## Review summary

Users appreciate the app's barcode scanning and browsing features for price checking and shopping list creation. However, common complaints include frequent crashes, unreliable barcode scanning, sign-in issues, poor stock availability information, and slow performance. The app's instability and missing functions frustrate users, though it holds potential for improving in-store shopping experiences with better reliability and accurate stock data.

### Pros

- Helpful for browsing items and creating shopping lists before visiting the store.
- Shows product pictures and descriptions clearly.
- Can find manager's picks, offers, and browse categories.
- Provides price comparison and deals identification occasionally.

### Cons

- App frequently crashes or fails to load properly; users report blank screens or freezing.
- Barcode scanner often fails to recognize products or times out, making it unreliable.
- Repeated requirement to sign in and issues with account registration; app sometimes cannot find local stores despite their presence.
- Favorited or saved shopping lists do not reliably save or display items, causing frustration.
- Stock availability checker is inaccurate or nonfunctional, and no way to check inventory by branch.
- App is slow and laggy, with long loading times and poor performance.
- Concerns about the app attempting many network connections triggering firewall alarms and possible security issues.
