Texas Lottery Official App Reviews

App is great for it’s purpose but after a recent update I had the same issue scanning tickets that someone else recently posted about on Dec 20, 2021. I also had an issue with “Win at Gifting”, which is an add line at the bottom of TexasLotteryOfficialApp , taking up half the screen. Decided to delete TexasLotteryOfficialApp and all it’s data then reinstall. It’s back to normal. Scanner works great again. Unsure why an update would do this and a reinstall fixed it but tends to work on other apps too. Having these problems? Try what I did… I hope this post helps some people as I usually don’t post reviews.

It’s scans the tickets all right but it’s missing a key feature that the website has. I enjoy math I like statistics if the number two showed up 59 times more than any other number and the Powerball that’s kind information I want to know. I would like to be able to have the option on TexasLotteryOfficialApp to check and see the amount of times my lucky numbers have hit in last year or month and other statistical inquiries like that. Such as have all of the major price is already been claimed on a scratch off. If so I’d like to play a different scratch off that’s the kind information you can’t get standing at the gas station asking the clerk.

It won’t scan tickets. When it does, it is wrong. You may possibly be throwing away more money but they don’t care they have your money and get to keep your if you win by the looks of the same amount of complains for a long time now! The new format is nice but it cannot keep up w interactivity for the scanner! Mine went from scanning, to not scanning, to saying my brand new phone I received as a gift that is the latest model doesn’t have the capability to scan, to now saying unable to scan see retailer. When I went to several different retailers when they Two Step was high. So, it is all the application. Not that many cashiers and retail places could make the same mistake!

Overall I am fine with TexasLotteryOfficialApp . I mainly only use it to scan tickets. However, one key feature really annoys me. I do not want the stupid “beep” sound when I scan. Even though I have gone in to the settings to turn off sound and automation, it still beeps every scan. On previous version, it would beep loud until I scan a winner and then it would beep slightly lower but still beeped. This version beeps full volume every time. I have to switch my phone to “silent” to stop this noise. Please fix this.

I play three games twice a week. In the previous version this created one barcode for a retailer to scan for all three games. Now, the retail associate has to swipe my phone through three barcodes, one for each game or they have to hand it back and forth for all three games. This is already a burden because I find less then half of them even know what TexasLotteryOfficialApp is all about. Often, they even try to scan it using the point of sale scanner. This is absurd. And as mentioned before, scanning tickets is hard to do. The scanner in app is very rudimentary and creates many error scans. The beep is also unnecessarily loud.

The Texas lottery has really stepped it up with the re-branding and design the new app and website look . the are making it easier for people to get information they need , you know around results, or creating a ticket, or scanning, or entering the second chances, or just news in general, so that’s really good to see that they’re they are actively trying to pursue making those things better for the customer

Just letting everyone know that this scanner is the bomb. You can scan your tickets and if you have kids that like to scratch your tickets you can leave the losers tickets for them to scratch. If you little kids are like mine. Little kids like to scratch until there are no numbers on it anymore so I just let them scratch till their hearts are content then when they bring it to me I say oooh look you won a dollar and they are so happy.

TexasLotteryOfficialApp is ok but certainly nothing to write home to momma about… the only thing it’s really good for is to scan your tickets to see if they are winners. I’ve lived in a few other states with state lottery apps that are 10x better than this one. Would be nice if you could actually purchase the lottery/powerball tickets from TexasLotteryOfficialApp as well as given the option to save your winning ticket funds to the site (to purchase more tickets)

The barcode scanner used to be on target until the last two updates. Now it barely works and when it does you have to stand in a corner with one leg up, holding your mouth just right while juggling oranges. Quit fiddling with a good app. Why programmers think they have to constantly improve on something is beyond me. If it works efficiently, leave it alone. The rest of TexasLotteryOfficialApp is fine but the scanner is useless. Hope they fix it soon. Otherwise I’ll have to keep driving to a retailer to check the tickets.

