### 3/5 — It was great at one time

*2026-07-19*

We first downloaded this app a year ago. It was great and we got some scans of my son’s Lego collection the time and we were able to get instructions to build cool cars and other designs but recently we tried to get better scans of his Lego collection and the AI software that Pileometer is using now is much worse than it used to be in the past now allows no overlapping when before I just take a picture of his giant pile of Legos and it didn’t throw me a roadblocking error message when interpreting. Makes the app unusable to us now.

### 2/5 — Expensive, inaccurate, and cumbersome

*2026-07-02, version 2.2.3*

The scans don’t identify the parts accurately, even when following instructions, leading to misleading searches for parts during build time. For what this costs, it is a complete disappointment.

### 3/5 — Can’t change the mode.

*2026-06-05*

For some reason when I chose digitize my collection now it is stuck in there and api can’t use the other features except the builds. Almost 4 just needs to have that bug fixed.

### 4/5 — Еееее

*2026-02-06*

Очень сложно делать из Лего

### 3/5 — Awesome I love it

*2026-01-22*

Dude I don’t know what y’all are talking about this app is absolutely amazing I am gonna be able to use it to organize my Legos and stuff thank you so much for making this masterpiece it’s like brick it but absolutely better

**Developer response:** A huge thank you for this amazing feedback! It absolutely makes our day. You'd help us out tremendously if you could leave us a 5-star review. It means the world to us!

### 3/5 — Einzige Möglichkeit zu sortieren

*2025-11-22*

Es ist im Großen und Ganzen immer noch sehr aufwändig, die Steine zu sortieren. Nach dem Scannen muss nachgearbeitet werden und das ist schon sehr zeitaufwändig. Habe um die 20.000 Steine und muss sie in kleinen Häppchen aufwändig sortieren.

**Developer response:** What kind of issues did you come across? Let our team know at team@brickit.app—any details you can share will help us get it sorted!

### 2/5 — Cool concept but I’ve got some issues with it

*2025-11-05*

No option to deselect incorrectly scanned pieces
The app itself crashes my phone every time I try to use a scan please try to fix this issue this is the only app I’ve used Thats ever crashed my phone not to mention how hot it gets
I cant use this app in its current state please try to fix it

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! Please email us at team@brickit.app with the details. We'll take a close look and get it fixed right away.

### 4/5 — Does exactly what it says

*2025-11-02*

Does exactly what the description says. Very helpful if you have a box of chaos and want to make sets from it. Easy app to use as well.

### 3/5 — Stuff is wrong

*2025-10-28*

It isn’t ever working and only scans a quarter of my pieces fix it or else I give bad review that’s how bad it’s!!!!!

**Developer response:** Could you tell us what kind of trouble you ran into? Sending the details to team@brickit.app would be a huge help for our team! Thanks in advance!

### 3/5 — Glitchy and has a Bad Free Cap

*2025-07-03*

I’ve had the app since i saw an ad for it it late last year, and thought it would be helpful for me since I’ve got a plethora of tubs all with over 10k bricks in them. I had to take a break from scanning for a while due to the issue of it crashing every time it would complete a scan. Along with crashing, a large number of parts that have been put into rotation in like the last 3 years aren’t listed yet, which i know is because the app isn’t fully up to date on the full Lego catalog, but it’s still a pain to deal with. Back to my original point; I had to take a break from scanning the first of like 7 whole tubs, but when i made my 38th scan, it stopped mid scan to say i reached the free cap. I don’t remember the app ever offering a subscription last November through this March, so to say i was disappointed is an understatement. I understand that the developers need profit somehow, but this just felt like the rug was pulled from right under my feet. Other than that, the app is pretty good for what it is.

### 4/5 — Pro is too expensive for the value

*2025-06-30*

Otherwise a great app, other than how you have to place all you bricks apart and facing up.

*2026-07-19, version 2.2.3*

when I scan it, it says error please try again and I sorted it and I did it to my entire Lego box that does it work at all so do not get this app

### 1/5 — Game Lego

*2026-04-05*

Это абсолютно не честно! Да, написано: встроенные покупки. На самом деле полностью платное приложение! Да за такие деньги лучше набор Лего купить!

