Privacy	No known public vulnerabilities found in the sources reviewed.^⁵	Breached: 3M user records including health profiles exposed March 2026; a product security page now exists.¹⁶
Support quality	No evidence reviewed	No support evidence in sources
Public sentiment	App Store users praise it as a free, effective scanner, but independent review volume is thin.^⁸	Users praise photo-scan convenience but flag accuracy limits, bugs, and paid-only access.
