## Review summary

User reviews show a split experience: a minority appreciate Mobile Scan when it works, citing convenience and accessibility benefits. The majority report persistent problems: in-store connectivity to the ShopRite system, device compatibility with newer phones, and a lack of updates. Availability by location is inconsistent, making the app unusable for some shoppers. Overall reliability is poor, with frequent failures and long-standing issues, and many customers are calling for maintenance and better cross-store support.

### Pros

- When it works, it provides a fast and convenient self-checkout scanning experience.
- It can save energy and be helpful for disabled shoppers.
- Some users have expressed love for using Mobile Scan to grocery shop when it functions properly.

### Cons

- Frequent in-store connectivity issues prevent scanning and require reconnecting to store Wi-Fi or restarting the app.
- Compatibility problems with newer devices and Android versions, causing the scan to fail on phones like Galaxy S23/S24/S25 and Google Pixel 9/10.
- Lack of updates and maintenance, with little to no meaningful updates for years.
- Not available in all stores, leading to inconsistent availability by location.
- Overall reliability is poor with persistent failures and long-standing issues.
