think you can even see specs anymore.

### 1/5 — Used to be great

*2020-11-04, version 6.3.99*

This was a useful app and all I get now is a pointless login screen

### 3/5 — Wrong car info

*2020-10-16, version 6.3.14*

Shows my 2001 facelift Audi S8 as having 335bhp which is incorrect - that power is the first S8 (non-facelift). The facelift S8 has 355bhp (or 360ps).

Also, it doesn’t update the MOT info on an existing car check in my garage. I have to type the number plate in again.

### 1/5 — Wasted Money

*2020-10-13, version 6.3.14*

Paid good money for this app and since the last update it no longer works. Money completely wasted. 
And don’t get me started on the amount of times I’ve had to re-register all my details for this app because every time I try to login it doesn’t recognise any of my details. What was once a great app completely ruined by the idiot developer.

### 1/5 — Greed

*2020-08-13, version 6.3.13*

Was great until greed took over and now limits how many basic checks you can do.

### 1/5 — REALLY DISAPPOINTED LIMITING NUMBER OF SEARCHS A DAY

*2020-07-17, version 6.3.10*

I’ve always used this app and now they are limiting searches per day to try to make more money 😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡

### 2/5 — Not again!

*2020-07-09, version 6.3.10*

Love using this app but...
Where’s all my history gone...again? Last year you deleted it all and thankfully gave a means to retrieve it. I’ve been logged out of the app, went to log back in and found all my history deleted. 

Can it be retrieved please?

### 1/5 — Scam

*2025-08-01, version 7.0.3*

I have paid to have the car checked and it has taken the money from my account and there is no check to show available. Do not use this app it’s a scam

### 1/5 — wrong report

*2024-12-13, version 7.0.3*

I used this app to check a car I was interested in purchasing, and their report falsely indicated that the car was under finance. Concerned, I paid another company for a verification check, which confirmed there was no finance pending on the car.

This experience was extremely disappointing. A wrong report like this can significantly impact your buying decision and cause unnecessary stress.

I cannot recommend this app. It provided inaccurate information and turned out to be a waste of money.

### 1/5 — Unable to sign in

*2024-06-23, version 7.0.3*

When trying to sign in to the app it’s supposed to send you an email with a code. I never get it. 
Signing into the website works fine, so at the minute it’s just an app I can’t use.

### 1/5 — Headache

*2024-05-02, version 7.0.3*

Awful layout and so busy. Good info but other than paying for a check not much other use

### 1/5 — It said that that registration number didn’t exist

*2023-12-31*

No number

**Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out to us with your concern. I understand your frustration when the registration number you entered did not yield any results and I can see that you are based in the USA.

Our database integrates with the UK's Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) and other UK-based organizations, which allows us to maintain a comprehensive and accurate record of UK-registered vehicles only​​.

Unfortunately, this means that our service is unable to provide information on vehicles registered outside the UK, such as those in the USA. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

### 1/5 — Mr Smith

*2020-11-16, version 6.3.99*

Why change everything, I have lost all my checks.  Going elsewhere now.

### 1/5 — App and become useless

*2020-11-15, version 6.3.99*

Use to love using this app and now just shows a fake screen to go on the website. Really loved this app but now you have to use the website and it’s like a primary school kid has designed it. Why is this app even on the AppStore when it says use the website. DON’T DOWNLOAD THIS CRAP APP! Avoid at all cost.

### 1/5 — Useless App that was once good

*2020-11-15, version 6.3.99*

Was an excellent app before but now it’s absolutely useless. The app takes you to a website where you have to log in, the search history is gone. What was once a great app is now pathetic. The old case of, if it isn’t broke, don’t fix it applies here.

### 1/5 — It used to be good

*2020-11-14, version 6.3.99*

This app was good until they decided to stop it from working whilst they work on a new app. Now my purchased hpi checks are no longer available on the app. Not impressed.

### 1/5 — What’s Happened ?

*2020-11-14, version 6.3.99*

Used to love this app but now it’s a never ending loop of logging in with email, then clicking the link in the email then back to being sent another email and so on until I want to throw my phone at a wall. Never get to any screen that lets me see the details I used to see for free. Looks like it’s pay up or get frustrated with a never ending loop of getting nowhere if you want to keep it free. Very disappointed in this latest so called upgrade. More like a massive downgrade.

### 5/5 — Really useful

*2024-07-24, version 7.0.3*

I’ve used the app many times and find it quick and easy to use. I buy bundles of checks which makes it good value.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2024-07-22, version 7.0.3*

Amazing the amount of information given on a car. Especially liked the valuation over a period of years (and it doesn’t always go down!)

### 5/5 — MoT Testing

### 5/5 — Good useful app

*2020-07-03, version 6.3.8*

Great app for checking the history of a car you are thinking of buying, or even just to double check the MOT expiry date of your own car

### 5/5 — Mr s Chawner

### 5/5 — Review

*2020-04-14, version 6.3.2*

Excellent, anything you need to find out about a vehicle, I done a search on an old bike I picked up from side of road, the police never came to pick it up 30 years later I got my car check to do a report, it came back stolen they got in touch with the insurance they decided to remove the stolen tag of the bike, what over company would put themselves out to do that !
