### 1/5 — Broken

*2024-12-31, version 2.4.2*

Used to be good, but no longer works. Always get the message that there is no data available for this registration.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-12-22, version 2.4.2*

Doesn’t work just a message saying no data available, no explanation as to what happened but worked at first, very frustrating to lose all the stored registrations

### 1/5 — Not working

*2022-02-11*

Used to work well, but now get message “Sorry no data is available for this registration”. I’ve tried it on my own cars whose registrations and MOT data I know, but receive the same error message

### 2/5 — No data coming through at the moment

*2022-01-15, version 2.0*

Worked fine for years but recently I get a Mo data available “ message.  Tried reinstalling but no luck.

### 3/5 — Great app but crashes most of the time on mileage

*2019-11-25, version 2.0*

Very useful go to app, I’d pay £1 to get rid of the ads if you offered that.

Recently the crashing has gotten worse but only on the mileage, on an iPhone 8 running the latest iOS.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-04-26, version 1.7.8*

Shuts down soon as you put a REG in

### 1/5 — Does not work!

*2018-04-22, version 1.7.8*

As with most other reviews I will confirm the app does not work. Five vehicle checks and everyone crashed! Now removed from my system.

### 1/5 — Update required

*2018-04-21, version 1.7.8*

This was a good app for collating free info from a few websites in one hit.
Sadly now crashes when the ads load.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2017-07-31, version 1.6.4*

Crashes at every attempt!  Hopeless!

### 1/5 — Worst app ever

*2016-11-16, version 1.0*

Agree with Barandrew, same details I received from the first two checks I did on my own cars that I know are both taxed and MoT'ed, would give no stars if I could
