### 1/5 — Wants all my personal photos and crashes

*2023-08-31*

I bought Teolaegi and tried to use the AR to hear the recording. The app demands access to ALL of my photos in my gallery, downloaded them, and then when I tried to use the app, it just crashed and keeps crashing. I still can’t hear the message, and I’m worried about my personal photos being uploaded somewhere that I did not want to authorize. When I hit the button, I didn’t think it would actually download my photos. Do better SM! You do NOT need my personal photos, and you need to make sure that if I buy something, I can use the tech promised for what I bought.

### 1/5 — Not downloading

*2023-02-21, version 2.0.5*

It isn’t opening and getting stuck at 153-154 and totally not opening im tired of waiting this app doesn’t even works

### 1/5 — Broke

*2022-12-26, version 1.2.7*

I downloaded it to see all the ar cards i have and i can’t even scan a card let alone search a group SM do better

### 1/5 — Takes too long to load

*2022-11-13, version 1.2.7*

Literally have been trying to download the sticker ar pc thing but it’s been stuck at 50% for so long. Tried many different times and it still does the same thing

### 1/5 — 无语

*2022-06-30, version 1.2.2*

辣酱资源包下载到6%就再也不动了 下载了六个小时都没有 其他都能下载 服了

### 1/5 — only works for album photocards

*2022-05-05, version 1.2.2*

I have bought many ar clip cards and they seem to only work in albums and not in md. for example, it worked perfectly fine for hot sauce and sticker, but it didn’t work for nct dream cinema or wayv’s 3rd year anniversary. nct dream’s hot summer dream ar clip worked, but any md released after that doesn’t work. I really hope that this gets fixed soon, I always delete the app and try it again but it never. works.
