Irresponsible company. 2 lines means negative!
This is such an irresponsible and dangerous idea. They don’t offer any instructions or guidance outside of the app. If you’ve taken a bunch of at home tests before you might well decide to ignore the app and just use it yourself. If you do this you will almost certainly get a false positive. This test has 2 control lines instead of the normal 1 control line. 2 lines means negative and 3 lines means positive. And they don’t tell you this anywhere! It’s impossible to know that this is true. My friend started sleeping in the same room as another friend who had COVID because after taking this test and seeing 2 lines she thought she was infected. She caught COVID from that friend as a direct result of this company’s irresponsibility

Making something so simple incredibly difficult
I truly do not understand why in order to take an at home COVID test; I must download an app, register for an account, have that app check my surroundings to make sure I’m in a well lit area???, go through a million pages of instructions on said app, and then once I complete the process I CANNOT LEAVE THE APP FOR 20 MINUTES, and if I do, then I won’t know my results and will need to take another test???????? OR! If I am distracted and miss the window, then the test is no longer legible and I will have to take another test??????? Riddle me this, why do you provide a customer support number to call in these instances if all your customer support can say is “I’m so sorry I can’t help you” ?????? It’s like, “uh okay, sorry to bother you????”
Additionally, you make it so the results cannot be understood unless scanned with the phone camera via the app. You are the only COVID test I have experienced were TWO LINES MEANS NEGATIVE, BUT NOT ALWAYS?????
You all make at home COVID testing WAY harder than it actually is.

Exploitative, Dangerous, Unnecessary.
The only COVID test that needs an app. For that reason alone, this app may cost many their lives. Not everyone has access to WiFi/an application based device. Making it a requirement for a crucially important test in a pandemic is reckless at best, a humanitarian crime at worst.
My father is severely immunosuppressed. He just got back from his second stem cell transplant battling leukemia. If I am going to see him, I PCR beforehand, and take rapid tests every day. Today I get there, a place with no Internet, with these tests, and am unable to qualify myself to render the care my father needs to survive because I can’t test for COVID. I can’t test because this pain of a company is so narcissistic.
Get over yourselves. Make the app accessible, not profitable. You’re sick— and not the kind that can be detected by a Scanwell test.

Too tedious
I would not recommend this test. The steps are too drawn out and made to seem much more troublesome than they need to be. Also the fact that you need a smart phone makes it useless to anyone who isn’t tech savvy or lacks these types of devices. Having to wait for the phone app to read my result is another unnecessary step. Not being able to close out of the app was annoying as I needed to make a phone call and needed to use another phone out of fear that I’d lose connection with the app. It took way too long to see obtain the results.
There are many simpler tests that will give an expeditious and accurate reading without all this extra work. Do not recommend.

This is the dumbest way to test for Covid
This is literally the first time I have ever writ ten a review of an app, and I just want to say that this is by far the worst Covid test o have ever used. Imagine you have found yourself in the unfortunate position of having to test for Covid, and somehow this test is the only one you can find to buy in your area. Now you have to allow this company to do whatever they want with your personal information, and spend an extra 20 minutes of your life trying to test for a process that does require a smart phone and use that piece of technology to do an otherwise routine task and have it take much longer than it should have. Terrible app and deployment of a Covid test.
