### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect. Doesn’t work.

*2024-10-07, version 2.0.6*

Not worth the price. (Free) waste of time.

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time

*2024-05-15, version 2.0.6*

The app is free to download but after that it is useless.The app tells you to connect to a reader. It doesn’t connect to anything it doesn’t work at all. The whole point was to be able to scan for a chip in a lost pet and get the owner’s address or phone to return the pet. Or get the id number on the chip so that I can go online and update my information when I lost the id number without having to take the dog to the vet and pay. But you can’t do anything don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Cannot update data field

*2023-12-08, version 1.0.3*

The app seemed to work as intended with the scanner. 
However there is no way to update the owners email or phone information. 
And owners email & phone info does not export with rest of the data. 
This needs to be updated urgently.

### 1/5 — Junk

*2023-09-17, version 1.0.3*

Will not connect to scanner. No help information.

### 2/5 — Cant find a microchip

*2023-07-22, version 1.0.3*

It won’t find the microchip

### 5/5 — Utile!

*2023-05-16, version 1.0.3*

App semplice ed utile, come deve essere.
Si potrebbe aggiungere la possibilità di creare più cartelle, sarebbe comodo per chi ha gli animali divisi in più gruppi.

### 1/5 — Non funziona più

*2023-01-07, version 1.0.2*

Prego gli sviluppatori di aggiornarlo perché ormai non si può più condividere la lettura dei microchip

### 1/5 — It doesn’t work

*2020-10-12, version 1.0.2*

Rubbish app that’s an actual waste of data.
Can I give it negative stars ?

### 1/5 — Don’t work

*2019-02-17*

Dose not seem to work. Have deleted and retired but always the same.
