## Most critical reviews (9 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not usable for non Quebec citizens

*2021-09-24, version 1.0.5*

Downloaded this to use while visiting Montreal because it has become a requirement but as a foreigner, the app does not scan my vaccine card nor can I enter my health insurance information.

### 1/5 — Terrible design

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.1*

It should automatically download the QR code when it sends you to the website. Instead you have to print it out and then scan it? Silly.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.1*

App freezes and doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Invasion of privacy potential

*2021-08-25, version 1.0*

Proven over and over, app developers have ways around Apple’s privacy settings. What is the need for this app if I can just carry the paper barcode? Laminated paper works just fine.

**Developer response:** Hello Kyle,

Access to the camera is required to read the QR codes of the proof of vaccination, or access to the photo gallery to import the image of the proof of vaccination. Rest assured, your personal information is protected. When you save a proof of vaccination in VaxiCode, it is stored in an encrypted way. VaxiCode does not communicate with the Internet and the proof never leaves the application, which acts as a secure wallet. As stated in our policy, we only collect the following information:
- Last name and first name
- Date of birth
- List of vaccines administered
- Vaccination dates
- Dates of blood collection
- Last positive result for COVID-19.

The information you provide in this application remains your property and does not leave the internal storage of your smartphone.

### 2/5 — Works ok

*2021-08-28, version 1.0.1*

Easy enough to use, but the fact that it jumps your brightness to 100% once after each app restart the first time you open your proof of vaccination is annoying. Either drop the brightness change or switch it back after exiting the QR code screen.

### 5/5 — Perfect passport app

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.1*
