Precision:

No personal data is displayed or saved by the application.
We access a database that contains only information about the vehicle and in no way about the owner. (name, department, registration address ...).

User reviews

These summaries are automatically generated weekly using AI based on recent user reviews. Google Play Store does not verify user reviews, so some user reviews may be inaccurate, spammy, or outdated.

Pros

Accurate enough for most cars.
Able to manually input license plate information.
Very good app, gives model, year, and some misc information.

Cons

Many users report that the app doesn’t find vehicles, especially in certain countries like France and Spain.
Issues with accuracy for older and electric cars.
Frequent ads and poor interface lead to a bad user experience.
Paywalls for vital information like tickets and fines.

Most mentioned

App has stopped providing manufacturer and year information for vehicles.
Some databases are lacking, especially for newer and electric vehicles.
Frequent app malfunctions and lack of database updates.

User reviews

Useless. The vital information, such as any pending tickets, fines, or accidents, is hidden behind a paywall. Only shows car model. Google will tell you that for free with no extra bs.

used to work great. now every search says not available potentially due to owner privacy settings. but having registered all of my own cars in my state, I know there isn't a "privacy option". so either the error is wrong, or they're losing access to databases.