**Developer response:** You absolutely don't need a subscription to use Brickit! We have a fully functional free version — no time limits, no catch. We really hope you'll give it a try and fall in love with building. Join our creative community of LEGO lovers!

### 1/5 — Money hungry

### 1/5 — Great idea but no realization.

*2025-11-02*

Great idea but the app is super glitchy (I have IPhone 15 Pro). Had this app for two days but on a third it fully stopped working. Does not open at all, reinstalling didn’t help. 
Also, the search for your scanned pieces by name does not work, you have to type brick number - only in this way it shows you something.

And for some reason when you look at design sets it only tells you the shape of the piece but not the color, which makes it pointless to mark the color of scanned pieces. I have a bag of only yellow pieces but it shows that I can build a castle that made from  grey pieces.

**Developer response:** Oh no, sorry you're having trouble! We're on it and can help figure this out. Just pop us an email at team@brickit.app, and we'll dive into the details. Cheers!

### 1/5 — Question

*2025-10-17, version 2.2.1*

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2025-10-05*

App keeps crashing every time I go to open the camera to scan

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! Do you mind helping us figuring out what’s going wrong by sharing the details at team@brickit.app? We’ll take a look to see how the issue can be resolved!

### 1/5 — Not good!

*2025-08-02*

I tried an app first the name was brick it and it was charging a lot of money so I thought to look for another app and then I find this first. Everything seems fine then comes to scanning part. I at least try to scan it 10 times and it said the picture not good enough and it said the lighting was too high or sometimes too low and then it was like no overlapping pieces and it took me like 20 minutes to sort it all out very very difficult to scan. I hope they could do something about it like the people with lots of pieces

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear you’re experiencing an issue. Our support team can take a look into the details to find a solution. Can you please contact us at team@brickit.app? Thank you!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-28*

It’s really functional people seem to say it’s cutting off but for some reason it’s not cutting off with me so that’s a dub and it has some parts missing but I wish it had those, but I’ll let it slide and also please add 99009c01 because these two parts are literally impossible to get apart (these parts have been connected 10 years and above all of that these parts are not meant to disconnect or else you’re going to break one of the pieces and weaken it other) and also these people stating that like there’s not enough builds, can you make it so you can add builds or I think it does that with never mind ignore all the people. It says it crashes cause it doesn’t.

### 5/5 — My Review 5 Stars

*2026-03-13, version 2.2.3*

One of the best apps I’ve ever found, truly helpful to finally get all my bricks sorted, very convenient

### 5/5 — Great app plus a developer suggestion

*2026-03-06*

Really cool way to figure out what can be done with bulk legos. Little tedious to do, but, will pay off with build suggestions. I would like to see a way to request “unidentifiable” bricks to be added to the catalog. Allow users to provide several images or a detail “scan” of these unidentifiable bricks, then use those to add to the catalog. Im finding that lego items from technic or aimed towards smaller kids with more custom shapes have more missing elements.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-12-22, version 2.2.3*

It is great for building Lego builds

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-11-15*

Very good

### 5/5 — Сдеалайте рускую версию

*2025-11-05*

Сделайте русскую версию!!!!!!!

### 5/5 — I just can’t believe how good this app it’s probably the best app ever I love it

*2025-09-01*

0 star I hate this app 

(Edited I love this app)

### 5/5 — Very helpful, yet some flaws

*2025-06-01*

This is a very good app, where you can keep a inventory of legos, and build ideas on the app. The scanner works very well, although the catalogue very well should be expanded, and the scanning quality can be improved.  But there are some flaws. As of version 2, whenever I open a build idea, it just shows me a grey screen, and doesn’t open. But if I open an idea from my filter options it does work. And with that, even though I have a piece catalogued in the app, it says that it is missing. I hope that this will be fixed, and that the developers at bricket will make this app the best it can possibly be.

### 5/5 — You have to get this app

*2025-05-26, version 1.6.3*

All Lego lovers need to get it

### 5/5 — Lo mejor

*2025-05-14, version 1.6.3*

La mejor aplicación lego
