Key Ring Rewards Card Wallet Reviews

UPDATE:Dropped it from a four to a three as it does not appear you can re-order your stores anymore, and the description field is not long enough unless you modify the names of your customers cards.

UPDATE: change from a two star review to a four star review because, they just updated KeyRingRewardsCardWallet after when I would assume was a number of bad reviews, and now you at least have icons with the name of the store below them. Still haven’t gone back and edit all mine to see if it has everything that I need as far as the full store name but this was definitely needed.

ORIGINAL: We’ve been using KeyRing for a number of years, but may have to look for another app due to this most recent update. We used to be able to add any type of card into KeyRing and we still can but with this newest update anything that’s not in the database shows up as a generic icon and you have to click through every single one in order to find what you’re looking for. This was a horribly bad idea for an update and one way they could it could be fixed is if you allow the user to switch between a list view like it used to be or an icon view. If the developers really want an icon you put that functionality in and you’ll save KeyRingRewardsCardWallet at least for me.

I do use KeyRingRewardsCardWallet religiously mainly due to how convenient it is to have my list always with me and to be able to share/update lists with my husband. However I can’t give it more than 3 stars because of the drawbacks in list management.

My biggest complaint is the fact that your list is forced into categories. While I can see the rationale you aren’t able to assign items to certain categories so if KeyRingRewardsCardWallet doesn’t recognize something as part of “dairy” for example, it gets put into a. “Misc” grouping which seems to take away from the effectiveness. Also I have ALWAYS wanted to be able to display the list alphabetically so that I can easily add to the list rather than having to sort through the list to see if I have already added something we need. I keep hoping that one of these would be addressed in an update but there do not seem to have been any major changes made in KeyRingRewardsCardWallet so am not sure if it is still being actively developed and invested in.

I have loved KeyRingRewardsCardWallet and use it almost daily for all my to-do and to-go lists. Unfortunately, your new UPDATE has created a major glitch! I’ve always been able to click on an item on one of my lists and edit it. Example. On Grocery list I might have “2 Tomatoes” and realize later I really need 3 Tomatoes instead. I’ve always just gone back to the original entry and changed from 2 to 3. No more! Now when you go back and click on any item, it kicks you out of Key Ring entirely. So no way to correct a previous entry. You have to check the item, go to “MORE”, select “delete checked items” to erase the 2 Tomatoes entry and then...do a new entry for 3 Tomatoes!!! So whoever did the latest Updates(?) to improve(??) KeyRingRewardsCardWallet did a really poor job. I am seriously disappointed in an app I’ve recommended to so many people. Please fix your “fix”.

I use KeyRingRewardsCardWallet nearly every day. It got rid of my keyring I kept JUST for key tags--I had so many!--not to mention club cards for Costco, BJ's and the like. KeyRingRewardsCardWallet scans just as well. One nice convenient place for all my cards.

And their support is FAST. Recently, they changed their layout to a grid, rather than a line with the icon, followed by the store name, initially the grid only had the icons. Fine if your card HAS an icon, but if it was blank, you'd have to click on it to find out what it was. So I sent in feedback on this, and less than a week later, the fixed it!! Icons now have store names under them!. Now THAT's what I call service.

I’m not sure what happened to the Keyring app but it hasn’t been what I originally downloaded for several years now. But now it’s just a shell of what it used to be. KeyRingRewardsCardWallet is one page of black & white icons I can barely see of the loyalty cards I added. I don’t even think they are all there or have the entire card numbers on them. Several cards wouldn’t scan when I used them & they wouldn’t work when the cashier tried typing in the number. Nothing else works either. The account, help, contact, etc, are all blank pages. If you go to their Facebook or Twitter pages those haven’t been updated since 2018. I wish I knew what was going on. I had KeyRingRewardsCardWallet since it launched but unfortunately I think it’s time to delete it. I wish I could add a picture it would speak volumes.

Have used KeyRingRewardsCardWallet for several years and found it quite useful. With the most recent update, changes have been made which make it difficult to add cards which are not in their system. Previous cards were displayed in a list making them easy to locate. Now, the names are no longer listed, but rather comp at logos are displayed in boxes. This is fine if the card is from a recognized company. However, if it is a card you need to manually enter (which I have many), it is displayed as a blank box with no name and now means to know which card is represented. This, you must simply start clicking through unknown links until you find the card you need. If not soon reverted to its previous format, I will delete KeyRingRewardsCardWallet and look for a new option.

Recently opened key ring on my phone and all my cards are gone. After years of collecting them and having them available totally disappeared. I’d like to know what happened! I’ve been trying to find a similar app to use and have not found one yet. Although I’m hesitant to reload KeyRingRewardsCardWallet I may unless somebody can let me know another one I can use. I do have wallet but I don’t really care for it like Key ring. I may give it another try but I’m hesitant. I wish they were a place to keep the cards available without Risking securityBut where if they get lost I can recoup them.
I’d like to see her way 50 cards can be saved ones computer so in the event that something happens on the phone, the cards can be retrieved.

