Barcode scanning can work in isolated cases but is inconsistent and slow. Several reviews report misidentifications and poor value, with many calling it a waste of time and money. A few acknowledge a promising concept and potential if reliability improves.

Junk. Doesn’t scan bar codes, doesn’t show text you type, no way to ask for help. Don’t waste your time.

I’m brought the trial thank God because I’ve been trying to scan books and it does nothing and it’s good till sept 3.

Shelf scan is the function I wanted but it doesn’t work at all. Shows no books can be identified, but if I pull them out and use the barcode feature, it can find them. Complete waste of time and money since the shelf scan was what I needed. If that’s what you are looking for, find another app.
