## Review summary

Users like the app for providing free, quick PD measurements and for helping obtain mono PD, and its QR/card scanning is easy. However, many reviews report unreliable results with PD, frequent glitches and crashes, privacy concerns due to online data transmission and sensitive info, and frustrating UI issues like no easy way to back out or restart. Card scan often fails or provides no feedback. Overall, it's useful for PD access but not dependable for prescription accuracy.

### Pros

- Free PD measurements
- Fast and easy PD measurement
- Helpful for mono PD when the doctor doesn’t provide it
- QR code scanning is straightforward

### Cons

- PD measurements are inconsistent and sometimes far from the doctor’s values
- Glitches and crashes during use (infinite loops, something went wrong, freezes)
- Privacy concerns and data usage (internet requirement, potential data transmission)
- Difficult navigation: no back/exit option
- Card/QR scanning reliability issues (scans fail or provide no feedback)