Why do these creators of these apps insist on upgrading that essentially make KeyRingRewardsCardWallet worse. Not only did I used to be able to upload all my store cards I also uploaded other types of cards. These included hotel cards airline cards my medical card pictures of my passport things like that. Now it won’t let me do that anymore. Plus most of my cards don’t have the picture in the quick view or it isn’t even listed under name. Rather there’s a nondescript picture of a blank card alphabetically where they should go, so in order to see the card I have to click on it until I find the right card. Horrible horrible update.

I’ve tried other store card storage apps, this is the best! It has other great features too. Grocery list separated by category, stores other cards besides just store ones, sales sheets in one place. It is just a wonderful app, I read a complaint from someone else about a issue with a dairy product not recognizing the proper category, but it will put it in miscellaneous, at least it does do most products and makes grocery shopping a lot easier, not to mention the fact that it’s an all in one no need for multiple apps. Very pleased Thank You🙂

The former interface was a Rolodex style where you could click on a letter of the alphabet and quickly get to the icon you wanted. This blocky style takes longer to load and you have to scroll to the desired key ring icon. Messier and not as easy to use. Still beats carrying around a lot of cards. Better idea would be to quit participating in these brain dead card programs I guess.

Whatever bug has infected KeyRingRewardsCardWallet or whatever update they’re doing has completely been frustrating. You used to be able to sort by category / alphabetical / etc. And it would show up as soon as you tapped to your list. Now genius but at the very bottom in teeny tiny print and you can barely access it. So when you open KeyRingRewardsCardWallet , whatever it chooses to default to on that particular moment is how your list comes up and you have to scroll all the way to the bottom to then find that teeny tiny print and recategorize. Currently looking for a new app. They’re making this one more and more difficult. NOT worth it - too frustrating!!! Don’t bother getting KeyRingRewardsCardWallet it seems to get worse as time goes on.

I have used KeyRingRewardsCardWallet for a very long time. And I loved it. Recommended it to all my friends.
Something happened with the new update. Half of my cards are not showing up with an icon....So I don't know where they are.
My husband and I both contacted technical support and we were told to re-enter our cards. That's ridiculous. Most of the cards we got rid of after we entered them into KeyRingRewardsCardWallet . There's no reason they shouldn't be showing up. I was in a grocery store yesterday and couldn't find my card for that store. Then they told me to do a search. But the search doesn't find your own cards. It just searches for stores.
Please fix this!!!

I have used Key Ring for years and recommended it to many friends. What the heck have you done to KeyRingRewardsCardWallet in the last week? There’s no way to take a picture of new cards added, and all my cards that don’t have bar codes aren’t showing up on the front page. Where is the alphabetical listing of cards? This update(?) has completely ruined KeyRingRewardsCardWallet and I’m already looking for a new one. Key Ring is doomed to fail at this point, and your developers need to be fired! Why would they take a wonderfully helpful, perfect app and turn it into crap?

I hope people will see the latest reviews and dump the “new” Key Ring app immediately. SO DISAPPOINTED!!!

I gave 2 stars because though KeyRingRewardsCardWallet has a meritorious idea of streamlining key tag usage it fails to be useful when the time comes to use it and KeyRingRewardsCardWallet needs to be updated every single time. If it filled a convenient need in a shopping situation then i would have felt inclined to give a higher rating but consistently every single time i need to use it when i’m about to check out or check in somewhere it’s disabled because of a required update. I honesty don’t like standing there at the register holding up the line and waiting for my app to update.

I was shocked today when I went to the store to find out that I couldn't access my reward card because your app suddenly declared it wouldn't work in the EU. But I live in the USA? And with no prior warning, ALL my reward cards that were stored in your app are inaccessible! I never even got the chance to retrieve the info. I don't have the cards anymore and this makes shopping extremely difficult!! Help! Is there any way that you can at least send me a screenshot of the list of cards that I stored on your app?? Access to the numbers would be great, but even a list would be better than nothing!!

I’ve been using KeyRingRewardsCardWallet since it was 1st released, and its improved over time, but now I have an iPhone X, and taking photos of your cards is horrible. I can’t click ‘done’ to save the photo, because KeyRingRewardsCardWallet /phone doesn’t interpret the press because the ‘done’ button is at the top left, where the time is listed which is a drop down. They should lower/move the done button so I can save photos of the cards. This also occurs when trying to view any previously saved photos (prior to my upgrading to the iPhone X).

Update: after writing the review below, I searched for a replacement for key ring. I’m happy to say I found a great one! Anycode Wallet stores your info locally and let’s you remove ads for a nominal fee. It works with no internet connection—in short it’s like Keyring used to be. Yay!
I am a long time user of KeyRingRewardsCardWallet. I downloaded it when it first came out and used it regularly. Unfortunately I have stopped using it because it’s much more difficult to add non-store cards, and it seems intrusive in terms of needing my location. I would be willing to pay for an app that does what key ring used to do. I am un-installing KeyRingRewardsCardWallet.