Enjoy TexasLotteryOfficialApp but lately it’s been horrible ! The ticket scanner was working fine then a new update and now TexasLotteryOfficialApp is bugged out. DOESNT load then when it does the ticket scanner doesn’t work ? Don’t fox things that are not broken ! Ps. Your new ticket 50x ? I get a 5x symbol on the ticket so I’m thinking cool at least a $25 winner because it’s a $5 scratcher. I scratch and it’s $2 under the 5x ? There are no $2 prizes so why is there one under the 5x ! Hope the sales on these are way down. I’ve been letting every one I know and customers in stores that these new tickets are scams !

I noticed a new Texas Lottery icon on my Home Screen, new blue colored icon. I touched ion to launch app. I have several scratch off tickets to check A long 5 minutes no app selections, nothing . Looked DOL-dead on launch. Went to APP Store it see about downloading again. All I could do was OPEN app within APP Store. Even after eating dinner, 30+ minutes later app still had a white screen, no Texas Lottery app functionality.
Bring back previous version, fire new version app team, save money, and have all end users happy! WHAT!!! I can’t give a half star!!! here’s a forced 1.

TexasLotteryOfficialApp isn’t working now at all . It was working fine just a few days ago everything is up-to-date on my phone. I tried to open TexasLotteryOfficialApp to scan a few tickets right now and nothing in TexasLotteryOfficialApp is working it just ask like it is trying to open and load but nothing pops up and then when I go to the options and hit scan tickets nothing happens it doesn’t pull up the camera like it usually does. I tried deleting TexasLotteryOfficialApp and then re-downloading it and it still doesn’t work please fix this ASAP this is very irritating

TexasLotteryOfficialApp is good overall. It’s so convenient that you can scan your tickets using TexasLotteryOfficialApp and instantly find out if it’s a winner or not. Also. I like the fact that it shows the dates of the drawings and the numbers from the most recent game. I do wish there was a way once you scan a winning ticket it saved the ticket information and the amount you won. Maybe once you scan a ticket it can track how much you spent vs how you’ve won overall based on the tickets you scan with TexasLotteryOfficialApp .

TexasLotteryOfficialApp doesn’t support IPhone 8... The phone has been on the market for over a month now and your app has yet to evolve. Maybe TexasLotteryOfficialApp developer needs to pay attention to technology changes if they want to play in the technology business. While you work to allow your app to work on the IPhone 8 why don’t you also take away the annoying automatic wheel spinning menu when we first open TexasLotteryOfficialApp . I open TexasLotteryOfficialApp to check my tickets, but your spinning menu makes me wait for the wheel to stop spinning before I can make my selection. The options menu needs to be static and not dynamic.

Hi everyone, I wanted to let you know I just downloaded this and the scan ticket option isn’t working for me TexasLotteryOfficialApp just freezes? I tried other apps and they all work fine. Is this a bug and if so is it going to be resolved.

The look of TexasLotteryOfficialApp is nice and fun and easy to use. But currently the scan a ticket is unavailable at the moment. Such a bummer.

The apps works well and makes it easy to check my lottery tickets.
One suggestion: The moving wheel at the beginning is a annoying because users have to wait for it to finish spinning before tapping on the feature they want. When I start TexasLotteryOfficialApp , I already know which feature I want (e.g., barcode scanner), so having to wait for the spinning wheel is tedious.
Otherwise TexasLotteryOfficialApp works very well for me.

Parts of TexasLotteryOfficialApp don’t load. It may take a long time to just load the main page. The scan function which is the only reason I downloaded it is not currently working , at least on iOS. It looks like it tries to access the camera but fails after a few minutes. I have used it once in the past when the scan function worked which was nice but TexasLotteryOfficialApp appears to not be well maintained.

With the most recent update (supposedly to make the scanner better) the scanner has stopped working. Freezes up or takes five minutes to scan and then says invalid barcode. Might actually scan once out of every 10 times. Worked much better before this recent update. Tried deleting app and re-installing and now TexasLotteryOfficialApp times out (sits and spins) on the terms and conditions page. Can’t get past this page rendering TexasLotteryOfficialApp completely useless.

