User Reviews

Users like the app’s photo-based, quick breed identification and easy scanning from camera or gallery, and it helps new cat owners learn about coats and breeds. However, many reviews report serious reliability issues: frequent misidentifications, wrong labeling of coat colors as breeds, and inconsistent results even with multiple photos. Ads and unauthorized charges are also common complaints, making the app feel flaky. Overall, it’s easy to use but not consistently trustworthy for accurate breed determinations.

Pros

Easy to use with photo-based breed identification from camera or gallery.
Helpful for learning about cat breeds and coat patterns.
Scanning feature works across multiple cats, including neighbors’ cats.
Quick, straightforward results that are appealing to new cat owners.

Cons

Inaccurate and unreliable breed identifications across many reviews.
Ads are intrusive and there are concerns about unauthorized charges.
Mislabeling coat colors/patterns as breeds (coat patterns are not breeds).
Results are inconsistent and often require multiple photos to get an answer.

Recent reviews

It seemed to work well when I scanned my cats. I tested this app on my spouse. According to the results, my spouse is a domestic short hair cat. I think this app might have discovered that I'm married to someone who is catty. Not to be mistaken for that famous super hero villain.
