I’ve tried several rock identification apps, and this is by far the best and fastest one I’ve used. The identifications have been very accurate, and the app is simple to use. It’s been really helpful whenever I wanted to learn more about a rock I found. I highly recommend it!

Ok, I downloaded this app because I wanted to scan my gems and rocks that I have. Then I found out you get ONE free a day. Look, I get it, you want money for working hard to develop the app, and that’s reasonable, but I think you should do adds instead. I will get frustrated for 30 seconds from an ad and that’s it, but I will be frustrated every time I wanna scan rocks because I have to pay for it. Now, this is still up entirely to you, but I think that you should use ads instead as you will most likely make more money than you are now because looking at the reviews, I don’t think many people are paying for the subscription. Thanks for reading! Please think about what I said, as I just want you to be more successful and I wanna scan rocks!!

hey thanks a lot for writing all that out, really appreciate it. we’ve talked about ads before but we were worried they might ruin the experience for some people. you make a good point tho, and we’ll definitely look into testing ads so ppl can scan more without paying. thanks again for caring enough to share your thoughts, means a lot 🙏

This is just dumb and stupid. Why would you only let your consumer get one free photo it should at least be 5 and most ten. If a consumer came through your app and tried to take a picture and then wanted to take another one then got hit with the paywall, there probably gonna delete your app cause it shows how everything is limited. Realistically any sane person would know it’s not worth it to spend money on rocks. I get it you need money but you don’t always gotta squeeze it out of your consumers.

We hear you and we made some adjustments! You're right and we heard it a couple of times: Free users should get more scans. Right now, we decided to raise the free limit to 3 free scans for new users in addition to getting one free scan every day. We'll experiment with this threshold and if it's financially sustainable (covering API, development costs etc.) we will consider raising the free threshold even more! Thanks so much for your valuable feedback!! Update coming within the next days!
