## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Was once useful

*2022-08-18, version 1.7.1*

This “new and improved” app is anything but. Frequently cannot identify barcodes, after multiple attempts will eventually recognize the code. Then fairly often locks up with a alert box which cannot be accessed and another partial window offset and unreachable off screen right. Only way to restore the app is to shut down and restart the app.  No good.

### 1/5 — RIPOFF

*2022-01-25, version 1.7.1*

They took my book, didn’t provide any sort of evidence of a supposed page that was torn off, and gave me $0 for the book. This company is a ripoff. Do not send them any books!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-01-17, version 1.7.1*

Super cheap offers for books in good/mint condition. Pretty much installed this for it to insult me. Do NOT recommend.

### 1/5 — Horrible Service

*2021-04-21, version 1.7.1*

The app is great, but the service is the worst.

### 1/5 — Frozen

*2020-07-12, version 1.6.4*

It scanned a book without warning and told me it’s not accepted.  Then I clicked on “find out why” and now my app is frozen.

### 2/5 — Doesn’t pay as promised

*2022-01-24, version 1.7.1*

Lately I’ve sent in books that are not recorded properly when they’re received, so I don’t get the payment for them.  They pay very little for the few books that they actually do accept. This app used to be pretty great but I won’t be using it anymore after recent experiences.

### 3/5 — Don’t want to sell

*2020-06-12, version 1.6.3*

The app easy use and sell books,but books are sold for too cheap,I don’t want to sell here

### 5/5 — Solid App

*2020-06-25, version 1.6.4*

Simple to use and by the far the most $$ I could get for my books. All without leaving the house.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2020-03-03, version 1.5.3*

This is a great app! Easy to use and makes buying/selling books super easy!

### 5/5 — Amazing App!!!

*2020-02-11, version 1.0*

These guys did something special. Finally a book app that can capture the front cover for all the Non-ISBNs. This is a must have for those thrifting.
