★★★★ Lauren Davis 4/30/2026 v1.7.2
Doesn't actually identify anything correctly, not even something as obvious as Tiger Eye.
★★★★ Dominic Scorpiniti 4/24/2026 v1.7.2
awful!!!!
★★★★ molly wall 4/22/2026
A complete waste of money. I tried this and spent 30 dollars for an annual subscription just to find out it doesn't work. I checked 6 stones and it didn't give me one accurate response. One of my stones I tried 5 times in different light and it gave 5 different responses and all were wrong. it also says no refund.
★★★★ Linda Martin 4/18/2026 v1.7.2
not free only trial
★★★★ Renee Messick 4/15/2026 v1.7.2

★★★★ Angoor D Angoor 4/7/2026 v1.7.2
👍
★★★★ Ryan Clarke 4/4/2026 v1.7.2
I put a half caret diamond in my hand and it was everything but a diamond. I tried 3 more times before it said it was a diamond. I put a stick in my hand and it told me that it was a tigers eye. This app may be good for some, but for me, I think Stevie Wonder would have been a better rock identifier than this app is/was.
★★★★ Denise K 3/25/2026 v1.7.2

★★★★ Katie Mommy Mama Mom Bruh 3/11/2026
I signed up for the free trial, and it charged me a subscription of $29.99 after having it for 2 minutes. Don't trust this app.
★★★★ Kasey Jo 3/1/2026 v1.7.2

Extremely Aggravating!! Having Great Dufficulty Navigating This App.😡
★★★★ Ashley Floyd 2/25/2026 v1.7.2

★★★★ Johan P (Pa_JohanP) 2/12/2026 v1.7.2
WASTE OF MONEY! terrible app. only gives generic category i.e. igneous or metamorphic, but does not identify specific rock.
★★★★ Jessica Rodriguez 2/4/2026 v1.7.2
asked to unsubscribe ASAP with ni way to do so
★★★★ Steve Grant 2/3/2026 v1.7.2
not as discribed. I only wanted a 7 day trail but it took a years subscription.
★★★★ Barbara Garcia 1/28/2026 v1.7.2
3 out of 3 tested were wrong. I want to cancel asap
★★★★ Keri Underwood 1/21/2026 v1.7.2
said free then wants me to pay... another bait and switch
★★★★ Henry VanSlyke 1/14/2026 v1.7.2
This app sucks,, never gets the right name or identifies it incorrectly several times
★★★★ Karen West 1/14/2026
cost to use
★★★★ Claire Brown 1/10/2026 v1.7.2
forced into free trial for three days before payment then all images too blurry despite optimum shots and lighting. avoid
★★★★ Krystyana Rose 12/30/2025
not correct info on rocks. repeatedly keeps charging me even though I've emailed them and asked it to be canceled for MONTHS!!!
★★★★ April Warner 12/23/2025
they got not one Rock right as far as identifying it. this app is a joke
★★★★ Annie 11/15/2025
Doesn't focus until maybe the 7th or 8th try. So blurry picture then gets it Wrong when there's finally a Clear pic.
★★★★ Dane Andrews 11/14/2025
pay locked so i wouldn't trust the app
★★★★ Jenna “Jenna” Cimino 10/27/2025 v1.7.2
i would like a refund bc it won't let me take pics to identifier the crystals and rocks
★★★★ Moon Goddess of the Sun 10/19/2025 v1.7.2
don't waste your money! TERRIBLE IDENTIFICATIONS!!! I took four different pictures of the same Rock and got four different identifications. this app is trash! a waste of money!
★★★★ Greg Young 10/10/2025 v1.7.2
Inaccurate, waste of time
★★★★ Roxanne Mirando 10/10/2025 v1.7.2
it's NOT free!! false advertisement. there is no section for "free" option.. again no option for "free"
★★★★ eric duckett 10/6/2025
I scanned about 5-ish rocks before I was Forced to pay. not going to happen... I'm not even sure how accurate this app is. If I knew with absolute certainty, the accuracy is spot-on, I don't think I would mind paying a little. but, for now, it's just a bunch of rocks, not worth paying anything for.
★★★★ Michaela Sell 10/5/2025 v1.7.2
I can't even begin to explain how I can only scan 5 rocks before I can't do any more because I would have to get premium, at what cost? I'd rather just get a book and self-identify. Do not recommend for anyone who is into rocks like me.
★★★★ Michele Gosla 9/30/2025 v1.7.2
I don't like this app
★★★★★ P Plude 2/20/2026 v1.7.2
tictok, disappointed me on this one. no searchable map, use is pain in @$$ paywall heavy
★★★★★ Virginia Mccutchen 1/15/2026
I'm sure it's a good app I just didn't have the money to be paying for a subscription
★★★★★ Melnardo Wilson 12/18/2025 v1.7.2
cool
★★★★★ Jimi Cole 11/16/2025
