Deceptive

App is presented as free. It requires you to create an account (sharing your personal info) BEFORE you learn that only the first 5 scans are free and then you have to “upgrade”

Doesn’t work

It says ready to scan, but doesn’t give me the option to scan

Onboarding is a hot mess

Leaders, the Onboarding abandonment rate has to be job one.

Abandoned Ambitious and Brilliant App 😟

Did the developer sell-out to the Soylent Green Globalists?

Not useful unless you pay

This app only gives you 5 free scans a month, and sometimes takes multiple scans for one item.

I would go with the Bobby approved app instead, unlimited free scans.
