I just don't know why a simple scanning apps need to be given permission to my location,my contact before I am able to use it.(after all I have paid for the scanning device and app is just an interface) It feel too creepy and unsettling to feel that you are constantly being monitored by this app and loose a lot of what you value such as privacy and choice.

The absolute hardest download I've ever experienced. It came with a DVD, I don't have a player so I went to the website. When I tell you it was a struggle, it was like Hulk Hogan vs Andre the Giant! Took me over 10 attemps to download and almost 3 days! Now that I've done it, it's outdated!! I have yet to use the scan pen that this is to be paired with!! If this ends up being like Godzilla vs Mothra. ALL GOOD NOW. TECH EMAILED ME BACK!
