### 1/5 — Unusable at the auction!

*2025-01-31*

The app constantly freezes on me and the bids are closed by the time the vehicle I want to buy loads in fastbook! Dealers if you have the option to choose go with VAuto! This is ridiculously slow and laggy!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-01-27*

If my company didn’t force us to use this app, I would have deleted it day 1. Constantly has issues with uploading photos, which is one of the primary uses of an appraisal tool. Adds time and frustrations to every car deal. This is a problem between multiple users and platforms. Updates addressing this issue never work. Do not, I repeat, do not use this program.

### 2/5 — Photos not working

*2024-09-12*

Your most recent update will now not allow photos to merge over to the trade! 
Please fix ASAP

### 5/5 — Awesome Scanner

*2020-10-20*

Always works when I need it. Camera picks up VINs even from far away or in the dark. Can do booking with all the same format and options as I can on my desktop. Worth the money for sure.

### 5/5 — Super fast

*2020-03-04*

This is the quickest vin scanner I have seen.

### 5/5 — FastBook app

*2018-10-03*

This app gives the user all of the tools to put the right money in the trade in.look at all of the book values and see what your competitors are pricing there units.Take photos, stock in units and see your inventory on your phone.

### 5/5 — Love the latest update

*2017-05-14*

Very happy with the new version. Fastbook is the best vin scanner and booking app for the iPhone without a doubt. Essential tool for quickly booking vehicles at auction too

### 5/5 — Finally all conditions.

*2017-04-27*

I've tried all the scanner apps and now am sold that fastbook is the best. This new 5.0 version is amazing.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-03-04*

Doesn't work and requires you to set up an account giving them your personal info to see if it works. Not worth the time or hassle, removed download.

### 5/5 — Sweet dealer App

*2014-12-03*

Fastbook 4.0 is killer. Love all the new updates. Great job Dealerslink!  I've waited 6 months for this and am stoked how it integrates with my Fastbook account.
