I hated it... took over my phone and tried to upsell other security apps
does not work
too many ads. takes good 15 seconds to load while you're forced to watch misleading advertisements. the camo that broke the straw was I did not know it wasn't AG but it says your software has expired and you need to update but the update forces you to install a third-party software which I felt was very misleading. this is a reason I will now be uninstalling this app.
extremely deceptive and predatory ads on this app. Any good reviews are botted. DO NOT DOWNLOAD unless you like getting phishing ads at every step of the way
Unusable. Ads upon ads. Ads prompting to install other barcode scanners. Ads pretending to be the UI.
use your camera
so many ads, worthless app
spyware
doesn't load well
extremely bad
Ads for every scan
Rick roll... again and again
Useful but not so interesting
TOO MANY ADS!
Sobrang patalastas ubos ang data mo dito/too much ads.
5 million ads
this application has never worked for me. sure wish I could uninstall.
I could not make it work.
can't get rid of adds they last to long
ads keep loading. not able to use the app
its nit scanning my new card
Installed on S26 - and the entire Phone turned into nothing more than a QR code reader.. I don't know if this has been tested with the latest Android on the S26... CAVEAT EMPTOR
wack.it take u to download another app....
doesn't work
Full of deceptive ads for other QR code scanners
I don't even get a chance to center the entire barcode before it starts scanning a partial one. Once u get a good read it doesn't actually give u a price.
