I wish apps would stop make the close ads button in the top corners of screens and so small that you cannot select them. Such a waste of time. A terrible feature that hasn’t been corrected for iPhones. ### 1/5 — No longer able to sign in and see my vehicles *2026-04-06, version 11.0.0* I am no longer able to sign in or use this app. ### 1/5 — Won’t open *2026-04-04, version 11.0.0* Installed this on both my iPhone (iOS 16.7.15) and my iPad (OS 18.7), and it just sits there spinning it’s wheel when I try to open it. ### 1/5 — Don’t Bother *2026-03-10, version 11.0.0* This App only works for vehicles in the US so is useless for United Kingdom. Makes me wonder why Apple let it on the Europe App Store ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-01-19, version 10.9.0* It requires me to validate my email address but I never get the validation email even though my email address is correct. ### 1/5 — Said my car doesn’t exist *2025-10-26, version 10.9.0* Tried putting in my vin and it says my vin doesn’t exist, tried using the license plate and same thing. I guess I’m driving a non existent car. ### 1/5 — Look elsewhere! *2025-08-30, version 10.9.0* Terrible app and interface. Don't waste your money on this junk. ### 1/5 — AD Review Scam *2025-06-21, version 10.9.0* Prompts you for a option to watch ads to look a VIN report, you watch ads but the options to be granted access doesn’t work. Comes across as a scam to watch ads. ### 1/5 — Scam app *2025-03-15, version 10.9.0* Bought 250 decodes, when I reopened the app it said I had 0 still. Scam. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Helpful *2026-03-21, version 11.0.0* Very helpful site ### 5/5 — The best *2026-02-12, version 10.9.0* It the best on apps ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-02-11, version 10.9.0* I’ve used this app for years. It tells you all the standard specs of your vehicle based off the VIN. I’ve exclusively bought older vehicles, so having the specs for what came stock is very important, as many owners don’t document work they’ve done, and knowing what likely came stock, helps bridge the gap between new, and someone’s uncle’s cousin’s girlfriend’s ex brother in law’s work. You’re also able to make changes to certain aspects of the vehicle based off of the current state. My current truck is automatic 4WD, but if it had been swapped to a manual 2WD, I could note that in there for the next owner. Or if the motor was swapped, that could be changed, and you can update the mileage. Overall, great app. ### 5/5 — I love this app *2026-01-29, version 10.9.0* La mejor app que he podido encontrar asta el momento ### 5/5 — App *2026-01-09, version 10.9.0* Great app for checking vins pretty accurate information ### 5/5 — VINDecoded *2025-12-20, version 10.9.0* Great!! ### 5/5 — Great *2025-11-17, version 10.9.0* Found everything I needed ### 5/5 — AWESOME *2025-11-15, version 10.9.0* 10/10 ### 5/5 — And even if you're not in the market for a new car, you get all sorts of good information *2025-11-11, version 10.9.0* This app will show maintenance due dates. Very helpful. Years later, this review still holds true. ### 5/5 — Nice app *2025-10-22, version 10.9.0* Nice little app something beats nothing. I’ve had this app for several years and I’m not a car buyer and nor am I active mechanic. But something beats nothing when you walking in looking at a car and if you’re not a mechanic relying on your knowledge, don’t do it. So have this little guy in your pocket. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
