ShopSavvy Customer Insights

1. If you want the app to send you alerts for lower prices automatically then you pay monthly but you can manually go into the app and compare prices with no ads for a flat fee.I've been using this app for around 4-5 years & I LOVE IT! If I'm shopping at a store & see an item I want to buy, it's so easy to whip out my phone & scan the barcode to compare prices everywhere else, including online retailers.

2. I've yet to find a valid price for the 15 or 20 items I've tried to check on since the advertisements became so pervasive and invasive.This app use to be great but does not work at all anymore because pop up adds are controlling it to the point it is useless.

3. I just love this app & I especially love the new feature of tracking price drops for any item I've scanned in the past.It used to be a pretty decent app for checking prices but now the ads have taken it over.

4. This app helps you find things you are looking for as well as find cheaper prices when you are trying to get a better deal with a price match.

5. So by the time I'm at the store and the app could help me, either I already know I'm looking at the best price, or being able to get the item immediately is more important than price.

6. I understand stock levels can be difficult to maintain but prices! I'll be standing in front of a lower price, multiple times, yet you'll have your "lowest price" much higher.

7. App is terrible, even with gps enabled local shows 0 on literally anything I scan, including international products, what exactly is this good for? Because it couldn't even recognize 90% of what I scanned as being sold anywhere, some of which were purchased less than a week ago off of stores showing IN THE SEARCH yet the app couldn't find them.

8. It use to give me a list of stores both online and physical, now it just... Lists the top store? Anyway, it doesn't do much price comparison anymore.

9. I have on many occasions saved as much as $5 to $10 on a single purchase on items in the $35 to $45 range with a price match.

10. Monthly subscription? Make more apps if you can't afford your salary! There are too many other barcode scanners that do the same thing this does with a one time flat fee for no ads.

11. I keep trying this every once in a while, but every time I try to search for the best deal on an item I end up finding it easier and faster on a different app.Don't bother with this.
