Scanner works terribly and so does the app

Why after forever has the state who makes SO MUCH MONEY off the lottery not have a better app? I wrote a review a year ago. The app has to be signed into 2x in order to scan a ticket and now the ticket says it’s submitting then just spins. Then I have to go out of the app and re scan in then it says ticket has already been submitted. Why does this app suck so badly? Put some of those millions of dollars into building a fast user friendly app? It’s quite ridiculous really. Do better Washington!

Is 2026 about to be 2027 nobody else app is having problems

Is there a way y’all can hire some better engineers? There’s a lot of them that need a job right now.

Scanner broken

If I take a picture of a ticket I have to go out of the app and go back in to have the scanner work.

So many issues!!

Literally have to restart the app several times to scan and then to submit. Just sits and spins. Usually by the 3rd time of closing and restarting it might decide to submit the tickets for points! YOU MAKE ENOUGH MONEY OFF OF PEOPLE, FIX THE APP!

Scanner doesn’t scan

I don’t know what they did but the scanner doesn’t scan anymore

this app is fairly unreliable

whether its inaccessible as far as servers go or the app itself not working, seems like it could be a lot better for people in WA. if servers are unavailable, a more informative helpful message would be a lot better

Scan don’t work

App is really bad, cannot scan code

AS OF SEPT 2026 App will not scan

App never scans. State of Washington - do better get a different contractor!

Pointless

Camera scan stopped working. Annoying af.

Awful

I have created an account established a password it will not let me sign in so I changed the password it will not let me sign in so I created a new account with a different email and the new password it will not let me sign in…awful

Do Better

Glitchy is the polite way to describe it. I had to reopen the app several times for the scanner to work. The latest issue was security certificates, so I had to delete the app and reload. Sometimes I have the impression that the server at Olympia still runs on a Microsoft Vista platform.

Terrible compared to Oregon lottery

Every time I try to login it says attempt unsuccessful. I have changed my password multiple times and then when I try to login the next time it doesn’t work. Plus it’s slow as molasses. I give up.

Camera scan problem.

I’ve used this app for a while and it’s so behind all other state scanner apps, the camera won’t let you scan anything and it’s so slow and stack a lot.😒
Fix that man.
I know you can,

Old version is much better

The old version, maybe 4 or 5 years before, is much better than present version. The new app only tells you it’s a non-win lottery. The old version also tells you the win numbers.

To those who don’t trust machines, the present app is every thing but good and deserves a zero star.

Awful

Absolutely atrocious. I have to open and force close the app multiple times to get anything to work.
I will try to scan a ticket and the app will be “loading” until my phone falls asleep and locks itself

Never opens the first time around

This app is getting worse and worse. Every time I open it, I have to close it and reopen it.

Scanner doesn’t work

That sums it up. The whole point of the app and it doesn’t work

sucks

this app is amazing once you can actually make an account and get into it, i have been trying to sign up/login for 2 days now and it literally won’t let me login or make a new account this really sucks because i would love to use this app but i just can’t

Scam App

Turns out this is not a Washington Lotto scanner, the scanner does not even work. This is just another app specifically designed to violate your privacy by tracking you and collecting all your private data from your phone while disguised as a Lotto app that does not work to scan anything. SCAM

Will not scan barcode

Will not scan barcode in any light condition or distance from barcode. Useless app.
