Really not very user friendly. ### 3/5 — Scanning tickets *2026-08-13, version 3.19.1* The app is a great tool to scan all your tickets except the times the barcode will not scan and the option to enter the ticket manually is no longer available. ### 2/5 — Won’t scan tickets for VIP *2026-08-11, version 3.19.1* Often times it is unable to identify ticket information. ### 2/5 — Try Again *2026-07-26, version 3.19.1* The app won't read the ticket unless you "try again" NUMEROUS times. ### 2/5 — Needs updating *2026-07-22, version 3.19.1* This app is convenient for checking lottery totals, but is often very slow to load regardless of connectivity. Also, the barcode scanning feature is very frustrating. If you don’t get an exact scan, it continues to back you out of the scanner, then has to load the scanner, and will quickly “capture” the barcode again before really having an opportunity to line it up correctly. If the barcode scanner got updated, this review would have been 4/5 stars. ### 5/5 — Wish I could win *2026-07-16, version 3.19.1* Awesome very organized site ### 5/5 — Can’t Wait *2026-07-15, version 3.19.1* So exciting to scan a ticket to see if I won more than I see, it’s happened more than once!!! ### 5/5 — ⭐ Southern Tennessee‑Style *2026-07-15, version 3.19.1* As a loyal Tennessee lottery player ever since it became legal here, I’ve put more money into scratch‑offs and Pick 3/Pick 4 than I care to admit. I’ve played through sunshine, storms, and even that wild Covid stretch — and let me tell you, I’ve noticed one thing loud and clear: the payouts have dropped harder than a possum falling out of a sweetgum tree. Before Covid, you could at least feel like you had a fighting chance. Nowadays, it feels like the scratch‑offs are mostly just pretty little cardboard souvenirs. I swear the pay has decreased at least 80%, and that’s being polite. Pick 3 and Pick 4 used to hit often enough to keep the excitement alive — now it feels like the numbers are doing gymnastics just to avoid me. But here I am, still playing, still hoping, still scratching like it’s my part‑time job. Because at the end of the day, it’s Tennessee — we love a little gamble, a little hope, and a whole lot of “maybe today’s my day.” If they ever raise the payouts back to what they used to be, I’ll be hollerin’ louder than a rooster at sunrise. I i know I will win a big jackpot one day! Ole the plans I have is going to make such an impact on so many life’s ! It would just be a very hard decision on where I want to focus with all the needs out there! I have a heart for seniors, underprivileged, children, and battered women! I wish I could start a nonprofit for all three! I know it’s my calling. I just don’t have the funds to do so! I know God one day will make it happen! I will sit and wait for that day to come! Bring on the Money good ole Jackpot of mine! ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-15, version 3.19.1* Love it ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — ? *2026-08-18, version 3.19.1* Don’t seem to be as many winners as they used to be. Whether it’s scratchers or whatever you play. Since the inception of the lottery, on average, tuition costs in Tennessee have gone up I believe 8-12% annually. Good job Rebecca Graham Paul - how’s that $400,000 annual salary treating you??? ### 1/5 — Lottery lost excitement *2026-08-09, version 3.19.1* At this point instead of 1 bazillion dollar winner, how about multiple winners in smaller amounts? I would certainly play more with an actual return once in a while. ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-08-07, version 3.19.1* In the past I played scratch off’s from $1.00 scratch off’s to $25.00 scratch off’s but for over 8 months me and just about every person I see buying a scratch off I ask if they’ve won much and 99% of them say not any more why is that?? I know longer play scratch off’s under the assumption of me winning I play just to lose and currently I’m 0 and 19 and that only tells me one thing and that’s The Tennessee Lottery is nothing but a scam,I don’t know how ya”ll are getting away with it but I guess ya”ll are paying off the right people🤬🤬🤬 ### 1/5 — Scanner is Not Good *2026-08-05, version 3.19.1* TN needs to get their app updated like CA. Often times it doesn’t read the ticket bar well or says it unable to view it. It’s very frustrating! ### 1/5 — Never seen a real online winner *2026-08-04, version 3.19.1* You can play this for years and it’s ridged just like the paper lottery. You can buy buy buy and play again and again and again and you’re just broke at the end. And what black child has benefited from the Tennessee lottery? I’ll wait. ### 1/5 — Scanner broke. *2026-08-03, version 3.19.1* This app stopped scanning tickets which was the whole purpose of this app ### 1/5 — App Needs Adjusting *2026-08-02, version 3.19.1* Lottery number scanner needs addressing… the camera doesn’t give time to focus on barcode before it says it can’t be read. ### 1/5 — Cannot scan tickets properly *2026-07-30, version 3.19.1* App cannot properly scan barcodes. ### 1/5 — Ridiculous app! *2026-07-25, version 3.19.1* Logged on could not play a single game there’s no intrusive way to just play a game instantly!!! when are the worst apps I’ve ever dealt with!!! ### 1/5 — Drawings not updated *2026-07-18, version 3.19.1* 25 minutes after the official drawing and the winning for mega millions still haven’t posted to the app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — TN Lottery *2026-08-19, version 3.19.1* Fun to play, app makes it easier to upload, check tickets in case you miss a number to verify if win.