WHEN! It works it’s good. After a drawing it’s useless. Obviously your bandwidth can’t handle Texas! Do something about that. Tweek TexasLotteryOfficialApp and make it better. Just might be that your IT lack the ability to make this a great app. It’s been operative too long for it to have a 3 star rating. I’m sure you have the funds to hire top notch programmers. Got to spend money to make money.

For the last few weeks, TexasLotteryOfficialApp hasn’t been able to detect bar codes in the tickets. Maybe once every 10 scans it works but not reliable. Shame because it use to work just fine before. Something got broke on one of the latest updates. I hope it gets fixed.

TexasLotteryOfficialApp has probably saved me money since I downloaded it to my iPad. I'm the kinda guy that sits on my tickets for about 3-4 months, then I would go through the tedious process of going to the site and going back to see if my numbers have hit, I don't trust the person scanning my ticket they might LIE. Well after going through a stack of saved tickets I hadn't won nada thing but my spirit says see if there's an App for that, and low and behold it is. I went back through my tickets and found out that I had WON SOME OF MY MONEY BACK, nothing really really big, but after years of throwing away ( I can only assume), now I know I'm not. TexasLotteryOfficialApp is the BEST.

When you filter the scratch off ticket section and then click on a specific ticket, once you click back, it should keep the filter settings so you don't have to reset them each time. Currently it resets them again and you have to re-enter filter settings. This is extremely frustrating and should be fixed!

Great app but wished the sort/filtered results and criteria stayed applied on the scratch tickets when going back to the list. For example, sorting the scratch tickets to only show $20 or higher tickets, once you click to go back, it just shows all tickets instead of the previous filtered ones that are $20 and higher.

I really enjoy TexasLotteryOfficialApp. The past two days TexasLotteryOfficialApp has not been working properly. Was hoping with this update it would be fixed. The update just came out and I updated TexasLotteryOfficialApp , but it still is not working.
I hope it gets fixed soon. TexasLotteryOfficialApp has been very useful.

The previously spinning menu is now stationary. The scan button is now under the thumb and the jackpots button at the top. Perfect. Fixed the filter for scratch tickets so it is retained after viewing individual games. Upgraded the scanner. Well done, developers!

The ability to now filter scratch-off tickets by price and then hit the back button to bring up other scratch-offs in that same price range is a HUGE improvement and one that was long time in coming.

Good work!

We’ve tried TexasLotteryOfficialApp on two phones and three iPads but when you scan the scratch tickets it comes back as invalid barcode. We assumed that it may not work with certain scratch tickets possibly newer ones but, on the back of the ticket it specifically states to download TexasLotteryOfficialApp and scan the tickets. This occurs on all the tickets we have purchased: bonus jackpot, fast cash, super crossword, and just cash word.

Folks should really read through terms and conditions before considering use of TexasLotteryOfficialApp, particularly on the topic of privacy of personal information. If you were to ever win a jackpot-and your intent should that ever happen was to remain anonymous by using a third party to distribute your winnings to you, you may be already giving up your privacy by using TexasLotteryOfficialApp. Sometimes what we do in the spirit of convenience is not what is always in our best interests.

The best feature of TexasLotteryOfficialApp was the ability to quickly check one ticket numbers by scanning the ticket barcode. Alas that feature is no longer compatible with the iPhone 8 or iPhone X. Until this feature is updated it’s about as useful as searching Google for the winning numbers. You’re back to manually checking your numbers. Hopefully the developers are providing an update soon (crossing fingers)....

Great app. Makes it really easy to check if my tickets are a winner. I personally get very annoyed by the spinning function menu. It doesn’t have any real purpose and usually results in me selecting the wrong option if I don’t patiently wait for it to stop spinning.

iPhone 7 Plus. App starts up but does not load any data from the lottery. Just blank screens. How do I go back to the old version?

Update: problem was fixed. Awesome app!

Ok so 95% of the aps out there have a default login so that you don't have to keep reentering your information every time right? So why is it that the Luck Zone requires you to log in every time AND does nothing every time? It is not an internet issue or a server problem because I was able to log in to the website and do my entry that way without a problem. Fix your ap please.
