This app is terrible now since the update it was so much better before when it was simple you opened up the app and it went right to scanner instead of all these apps advertisements that I have to look at before I can get to the app itself now absolutely terrible if I could give it negative stars now I would it's unfortunate you can't, until you can give me a way of undoing the update and going back to its original version this negative referral will stay up DO NOT DOWNLOAD

It's gonna be super awesome to have the app add a Quick Settings tile & I also request the developer to add a dark mode in the app. 5th star coming your way when either of these are implemented.
