I could only figure out of one of my crystals where before it started charging for a subscription, also, when it fugured out what my rock was, it was 100% wrong!! ### 1/5 — Worst gemstone identification software app *2023-06-02, version 1.6.9* 1 out of 5 times it identifies the right gemstone. It does not even have a broad catalog to identify from! I truly wasted my $39.95 on this one. Do not buy this software! ### 5/5 — Recommended this app to my friends    ​ *2023-05-26* Rock Identifier has truly exceeded my expectations.

I've used it on outdoor trips, and it always delivers accurate results ### 5/5 — accuracy is truly remarkable    ‌​ *2023-05-26* Rock Identifier is the best app I've ever used for rock identification. It has a bright and easy-to-use interface, just snap a photo and the result appears right in front of you. ### 5/5 — Truly an amazing app  ​ ​ *2023-05-26* The interface is clear and easy to use, I just need to take a photo of a rock and it instantly recognizes it. The accuracy of this app is truly astonishing ### 1/5 — Garbage. *2023-05-19, version 1.6.9* Won’t let me take a second picture ### 1/5 — Trash *2023-05-09, version 1.6.9* This is dumb that you have to pay a subscription to use the app. I got to do one photo then it wants me to sub. ### 5/5 — The best    ​ *2023-04-04* I love how easy it is to use this rock identifier app. It's simple yet highly effective, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in rocks‍​​‍​ ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Terrible app *2024-07-25, version 1.7.4* Made me pay before even opening the app. 3.99 A WEEK? I’ve found apps that are completely free and do way more. I might download again if made free, but overall a really bad app ### 1/5 — It sucked *2024-07-08, version 1.7.4* I tried to identify a cool rock that had dark blue in the middle and it said it was some kind of ruby or something like that and it was obviously wrong😔 Don’t buy this app And it costs money EVERY week ### 1/5 — Review *2024-06-09, version 1.6.9* Looking for a free. This is only a trial before money is required. No tx!! ### 1/5 — Here’s what you should do *2024-05-08, version 1.7.3* First reason 1 make it to where it is free because most people don’t get apps that are not free just like me I did I fose gold type rock and it said it was coral even though that’s was not what it was. Second reason 2 Please make a note of what you will do. AND DO NOT HACK PEOPLES PHONE BECAUSE READING THRU THESE AND SEEING I THINK THEY HACKED MY PHONE IS UNEXPECTEDLY ODD I find that weird.. Third reason 3 It did get the Opalite right but now the others please fix the app it’s not good to keep it where people whine about your app being bad ! Please do fix it I need a presentation at my school and I would really help for you to tell me the rocks and what they are used for please!😁 ### 1/5 — Very disappointed *2024-03-02, version 1.7.1* I’m trying the free version before I purchase and it would only let attempt to identify one rock and it was definitely incorrect! It will not even give me a chance to test it further. Will not be purchasing. ### 1/5 — $$$ *2024-02-01, version 1.7.1* Asks for money straight up like we are stupid… dont bother ### 1/5 — Not worth paying for! *2023-12-27, version 1.7.1* after paying for the subscription, the app won’t connect to my camera, and often simply exits the app all together. Very glitchy. Save your money ### 1/5 — Misidentification *2023-11-12, version 1.7.1* Said everything was quartz; it wasn’t ### 1/5 — Zero Stars *2023-10-25, version 1.7.1* It couldn’t identify legitimate sapphire. I wouldn’t waste my time with this app. Zero Stars. Oh. And I can’t even get my money back. 👎 ### 1/5 — Absolute rubbish *2023-10-21* If I could rate 0 I would! Downloaded with what was advertised as a free 7 day trial but was required to pay after the app “identified” 1 rock. It said Limestone. From an admittedly fuzzy picture but still wanted my money to try again. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Super helpful and fun! *2025-02-21* I’m amazed by how fast and accurate the stone identification is.
