## Review summary

Based on user reviews, Brickit is valued for its many build ideas and the convenience of finding projects quickly, with a free-to-start model that users appreciate. However, users repeatedly report reliability and cost issues: frequent scan failures and mis-detection of bricks, color-recognition problems, and a brick-limit that prevents exploring larger sets. Many reviews also mention expensive subscriptions, auto-charging, and refunds disputes, as well as the app’s large storage footprint. Overall, it shows strong potential when functioning properly, but persistent reliability and pricing concerns are the main drawbacks.

### Pros

- Provides a large number of build ideas per scan (40+ projects).
- Faster than searching YouTube for LEGO ideas.
- Free to start with optional paid upgrades.
- Generally fun and engaging when the scans work.

### Cons

- Frequent scanning failures and inaccurate brick recognition (wrong pieces, color issues, or 'something went wrong').
- Subscriptions and automatic charges; expensive and difficult to cancel/refund.
- Not enough bricks available (block limit around 50; not satisfying for larger collections).
- Color recognition issues (app seems color-blind).
- Very large app size / takes up a lot of storage on the device.
