### 1/5 — Does not offer monthly subscription

*2023-06-22*

Pay for every report. Not for people who are looking at a couple cars

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2020-08-20*

It’s unclear in the description, but you pay for the app to get full reports but you’re paying for only one report.

### 1/5 — Not recommended

*2020-06-19*

Paid for nothing 
Car have accident and tried to know where 
And app shows clean no accident 
Wasted 25$ for nothing

### 1/5 — Unreliable report, got betrayed.

*2019-10-31*

I wanted to buy a car for a great price, but it seemed too good to be true. The dealer said the car had no accidents. But just to be sure, I got a the full paid report from this app. The report said the car was clean. No accidents. So I bought the car. 
Later, I checked the report from a different reporting company, for the same car, and it said the car was in an accident in the past! This app clearly missed didn’t report it. 
I went back to the dealer and told him what I had found, and he said it was just a ‘scratch’ in the rear bumper. 
I got the car fully inspected at the dealership, and they were able to find out that the diagnostics on the car has reported  a “major disconnect” from the rear camera, meaning it was involved in a big, legit accident, and not just a ‘scratch’. I felt so disappointed. Cheated. Worse of all, I felt like a fool to trust the results of this app. I should’ve done the car inspection before buying the car, and not trusted some “VIN check” app. I would never recommend this to anyone. 
Do you own due diligence. Don’t rely on scammers like this app. Will give 0 stars if it were possible.

### 5/5 — Great car report!

*2019-08-09*

It took me a while to figure out how to use it. But once I got it to work I got my report. Much cheaper than Carfax. This is my go to site.

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2019-07-23*

I used this app for the first time & it was a little confusing a first but after a few mins of fooling around i got the hang of it. The info helped me buy the car I’m driving today & im not disappointed!

### 1/5 — Total BS

*2019-06-14*

Just don’t. Stole money and did nothing. Keep your dollars and look elsewhere.

**Developer response:** We sorry for your inconvenience. We did have some technical difficulties with processing the payments. Please contact the support to solve your issue.

### 1/5 — Maybe a con

*2019-06-13*

I was contacted by someone regarding a motorcycle I was selling. They said they had to have this report. Not a Carfax as usual, this one.  As soon as I paid for it, they broke contact with me. The report is very lame so I am guessing someone is just contacting people selling vehicles and requesting this report to make money on their app.....
