Waste of money
Needs Improvement
Response from developer
I'm sorry to hear that you've experienced issues leveling some of your books. There are a number of different reasons why QuickScan may not identify the book you are scanning, even though it connects to online sources for AR and Lexile information. QuickScan utilizes a number of different sources to identify the title of the book by the barcode that you scan, but some publishing houses issue many barcodes for the same title and they are not all listed in the AR database (while the title of the book may be). If it can’t find the barcode in the AR database, then it will make several attempts to identify the title of the book and then search AR based on the title and author. Still, there are times where this does not properly identify the book you are scanning. I am constantly trying to improve QuickScan, so I would really appreciate it if you would send me (help@ifthendev.com) the title and author of the books that aren’t working along with a picture of the barcode that you are scanning. This will help me do some research and see if there are additional improvements that can be implemented. One thing that I’ve noticed is that some books will have a second barcode inside the front cover of the book. This barcode typically works better than the one on the back of the book. As far as the limited number of scans in the free version, only successfully identified books count towards the daily limit. QuickScan scans and positively identifies thousands of books per day, and it does work for the vast majority of books that our users scan. With that being said, I am constantly trying to improve identification and accuracy, so I would really appreciate you sending along additional information to me so I can continue to improve.
Not fast or consistent
Just ok

Thank you for using QuickScan and for trying the app. I'm glad to hear that you like the information that is provided when you scan books. QuickScan was designed to be a quick, light-weight ISBN scanner to provide instant book leveling information, and I'm glad to hear that it is meeting those promises. I will take your feedback into account as I evaluate features for future versions.

Works great but the description is misleading
Response from developer
Thank you for using QuickScan. I'm glad to hear that it works great for you. I want the description to be clear and I am not trying to mislead anyone. As you say, anyone can use QuickScan for no fee for a limited number of scans per day forever. There are never any ads, your information is not tracked, uploaded anywhere, or sold. For users who require a higher number of scans per day, QuickScan does offer unlimited scanning for a monthly or annual subscription, or a one-time fee. If someone subscribes and then cancels, they are still able to use QuickScan daily for a small number of scans. If you have any questions, have additional feedback, or would like to discuss this in more detail, please email help@ifthendev.com and I'd be happy to discuss this further.

GREAT leveling app!!!
Great app

Create a Library?
Response from developer
Thank you for using QuickScan and for leaving feedback. QuickScan was designed to be very fast and efficient at leveling books. If you are interested in an app that scans and saves the book into a library, I recommend you look at another app that we've made called BookScanner Book Leveler. This app was designed to level books and store them. It's been on the App Store for more than a decade and is highly rated. If you have any questions, or would like more details, please email help@ifthendev.com.
