Based on 24 real App Store reviews, here's exactly what users wish Goal Scanner apps would build.
Features users are literally asking for in their reviews, ranked by demand.
"This app would be more marketable if they allowed a few free scans to warrant the subscription."
"I won't purchase anything with a trial run."
"Wouldn't let me use across separate iPads for my business."
"No data. Just a name and age. Big deal."
"Got this to scan PA licenses. Always reads possibly fake."
"iPhone 12. Latest iOS. It says it can't read any of the drivers licenses I have tried to scan and they are all probably a fake"
Prioritized actions based on user demand and market opportunity.
75% of complaints are false fake detections. A reliable scanner that correctly reads PDF417 barcodes on state IDs would immediately differentiate from broken competitors.
42% can't scan at all due to camera/focus issues. Modern ML-based barcode detection (Vision API, MLKit) would solve the core technical failure plaguing existing apps.
Multiple users explicitly state they won't buy without testing. Free trial eliminates purchase friction and builds trust that the app actually works.
Users complain about minimal data extraction. Full barcode parsing provides significantly more value than just name/age, justifying premium pricing.
Business users need cross-device functionality and are willing to pay premium prices for reliable tools. Current apps fail to address this B2B segment.
