### 3/5 — It doesn’t work anymore.

*2021-11-24, version 1.4*

I give it three stars because I don’t want this app to be marked as it doesn’t work. I think that the website was removed or changed so it will not work. Please fix!

### 1/5 — Pathetic

*2015-01-27, version 1.2*

As a small business, scanning and keeping an inventory should be simple. This is is absolutely rubbish, it's too simple and doesn't help. Another pointless app

### 3/5 — This could be a 5star app

*2014-12-05, version 1.2*

I really like this scanner. It is quick and simple to use. If it didn't crash so often I'd give 5 stars

### 1/5 — SLOW!  Not usable

*2014-10-15, version 1.2*

Too slow to make this a practical App. Also didn't like having to register the App before I could even try it out.

### 2/5 — Not for everyone

*2014-04-16, version 1.2*

No QR code support. Killed my background music, so not too intuitive. Might be good for people still using barcodes.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2014-01-20, version 1.2*

Says I need to be connected to the internet and I am.  :(

### 1/5 — Crash-ier Live

*2013-07-08, version 1.2*

This app doesn't even open. Just sits on the startup picture forever! It should be called Crash-ier Live ;)

### 2/5 — Need alphabetical order

*2013-06-23, version 1.2*

It seems like a great app idea but needs work. It's very slow and the new batches need names or categories or alphabetical order to keep your inventory organized.

### 2/5 — 🐌

*2013-04-29, version 1.2*

Simple but So slow I could fall asleep
Don't see the need to work through an account it just uses bandwidth and slows the process (tested on IPhone 5 4G-LTE)

### 1/5 — Even new logins 'already exist'. Rubbish

*2013-01-13, version 1.2*

Keep trying to log in to use app for the first time and continually told on registering that email has already been used. Used several business and personal accounts but all result in the same message and none I have used for this app. I'd love to be able to review this app, the features sound great, but if it won't let me register with any of my 6 email addresses tried something tells me the rest of the experience (if I could get to it!) would also just have a lot of bugs. Such a shame.

### 3/5 — Kinda ok

*2012-12-08, version 1.2*

I love that it when scanned it has the name and price of the item but what it needs is to automatically put an item down as 2 when you have 2 of the same item instead of listing them separate and to have items listed alphabetically would be great also a search bat to search for items instead of scrolling through all inventory

### 1/5 — Extremely slow

*2012-11-27, version 1.2*

First use it didn't work, once it scanned an item it took forever to save.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work on iPhone 5

*2012-11-09, version 1.2*

Tried using this & just hung at startup screen!  :-(

### 3/5 — Needs update

*2012-10-27, version 1.2*

App is excellent for home base business it would be nice if you could name your batches or have categories

### 1/5 — Retail inventory

*2012-09-21, version 1.2*

It worked for a few days; now it won't scan anything.  I thought maybe it needs an update but nothing is showing for an update.

### 4/5 — Love this app!

*2012-07-05, version 1.2*

This app has helped me SO much to keep up with my inventory for my home based business. Now when a customer asks me if I have something on hand I can just look at this app on my phone. It even scanned the bar codes on the product, which surprised me since they aren't normal bar codes like you find on your daily items at the store. Most if the time it even filled in the name when I scanned the item! My only request is that I wish they would make it do you can sort your inventory list by alphabetical order.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work for me

*2012-06-27, version 1.2*

Does not scan bar codes correctly. When I try to scan yarn labels it keeps coming up desitin baby....  What gives?

### 1/5 — Annoying and not worth my time.

*2017-02-24, version 1.4*

Had to log in every time, despite choosing to stay logged in. I was expecting to see my items in a list, not the case.

### 1/5 — Inventory app review

*2016-08-09, version 1.4*

I expected more since it scans the product that it would generate the name for me but I still have to enter that myself. I also thought that since it asked for the price and cost, it would generate the profit but it does not. I also have "keep me logged in" checked, but I still have to login every single time. The only positive thing that I have to say is that it prevents me from having to start up my laptop every time I want to see what I have in stock. It's very basic

### 1/5 — Can't register type of business

*2016-05-13, version 1.2*

Like others, I cannot select type of business in registration so I am unable to use the app.

### 1/5 — Cant even try it

*2016-03-23, version 1.2*

You have to name your business, and pick a type (retail, etc) to use the app. I am unable to select the type due to an app error so I can't even use it. Deleted, and looking for another.

### 1/5 — Should have read the reviews

*2016-01-20, version 1.2*

Like many others I can't select a business type to register so I won't be able to use this app.

### 1/5 — Can't register

*2015-12-20, version 1.2*

Can't register or select business under the list.  👎

### 1/5 — Cannot register!

*2015-11-10, version 1.2*

Will not let me pick a business type which you need to in order to register. Will be looking for a new app

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2015-11-05, version 1.2*

After downloading it won't let me register to use🤔

### 1/5 — Don't waste your time

*2015-07-20*

Complete rubbish.  Scanner doesn't work, comes up with Diaper Rash Cream for every barcode scanner!!  App is poorly designed and not very functional.  Better to just use pen and paper than this app!

### 1/5 — Not working

*2015-01-29, version 1.2*

Wasting time I installed it on my iPhone 4s and not working!!

### 5/5 — Very good

*2012-06-10, version 1.2*

Very helpful. Made my work very easy.      
One suggestion, give us an ability to organize scan items in the list section.

### 5/5 — Great!

*2012-02-17, version 1.1*

This app made counting my inventory an easy process.
Love it!

A++

### 5/5 — Love it

*2012-01-08, version 1.1*

I use this app for our small bizz collecting serial numbers of consoles.
I spent ages trawling the net for an app like this :-)

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2011-11-20, version 1.1*

As an independent personal trainer, I am always stocking supplements and selling them to my clients.  This makes tracking and managing my inventory super easy!  I love this app.

I hope they integrate it with Square in the next Rev!

### 5/5 — Exactly!!!

*2011-09-13, version 1.1*

Nothing extra... simple and usefyl as it is.

### 5/5 — Works great.

*2011-06-17, version 1.1*

Nice support for scanning with redlaser and linea pro. 

Very nice point of sale integration with Cashier Live.

### 5/5 — What I was looking for

*2011-06-13, version 1.1*

Glad I found this app, it's exactly what I was looking for. Just saved me a ton of time at my boutique. 

There's a couple little things that bothered me, so I sent an email to the support and they said they'd work on it for an update.

4 stars for now, hopefully a 5 after the next update!

### 4/5 — Simple yet sufficient

*2016-06-22, version 1.4*

I really liked it. If you have a small convenience store where you want to do inventory without needing to check each items name thanks to barcode scanning, and email excel sheet to any email, this app is perfect. The only thing they need to fix is the "remember credentials" option as it is not working. Thats why i put 4 star otherwise it is 5.

### 4/5 — Scentsy Consultant

*2014-04-24, version 1.2*

App works great to keep track of my scentsy items... Would like it if we could edit the titles of the scans groups instead of it just having the date created/ date updated!! (Need to have categories)

Would be great if items were placed in alphabetical order

### 4/5 — Great little app

*2013-03-04, version 1.2*

Works great, ideal for keeping track of barcodes and serial nos. 

My only ask would be for a longer description and possibly a notes field. 4*
