### 1/5 — 5,99€

*2026-09-09*

Für das gebotene sind 5,99€ zu viel, weil wenn man ein Kennzeichen unter Weltweit eingibt, wird es als nicht existent angegeben oder in seltenen Fällen falsch zu geordnet. Immerhin funktionieren die bundesweiten Kennzeichen

### 1/5 — Abzocke

*2026-08-29*

Man muss Geld bezahlen um mehr als 30 Kennzeichen zu sammeln

### 5/5 — Bitte nachprüfen

*2026-08-16*

Frankreich mehrere Nummernschilder mit 00 und 99 gesehen, gibt es in der App jedoch nicht

**Developer response:** Hi, vielen Dank für die Bewertung. Bei französischen Kennzeichen ist die kleine Zahl unten rechts im blauen Streifen relevant. 00 und 99 sollte dort auf regulären Kennzeichen nicht vorkommen. Ich werde bei Gelegenheit noch Hinweise einfügen, wie insbesondere ausländische Kennzeichen zu lesen und einzutragen sind.

### 4/5 — Gute App um die Kennzeichen im Dach Raum einzutragen.

*2026-07-20*

Eine tolle App und die Kennzeichen zu erfassen, alles ist schnell und und übersichtlich auszufüllen. Was aber noch fehlt sind weitere Länder wie Italien oder komplett Europa. Dies würde mir noch fehlen.

**Developer response:** Hi, vielen Dank für die lobenden Worte. Weitere Länder werden nach und nach hinzugefügt sodass im Laufe des Jahres alle relevanten europäischen Länder verfügbar sein sollten.

### 5/5 — Fehlendes Kennzeichen

*2026-05-06*

Kennzeichem DT - Detmold (NRW) fehlt auf der Liste 😊

**Developer response:** Hi, danke für den Hinweis und die Bewertung. Tatsächlich, DT ist ja mit LE gerade erst wiedereingeführt worden. Ich werde die Kennzeichen direkt mit der nächsten Version 1.0.2 einfügen.

### 4/5 — Ganz gut

*2026-04-26*

Die App ist sehr übersichtlich und alles in allem sehr gut. Jedoch erkennt die App Kennzeichen wie FÜ oder NÖ nicht. Dies ist ein wenig schade.

**Developer response:** Hi, vielen Dank für die Bewertung. Sorry für den Bug mit den Umlauten. Dieser ist nun in Version 1.0.1 behoben!

### 3/5 — Kennzeichen ä/ö/ü

*2026-04-25*

Kennzeichen mit ä/ö/ü werden nicht angenommen

**Developer response:** Hi, vielen Dank für die Bewertung. Sorry für den Bug mit den Umlauten. Dieser ist nun in Version 1.0.1 behoben!
