Coin Scanner & Identifier App

I downloaded this app because I have some coins I wanted to identify, and because they were offering a lifetime version for free. However, when I try to scan my coins, it does come up with some of the same coin, but not of the same year or composition, as well as gives me a bunch of coins that are nowhere near what my coin is. For instance, I have a silver US Washington quarter from 1961. Now, obviously, I know this is a US quarter, but when I scan it into the app, it brings up a few Washington quarters of other years, as well as a bunch of pesos and other coins from other countries. Aside from the fact that it isn’t identifying THIS coin, it also doesn’t let me add THIS coin to my collection with the information I know about it; I have to select a coin that isn’t my coin to add it to the collection. Additionally, the scanning functionality is not very good. Instead of being able to point my phone at the coin and have it auto-focus, or even be able to tap the screen to force it to focus, I have to move the phone further away and then zoom in on it, which means I’m taking a really unstable photo, which often comes out blurry, or outside the actual scan area, so it misses part of the coin, forcing images to be retaken over and over. To top it off, the coins it does come back with often have no information about the coin, so it really doesn’t provide anything at all, except for a place to save a couple photos of your coins.

A little new to me but I’m liking what I’m seeing. I’ll know more later after I use it for a while! 👍

Good app. Identification works very well
