Pretty decent little point of sale system that works great for me! The only improvement I would make to the app itself is that I wish there was a better way of sorting items I have for sale. (Ex: I sell lots of jewelry at different price points. It would be helpful to have a Folder option, where I could select Necklaces, for example, then be able to sort all of my necklace listings there.) When you have many items for sale, the tiles can get cluttered and it's hard to find what you need quickly.

In a word: horrible. Despite having had to pay $80 for each reader, they barely work. Every single transaction requires the reader to reconnect with the app, a process that takes anywhere from 2-5 minutes. Other times a transaction will stop processing so the reader can reconnect again, causing the sale to have to be redone. This app and the overpriced readers are slow, cumbersome, and unreliable.

Used this card reader for the first time this weekend and it was seriously unreliable. It constantly disconnected from the app every time the device or my phone went to sleep, and it takes forever to reconnect. Customers aren't generally patient people, so this device hurt sales rather than helped. The only way I could keep the devices connected was to have them both plugged in to a backup battery so they would stay on and not go to sleep in-between sales. Pretty annoying overall.
