Decent

Sometimes the alerts trigger but if I go to the store or call minutes after the alert the info in generally wrong or doesn’t have them on the floor yet. So I don’t think you can justify charging for it. It’s correct every once in a while but very rarely unfortunately will not be renewing.

Meh

App doesn’t work half the time. If you click a notification it just sits on a loading screen till you restart app. And stock seems to be wrong 95% of the time and most stores don’t even work

Decent app. Have to pay to benefit

Best features behind a pay wall. In stock feature somewhat helpful

Too many bugs

Payed for the premium and I did get one drop but the heads up comes as the drop is happening so most of the time the bots already get everything. Also there is an unknown long load time every time you want to get in the app and it logs you every once in a while. So even if you catch the notification right as it happens, it takes a minute to load and another to log in. Fix this stuff and give notifications earlier and it would be a great app.

Awful app…. So glad I didn’t pay

I tried this app and no luck whatsoever. With the time it took for me going to 4 Walgreens that it said had stock but managers said they didn’t… I ended up waiting in line at Walmart for a restock and actually got product.
Don’t waste your time. Scan TCG alert

Alerts lead to nowhere

Shouldn’t be charging yet. Alerts lead to no where and not many stores accounted for

No updates on restock

It’ll tell you they have 16 in stock or in stock in general at these locations but they don’t update it at all. I wasted my time driving to these places because no one had them

VERYYY buggy app

Always logs me out, then I get random notifications and I click it and it goes away, so notifications system doesn’t work, needs HEAVY improvements

TRASH

App sucks. I paid for the upgraded version and it doesn’t even show any of the alerts outside of a notification I get. And it says to upgrade to see them…. I did upgrade Wyatt do you mean… app sucks.

Ripoff

You pay for a monthly subscription but if you cancel anytime after the first use the app locks you out and wants you to renew again. I paid for a month and apple shows my subscription going until mid September. Paying for something I can’t use

Help?

Can’t find a help email anywhere. This is cute but you can’t seriously be charging yet for this. The retailers you track are so limited. But I’ll be away from my phone for 5 minutes and come back to 15 alerts for dollar generals or Walgreens but then I click on a push notification and there’s nothing in the app. Also you only let me scroll the last 10 or 15 alerts but I saw an ascended ex box alert pop up and now it’s gone. What gives. Fix this up then you can justify charging.

Might be okay for Pokémon?

The app doesn’t actually tell you if anything is in stock - only if there is a restock supposed to happen or something? It also is telling me about stores that don’t exist in my area… and it asks which cards you’re looking for, but doesn’t actually filter that information. I’m not interested in Pokémon, one piece, or lorcana - but that’s essentially the only thing that shows up on my feed.

Might be cool if I cared about those games? Even then, it doesn’t actually seem to give me any information; garbage app so far. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Can’t even boot into the app??

Was a bit wonky yesterday when I first downloaded it, fine nothing crazy. The next day I’m logged out and prompted to log in over and over again. Eventually “something went wrong(500)” features are unpolished and hidden behind a paywall that makes this app usable.

Scam

Does not work. Don’t waste your time. I went to three different stores that said there was stock on the app, and there was none at any of them. I talked to employees and they said there hasn’t been stock for a while.

Response from developer

Hello! For highly desired products, inventory can sell out extremely quickly, meaning a product may no longer be available by the time you arrive at the store. Stock cannot be guaranteed by the app, and we update the information as frequently as possible. Our success rate is quite high when users act quickly after an alert.

Doesn’t work well. AI slop

App looks horrible and most the stock checkers don’t even work

Response from developer

Hi! Just to clarify, this app is built and maintained by real engineers, no AI involved. We've tested all the stock checkers and they're working as of today. If you're seeing one that's broken, please email us with the specific item/store so we can fix it fast. Thank you!

Sounds cool, but it’s behind a paywall

It’s kind of crazy I can’t even get to the app itself without having to go behind a paywall of sorts. I was excited abt this because I’m really new to card collecting and my siblings love ripping packs but I’m going to find something else.

Response from developer

Hey! We're always listening to the community, and we plan on having free features soon as well! Stay tuned!

Love the live feed !!

App has a feed to see what has restocked near you. Scored some ascended 2pks from Walgreens with it 🔥

Local scanner doesn’t work

The local scanner feature doesn’t work at all. It’s just alerts that you could get from a free discord. Would be good if it worked though.

Response from developer

Hey! The app had some temporary downtime to upgrade the scanners. They are all working great now! Thank you for your patience, and if you have any questions you can always contact us at help@snagalerts.com!
