What's New in Perf

1.0.1

October 29, 2026

Fixes and refinements: - Results now come back in the language you chose, reasons and grade notes included. - When Perf cannot pin the year, it shows the span it could be, and duplicates and your want list match across it. - Your want list fills from a name alone, and items can be edited or removed. - Correct a stamp's name, country or year yourself, or ask Perf again from the photo already in your album. - Pick another candidate on the page review instead of discarding the tile. Stamps already in your album are marked. - A page you have scanned is kept until you mount or discard it, even if the app closes. - Add the back or a perforated edge as extra angles. It still counts as one identification. - A confident answer whose design came in several perforations offers a quick gauge check. - Pro: collection report as a PDF, with your own photographs and no values. - Learn explains overprints, varieties, repairs and how to check a watermark. - The daily allowance now resets at your own midnight.

User reviews

Useful tool for collectors

I like how it tracks what I have scanned recently. Makes it easy to go back and check the details later when I am at my desk. The interface is simple enough that I dont get frustrated while using it in a hurry.

Decent accuracy on scans

Was skeptical at first but the image recognition is surprisingly good. Even with some light cancellation marks it managed to identify the specific series from the 1950s I was looking at. Really saves a lot of manual searching time.

Quick way to check prices

I use this when browsing local flea markets to see if a deal is actually worth it. The value estimates give me a rough idea so I dont overpay for something common. It works pretty fast even on my older phone.

Helped me with old albums

Found my grandpas old collection in the attic and had no clue what most of these were. Just took a few photos and it actually found the dates and origins for almost all of them. Super helpful for a total beginner like me.

FAQ

How does Perf identify stamps?

Perf uses image recognition to scan your stamps. It provides a confidence level for each identification, explaining why it's sure or suggesting alternatives if it's uncertain. This helps you verify the stamp's identity accurately.

Can Perf scan multiple stamps at once?

Yes, Perf can scan an entire album page or stockbook sheet. It identifies each stamp on the page and presents them for your confirmation, significantly speeding up the process of cataloging large collections.

Does Perf provide stamp valuations?

No, Perf does not invent stamp values. It focuses on identification and collection management, leaving the appraisal of your stamps to professional appraisers. It does not have access to licensed catalog publishers for pricing.

How is my stamp collection data managed?

Your collection data is synced privately across your devices using iCloud. No account or login is required, and nothing leaves your phone except the photos you choose to scan. This ensures your collection remains secure and private.

What are the tools available in Perf?

Perf includes a calibrated perforation gauge, condition grading suggestions based on your photos, variety and overprint reading, and plain-language explanations of philatelic terms. These tools assist in accurately identifying and documenting your stamps.

What is the difference between the standard plan and Perf Pro?

The standard plan offers a limited number of daily identifications and monthly page scans, with your mounted stamps remaining yours forever. Perf Pro unlocks unlimited identifications and page scans, provides collection-wide insight reports, and enables CSV export.

Does Perf have ads?

No, Perf does not contain advertisements. The app is designed to be ad-free, ensuring a clean and uninterrupted user experience for stamp identification and collection management.

What is the pricing for Perf Pro?

Perf Pro offers a yearly subscription at $19.99, which includes a 7-day free trial. Alternatively, a one-time lifetime payment option is available. Prices may vary by region.
