Several stamp unidentified, continued with more, still unidentified. I Sent a request to Apple and they didn’t see a reason for refund. Who would think that an app in the Apple Store wouldn’t work as advertised? Imagine that… ### 1/5 — Garbage *2024-11-07, version 2.1* Don’t waste your money identified 0 of 10 for me ### 1/5 — Too much advertising *2024-10-07, version 2.1* Never got the app working. Just kept going from one ad to another. Doesn’t appear to be a free app. ### 1/5 — Patrick *2024-10-04, version 2.1* Does not identify anything but seems to want to sell a random selection of stamps. Annoying waste of time. ### 1/5 — Help *2024-09-22, version 2.1* My mother left me a nice selection of stamps I tried over 30 different stamps and I got nothing Just thrown away a years money . Gutted ### 1/5 — WASTE OF MONEY *2024-09-16, version 2.1* Does not identify anything, can find the same information on Google for free! ABSOLUTE SCAM!! ### 1/5 — Awful *2024-08-03, version 2.1* App can’t seem to even get close to properly identifying stamps. ### 1/5 — Do not buy !!!! *2024-06-17, version 1.3* The pictures shown are false advertising!! You cannot organize your collection like shown in the preview. The app cannot identify basic USA stamps, forget other countries. Out of 100 stamps, it was able to identify 11. The only 3 options this app has is 1) to search, which it does not do accurately - you have to type in a description. Again, the search did not work EVER for me. 2) upload/take a photo and hope it can identify it. Again, it was able to identify 11/100 3) look at your collection, which is the order in which you uploaded your photos. You cannot organize any of the photos, you cannot create folders or arrange your photos. I paid for the lifetime access. I will continue to fight this until I get a refund. I am so disappointed. How does Apple allow scammers to operate on here? ### 1/5 — Stamp snap *2024-04-01* I feel this program was worthless and it wasn’t clear like the other ones by manufacturer that it was not a free trial I I’m hoping I will get my money back as I took the app off within five minutes all the other CoinSnap NoteSnap are free trials but should we may clear more at the App Store ### 1/5 — Can’t identify stamps, not even country *2024-03-09, version 1.0* What a waste of time. Can’t identify most basic stamps, can’t even get the country correct ### 1/5 — Unfortunately terrible *2024-03-03* I have been wanting a stamp app to find out how much my stamps are worth but I can’t. this is the 57 app and I have wasted 7hr straight of my life. You also have to pay for info with this app all you get is the name and a small photo Don’t wast your time trying to find an app for stamps ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Absolute trash *2025-02-26, version 3.2* So many ads, doesn’t give descriptions or value unless you pay an absurd amount of money. DON’T DOWNLOAD!!! Also, as I said, nothing happens if you don’t pay an absurd price. Don’t give them money instead, use Stamp identifier. ### 1/5 — Horrible *2025-02-23, version 3.2* It pops up ads every time you click on anything. Super annoying!!! ### 1/5 — Nobody home *2025-02-08, version 3.2* Bought it , I want a refund and there’s nobody to talk to. This is stoopid ### 1/5 — Absolute trash *2025-01-02* So many ads, doesn’t give descriptions or value unless you pay an absurd amount of money. DON’T DOWNLOAD!!! **Developer response:** Hi, Please purchase premium package to experience the application comfortably. ### 1/5 — Fraud *2024-12-26* This is a fake app 😡 just paid for it 5 munutes ago Please cancel my subscription, or will report to apple **Developer response:** Hi, Please purchase premium package to experience the application comfortably. ### 1/5 — Unusable on iPad *2024-12-22, version 3.0* Way too many ads are blocking the trial of this app and it is impossible to scan a stamp as the image seen on screen is opposite to the direction of the camera. It could not detect an American stamp. Avoid. ### 1/5 — The worst app ever *2024-12-21, version 3.0* DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. When you try to scan a stamp, it gives you about 5 full screen ads that are each 15 seconds. Then, it doesn’t even tell you what the stamp is and leaves it blank. This is a terrible app to get people to pay money, you can’t use this for free. ### 1/5 — Frustrating *2024-11-30, version 3.0* To many useless adds ### 1/5 — Update destroyed the best identifier *2024-11-26, version 3.0* What were you thinking? You had the best stamp identifier app with years, SG number and so on. Now you turned it into an eBay sales extension. That is not what I paid for. Very disappointed and I want my money back. ### 1/5 — Don’t bother. *2024-11-23, version 2.1* A sheer waste of time. After going through loads of ads to value the first stamp, no valuation given. Deleted the app right away. ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cool app *2024-12-11, version 3.0* I love the attempts to make a true stamp Id like i have to give it 5 stars because there is so much involved ya gotta appreciate the heart put into this.. best app especially up against its competitors ### 3/5 — It’s a good idea *2025-02-26, version 3.2* Unfortunately despite being an excellent idea 💡 and I’m sure someone will make the perfect app. That can identify and scan without resorting to this slow process of scanning stamp by stamp?! And it can’t fit a photo of the stamp inside that frame I am hoping you will consider fixing the glitch and add more features ### 2/5 — Very poor *2024-05-30, version 1.3* Doesn’t identify anything much.
