Can’t even get past the account setup page
Sent in my email, received a verification link, they said I was verified. Great. Go to the app, login with no issues, complete the questions about name and year of birth and if I wear glasses, contacts, etc. Click on complete and immediately get an error message telling me my email address is in an invalid format. Not a good sign.

Complex, error-prone and inaccurate
Firstly, I failed to see how this is any simpler than just trying on glasses at the store. I am aware that the top review is a fake plant attempting to preempt this feedback but it’s true.
I need readers, my prescription indicates that I need readers, and that wasn’t the result here. Ridiculous waste of time.

A revolutionary product
This app is very useful and easy to use. Takes the guestwork out of getting an add number in buying reading glasses or computer glasses or in changing my current prescription for reading glasses.
Pretty accurate
Recommended a 2.25x and they are fine
Not entirely satisfied
I don’t pay for a lot of apps, but I was intrigued by this one. It worked as advertised, I guess, but didn’t give me useful info and annoyed me on sign-up. The annoyance was that there is a checkbox about whether you want notices from them, but if you leave the opt-in box unchecked, you can’t proceed. That’s malicious design, frankly, and I didn’t appreciate it, especially from a paid app. When I did the reading test, the answer I got was “1.75+”. And, right, I knew that. I wasn’t expecting the upper limit on the app to be set so it wouldn’t give me a specific, useful, number. Bottom line: if you’re more forgiving than I am about opt-in policies and if your eyesight is still good enough that you can make out text if you hold a book at arms-length, go ahead and spring for this app and it should give you a useful number.
