User Reviews

Users appreciate TBScan for its simplicity, efficiency, and ability to log multiple trackables rapidly, especially at events. The app is praised for bypassing official app limitations and offering great customer support. However, several users note issues with the Pro version related to unclear pricing, occasional crashes, and loss of Pro status, as well as limitations with camera roll logging. The OCR scanning is effective but requires proper usage for best results.
