Transparency - Reviews

by Jimmyjones120

To me the point of Transparency? Because it never told me the Authenticity, origins, production date, and more! -the statement it claims to make. It just told me what I read off the box; the name of the product :) greeeaat. I got more info off the product box. I’m sorry but explain to me the use of Transparency...

Downloaded Transparency for what I thought were some directions for the utechsmart Venus Pro gaming mouse. Absolutely useless! And a waste of time. There are only features described on Transparency. Other than that, there is nothing. No programming, no troubleshooting, no tips or tricks on how to get the most out of this item, just descriptions

Waste of time. All it provides is a photo and dimensions of the product. It would have been halfway helpful if it gave production location details like some of the other reviewers experienced, or even the company/manufacturer name. Reviewers have commented that the value lies in being able to confirm authenticity. Those experiences seem limited as the majority, including myself, seem to have received barely any information. Save your time and go right past Transparency.

Purchased Frontline Plus and I get same info from box. Transparency does NOT tell the product dates. It only tells what the item is, manufactured in France and a big list of letters. I want to know when made and when expires!

You will scan a barcode and it will shows your product. I bought a screen protector and I thought that it will give me a learning video how to apply it. But as I said first it only shows the name of the product.

You shouldn’t download and use this. All it does is tell you that your product was made in China or wherever . The problem is it requests to access to your location (just say no) and your location is harvested as data. That’s useful for the people who made the product but not to you.

So what’s to prevent someone from copying the copier and slapping it on their product? I got a box of fake masks. They started on the box not ASTM level 2 and had a misspelled website printed on the box. But when I scanned the sticker with Transparency - it assured me the product was a genuine item with ASTM level 2 protection despite the item itself contradicting that. 🤦‍♀️

Transparency does not support iPhones newer than the iPhone 7, resorting to a letterboxed compatibility mode. In the current year? smh

Yet it harvests your location data for no reason.

Ultimately, what’s the point of knowing that your latest intimate prosthetic was lovingly injection-molded in Shenzhen three months ago?

If you ever wanted to know where the thing you bought was produced... instead of reading the side of the box you can scan a sticker. Kinda dumb but it works as advertised so can’t rate poorly.

Just shows you a picture of the product description - nothing too informative,
kind of the same information that’s on the box

by Kaye143

Only told me what I purchased. Didn’t tell me where it was from or when it was made. I was just curious and delete.

Apparently the only thing Transparency does is detects what the product is that Transparency scans, and provides specifics. There really isn’t any significant reason for downloading this. this app doesn’t need to exist. Kind of like MySpace.

I now know my iPhone case was made in China just like it says on the box. Nothing wrong with Transparency . I was curious enough to download it. I think they’ve updated it since the prior review- it works with big screen iPhones perfectly now and if you don’t want to share your location just say don’t allow.

But while the reviewer was spot on in highlighting the pointlessness of Transparency they failed to note the true purpose Transparency, which appears simply to emphasize the pointlessness of existence itself.

Downloaded Transparency to scan the product. Thought there was more to it. It’s pretty useless in my opinion.

Transparency is supposed to help customers authenticate products and it does that well. I think most people don’t understand what Transparency does.

by Mike Pocarovsky

Easy to use, nice to see if a product is legit

Transparency does exactly what it was intended to do. I find it funny that many people don’t see the point. I am an avid boardgamer and there have been LOTS of counterfeit copies of boardgames coming from overseas. Transparency allows you to confirm that you have the real thing.

Since I want my purchases to benefit the creators of these boardgames, I am glad that this exists.

by BlindBane

It’s great! Can’t believe how many other reviews want an app for verifying authenticity to act as google for them. If stupid was a sin we’d all be on fire.

Sure, Transparency might not have a lot of use for many people including me, does it’s purpose perfectly, so it deserves a good rating for that

Simple.
Scan the product
Get a green check mark ? Your product is NOT a counterfeit .
No green check mark? Your product is a counterfeit .
Simple
Maybe this will help the idiots that say Transparency is useless.
Definition of Counterfeit- made in exact imitation of something valuable or important with the intention to deceive or defraud

by Stewardaka

It is not worth your time downloading because it only tell you the name of the product which I know it doesn’t even tell you how to connect it to your phone

by Bloxburg13

The product is good, but Transparency , Transparency ... well, it’s trash.
It just scans the box and there is just a blank screen? How did it work for other people? This is ridiculous and I do not recommend it.

by Tranceunta

It only gave me the product's name, which of course I already knew...

by Mygraciecat

10/20 Scanner to tell me what the box says.

by Neerajag

Works great. I hope that more produts support this app.

by Sunny Chip Model

Decent app but not better then a sr scan. 👌🏾
