I didn't even get to use it! Upon opening it let me type in my email and a password to create account, but the next page asks for your first name and last name. I typed it in, hit continue and both first and last name boxes highlighted red and said these fields are required. Ummm. My name is typed in there. So I deleted and retried 2 more times, and got the same error. There is no help or anything on that page, so I uninstalled the app! Thank you for nothing!

Absolutely useless. Downloaded it to try and identify a painting. Not only is the scan box set unchangeably as a square the pinch and zoom seems to have two preset distances only. And when I finally gave up getting it sized right and just hit scan after framing as best as I could, it just sat there for minutes. I tried multiple times. Then promptly uninstalled. Also requires you to give an email to access. Glad I gave my junk one.

I recently changed my Echo Show wallpaper to fine art. The Echo's range is extraordinary - it's an almost 5-star experience - with one glaring exception: it doesn't tell you who painted what you're looking at. So the loveliest paintings flicking through my wallpaper rotation went undocumented until this wonderful thing happened: SMARTIFY! It doesn't recognize everything, even some pieces that are quite old, but they're building their database. In the meantime, when it works, it works a dream!

After updating, all of my scans disappeared, but they were quickly restored (within 24 hours) after emailing the developer. My scans are now easier to find than before. I give four stars rather than 5 because I preferred the black app with white writing (the white background gets lost on my screen). But overall, it's a nice improvement!

I love this app. Every night, I read about a different painting and then check to see what the write-up is on this app has to say about it. The photos are better than those in the guide books I brought in the various museums I have visited. Smartify is versatile in that there are many different ways to use it. I just wish I could further enlarge the art reproductions.

Tried to use app. Wanted to scan my mom's art to find out who painted them how old and such. Had trouble making a profile and it won't scan. It seems that the only thing this app is good for is trying to sell stuff