I've been happily using Key Ring for years. Recently I talked someone into using it. KeyRingRewardsCardWallet doesn't work the same. I believe hers is version 60 while mine is version 26. I have two tabs, Cards and Lists. Easy to add a Card and all instructions I've found on Web work like my version. Her app has "Stores" instead of Cards and every time she adds a Card to the store it tells her it was successful. But it is NOT in her app anywhere. Simply doesn't work. You've gotten too fancy for your own good and should have stuck to loyalty cards instead of trying to add all the extra features. :(

I love Ring and use it for all my rewards cards and my grocery lists. It is very easy to use and up until this latest update, it had no issues. Now, I can’t add notes to any of my shopping items. Every time I click on an item in my list it kicks me out of the system! Which means, no notes for sale items in the store, no adding pictures, no special notes to myself regarding specific brands, etc! I’m totally frustrated and ready to find another program. This used to be the best out there!

The developers have effectively rendered KeyRingRewardsCardWallet USELESS unless you only shop at big box stores or if you used to use KeyRingRewardsCardWallet for ANYTHING other than grocery stores (like your local library, or regional grocery stores)
I used to be able to store my library card for handy access, it’s now floating is a sea of blank square (no name, no photo, nothing) among squares that are only assigned a photo and name if they’re lucky enough to be a big box chain (IE, Target, Harris Teeter)
Why do “developers” feel the need to constantly mess with things that work perfectly well, and create updates without thinking them through?

I have used KeyRingRewardsCardWallet for almost 2 years now. I love not having to carry around all of those key fobs, but the most useful part is the shopping lists. My wife and I can share lists across all of our devices and when one of us is at the store we always have the up to date list. Keep up the great work!

KeyRingRewardsCardWallet has been a life saver...until recently. I love having all my cards in one place without having to carry around a bundle of cards. I also love being able to have my shopping list handy whenever I think of something I need to purchase and never walk off to the store and forget my list. HOWEVER... recently when I click on the item in the shopping list the entire app shuts down. I hope this is just a glitch that will soon resolve itself because I find it to be an invaluable feature. This is why I'm giving only 4 stars. I'll change it to 5stars when it's fixed.

I’ve used KeyRingRewardsCardWallet for years and it’s always worked great, but every time I do an update, it requires me to enter my husband’s iTunes password to update KeyRingRewardsCardWallet on my phone (we don’t share an iTunes account). The only reason I can see why is that I had attempted to share one of my cards a few years ago with my husband, but it didn’t work because he doesn’t have KeyRingRewardsCardWallet , but it kept his email address in its memory. Other than that, KeyRingRewardsCardWallet works great.

I really like KeyRingRewardsCardWallet because it allows me to store rewards and membership cards, and I no longer have to carry these cards everywhere I go. I had lost my gym card, and this prevented me from having to pay for a replacement card.

The only down side was that the camera did some weird things. I had to hold the phone at a strange angle, and it was hard to line up the image in the box. I almost gave up.

Great idea, get rid of those stupid cards in your wallet, move them to your phone.
Why does KeyRingRewardsCardWallet take more than 10 seconds before the cards appear? When I’m at the cashier, everyone behind me are sighing impatiently, waiting for KeyRingRewardsCardWallet to load. It takes too long!!! I only have 10 or so cards in my app, not 1000’s. Are you pulling the card data from the cloud each time it launches? Program initialization needs to be significantly optimized.

My biggest complaint on KeyRingRewardsCardWallet is how long it takes to load. The time has been slowly increasing over the months of updates. It is quite annoying to have to wait 5-10 seconds when I didn’t remember to pre-load KeyRingRewardsCardWallet while waiting in line to pay. Also the coupons are usually for nothing I want and therefore unnecessary for me. I wish I could turn them off. Maybe that will speed up KeyRingRewardsCardWallet .

I have had KeyRingRewardsCardWallet for a couple of years. It worked GREAT.....until my phone was hacked. I got a new phone and tried to log in, but apparently the hacker had changed my password. No worries, I can just reset it right? No. So I tried messaging the company about my problem of being able to get into my account. It’s been three days and ZERO response! Very unhappy that I no longer have access to all of my gift cards and rewards cards and no phone number to call somebody to fix it. Do not get KeyRingRewardsCardWallet unless you expect it to work flawlessly. Which it doesn’t.

Not sure what the previous review means-you have always had the choice to categorize or alphabetize list. Just scroll down and see the option and choose one. I use KeyRingRewardsCardWallet religiously and it is so devastating when it malfunctions like now-I add something and it won’t save it! Tried 4 times and never got it to save?????

opened up KeyRingRewardsCardWallet today and got a message that keyring is no longer available in the EU with some sort of political message. there is no skip or back button and for e wuitting KeyRingRewardsCardWallet results in the same message. the problem is i am in the US not EU! so i couldn't use my cards at the time i needed it. why sabotage and cripple your own app with an update without warning and without a way to close out this stupidly irrelevant message? this used to be my go-to app. but after these shenanigans it's time i look for a serious app that does what it is supposed to do, reliably!
