Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

CheckIfReal enables consumers to authenticate products tagged with the Authentic Vision Unique Label to determine its realness. Check if real stands for secure, simple and smart automatic product authentication without any special knowledge by just using a smartphone. Checkifreal smoothly guides the user through the simple authentication process. Authentication has never been as easy as with CheckIfReal and Authentic Vision. How to use: To scan a code simply open the app and frame the code into the brackets. After that, move the phone while keeping the tag in focus, so that we can capture the hologram from different angles. Checkifreal will automatically recognise the authenticity, and confirm if you have a real or a fake product. Please use the in-app tutorial for additional instructions. Why use Checkifreal: • You can make sure the product you want to buy or will be using is authentic and thus safe to use • Help us fight counterfeiting • It’s free, there are no costs at all for you (with the acceptance of data usage) Requirements: In order to use Checkifreal, your phone will need a camera with autofocus and a working internet connection. Contact us for help: Our goal is to make authentication of products easy and accessible for all consumers. By enabling consumers to authenticate products themselves, we want to fight counterfeiting and in that way contribute to a world with better, safer products. We are dedicated to your satisfaction and welcome any feedback from you. If you have questions about the app, or maybe you have an issue with Checkifreal, please do not write a review of the app saying "it didn't work.". Instead, please join us in our mission against counterfeiting and send us your remarks at [email protected] and we'll do our best to help.

CheckIfReal APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the CheckIfReal APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 8dcfba837a2ecb9cd2d20a2df5353de4.
