### 5/5 — Is this abandoware now?

*2026-04-25, version 10.4.0*

It's still lvl capped at 40

### 3/5 — very confused

*2025-06-30, version 10.4.0*

the app can't scan my screenshots except for two and I don't know why all of my screenshots are like the two that it did scan please help me  I sent you one of the screenshots that it couldn't scan

### 3/5 — Great app, but needs updated

*2024-02-05, version 10.4.0*

This was an awesome app until it stopped working for me. This needs to be updated/debugged by the creator.

I’ve been dealing with this issue for the past 4 months at least. 
Every time I try to upload a Pokémon screenshot, it does one of two things: pops up saying it cannot read the photo at all, or it reads it (partly) then asks me to confirm the CP, so I do, but then it just keeps popping back up on loop. It does not accept the CP info(even though correct) & just continues to glitch & pop back up asking for the CP. 

Please fix it! Thanks

### 1/5 — Inop

*2023-06-13, version 10.4.0*

Too bad, it would have been handy.

### 1/5 — False iv reader

*2022-10-08, version 10.4.0*

This app is trash and does nothing. Every time you screenshot and input it asks to send to developer. Useless app and waste of time do not download!

### 1/5 — Unable to select level above 40

*2022-07-17, version 10.4.0*

Does not let me select my trainer level above level 40

### 1/5 — Not working

*2022-07-10*

Doesnt recognise pokemon. Useless app :(

### 1/5 — Abandonware

*2022-02-26, version 10.4.0*

As others have said, this hasn’t been updated in a couple years - it doesn’t recognize a number of current Pokémon and functionality/IAPs are drifting towards broken. The app is really cool when it works, though. 

Hopefully the developer returns or pulls the app.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2022-01-23, version 10.4.0*

As everyone else said, no longer works. Doesn't recognize a single screenshot, so I'll have to give it a 1 star. Can't have non-functional applications on the app store

### 1/5 — It doesn’t seem to work well can’t get all my Pokémon loaded

*2022-01-23, version 10.4.0*

I am disappointed.
