5/5Always Updated & Reliable!
This app has helped me by saving money on every day items and weekly/monthly items that I abut regularly. I was spending monthly about 100$ on cat litter until they showed me a price comparison for a website instead of in store and it came with a ton of perks! Thank you for your hard work & consistency with keeping up to date sale price and the distance all offers in store are from my location at any given time! Just a suggestion to get some more traffic and downloads as I am always sharing your App with friends with the same interests and “ShopSavvy” money saving needs like me! You should come up with a referral system that would be fitting for those of us who are always looking for the best prices and can share feedback on the validity as well as experience within our reviews with certain items and retailers!

5/5My go-to scanner for shopping
I love this app! Anytime I like something I see and want to know where I can I buy it or for how much, just open this app and scan the barcode. Done! It’s so easy, very fast, and tackles a lot of headaches at Christmas time with having 4 kids and gifts galore! Need to know where an item came from to return it? Scan it with this app! Want to know how much something may cost? Or maybe where else you can buy it or if other stores prices are better?!?! Scan it, search for it, use this app!

1/5Gave it a try after reading mixed reviews
After reading some really great reviews and more recently some really poor reviews. All of the poor reviews made reference to a recent change of owners and/or updates, as the downfall of what early on seemed to be a really useful app. So I was cautiously optimistic when I decided to give it a try and downloaded the app... Unfortunately I was extremely disappointed to find the negative reviews were all pretty much spot on. When searching a product by name or scanning a barcode, there was long wait times 30sec-1min or more to get results. With the results being mostly online retailer’s. Even when testing a common product found at Walmart/Target the results were not reliable. There was also what seemed to be an excessive amount of adds compared to other free or non-premium versions of apps. And the adds wouldn’t even bother me so much if the app was functioning as described in the App Store. Unfortunately I have to give 1 star due to the app not having any real usable functionality. I had the same results when trying out this app on my iPhone 11, on my iPhone Xr(work phone), and also on my partner’s Samsung Galaxy s10.

3/5Search results include phishing websites
I have been using this apps for years and use to love it. Recently I scanned a kettle I saw in Costco and savvy showed me a website with better price. I order the kettle from that website. However, that website just disappeared the next day. No order confirmation or shipping information. My email started getting tons of spam and my credit card detected a couple of unauthorized transactions in the other states. Be careful don’t ever order from small/ weird websites. It’s a good app for price comparisons tho.

2/5Good But Pro Feature Doesn’t Work
I purchased the monthly pro subscription to disable the annoying advertisements. Unfortunately the ads continue to display across the Search, Saved, and More tabs. I emailed support but haven’t heard anything in 3 days. I’d gladly pay the sub fee if it would work properly but I will probably have to seek a refund because the developer support has not been responsive. Overall, the app is good but does have some bugs. Sometimes when going to saved and researching items the search gets stuck on the initial phase and doesn’t return results. Closing out of the app and doing the steps again usually fixes the issue.

- Buy ShopSavvy Pro once and keep it forever with the new lifetime option — no subscription - Watched products refresh more thoroughly in the background — each refresh now has more time to finish checking every retailer before moving on, so price drops are caught more reliably - Fixed an issue that could pause occasional engagement push notifications (replies to your comments, upvotes on your deals) for some accounts - Fixed the quick "Watch" action in the long-press menu on product cards — it now actually saves the product to your watch list instead of silently failing - Fixed the Watch button on product pages so it still works in the brief moment after a product loads but before its identifier resolves — previously the button could appear active but do nothing on tap - Sharper offer matching — we now compare product photos and read the offer page itself when deciding whether two listings are the same product, so previous-generation listings, regional variants, and wrong-size models stop slipping into your watchlist - Even sharper offer matching — ShopSavvy now pulls product identifiers (UPC, ASIN, MPN, etc.) right out of the retailer's page text and cross-checks them against our catalog, catching mismatches where the title looks right but the underlying product code points to a different item - A listing we've already flagged as a different model or generation no longer briefly shows up in the main prices at its (often cheaper, wrong) price when it's re-checked during a refresh — it now stays in the "possible matches" section where it belongs - Price history charts on feed cards and inside the assistant chat now disappear cleanly when there isn't enough data to draw a chart — no more empty bordered card with nothing inside it - Fixed a bug where the price history chart could show a "Prediction" label with no matching Best Deal card below — when the analysis isn't ready or hides itself, we now clear any lingering prediction on the chart too - Fixed a bug where the LLM could hallucinate the wrong date for known sales (e.g. Black Friday showing in June instead of November) — we now sanity-check the predicted sale date against the calendar before drawing it on the chart - Refreshed the Pro upgrade screen with clearer benefits, a tighter pricing layout, and a savings-led intro for some users - The "rate ShopSavvy" prompt now only appears at most once every 30 days and only after a clearly successful product search, instead of firing in several places throughout the app — so when we do ask, it's at the right moment - The price history block on a product page now hides itself when there's no chart to show, instead of taking up space with a placeholder card - Improved ad attribution so ads shown in the app stay better matched to your interests, helping us keep the app free - More retailers found per search — when our search results aren't enough, ShopSavvy now also checks DuckDuckGo and Bing in addition to Google, dramatically improving offer coverage especially for niche or hard-to-find products and during periods when one search engine is throttling us - When you tap a search result and the product page comes back with no offers, you'll sometimes see a short note explaining why (the retailer changed their site, the product isn't actually carried there, etc.) instead of just an empty page - Fixed an endless-loop where tapping a Best Buy link with the Best Buy app installed would bounce back and forth between ShopSavvy and a blank Best Buy page; we now hand the universal link straight to iOS instead of pre-launching the app via a custom URL scheme - An ad now occasionally plays after you tap a search result or deal — the same kind that used to play after a barcode scan; this helps keep the app free now that most usage is search-driven instead of scan-driven We're making deals disappear faster than your browser tabs multiply.

- music and movie offers from Best Buy now show a "Buy at Best Buy" link instead of a price, matching Best Buy's terms - offers from a brand's official website now show an "Official Site" label, so you can tell the manufacturer's own listing apart from third-party retailers at a glance We saved you so much money, your wallet might need a vacation.
