User Reviews

User reviews show a split: some praise ease of use and fast scanning for event staff, but many report critical reliability issues (login failures, freezes, camera access, scanning problems) and missing customer-focused features. There are also concerns about company reliability and lack of updates. Overall, the app has potential but stability and feature gaps limit widespread adoption.
Pros
  • Easy to understand and manage for small business owners; helps track staff information.
  • Fast and highly rated ticket scanning; many users say it’s the best ticket scanner they’ve used.
  • Scans physical tickets reliably.
  • Great concept with potential; users want it improved and maintained.
Cons
  • Frequent login failures and app freezes/crashes across multiple devices.
  • Scanning issues include inability to scan barcodes, camera access problems (black screen), and focusing small barcodes.
  • App is not updated or maintained (last update many years ago).
  • Lacks customer-facing features (wallet pass support, attendee view, event management) and is vendor-focused.
  • Trust concerns about the company (reported bounced checks/refunds and payment disputes).

This is a great app that people, especially ticket scanners would love to use. It is the faster and the best ticket scanner that I have ever used. A friend of mine suggested me to use this and now I don’t use any other app to scan my tickets. I highly recommend you guys to use this, trust me, it’s really helpful and you would love to use it again and again, thanks!

Stealing from children is despicable. Your company is horrible. Everyone who works for you should be ashamed.
