About this app

Are you tired of searching for your plastic reward card while checking out at the store? Are you looking for a free solution which will not take your information?

Loyalty Card Keychain is a application which will store your barcode-based loyalty cards on your phone. The application is open source and tries to do one thing well: manage your cards!

New cards can be added in a snap. Either use your camera to capture the barcode, or type in the number. When the barcode is loaded at the store and displayed it can be scanned with a modern barcode scanner. (Some stores use older barcode scanners, such as flatbed scanners, instead of image scanners. These cannot read the smartphone's display. Instead, request the clerk to type in the number manually).

The application requires very few permissions, and never attempts to access the Internet. There is an option to backup your cards to local storage. From there you can send the backup somewhere safe.

Ratings and reviews

An excellent app, easy to use and view, without the interference of ads. Two requests. First, could you provide an option to password-protect entry into the app? That would add security if someone were to enter my phone. Second, would it be possible for you to add photo-capture of front and back of cards? These would truly make it a five-star app. Congratulations on the excellent work so far.

I had to get a new app after my previous one wouldn't work after my phone upgrade. Downloaded three different apps of this type and this was the easy winner. Simple interface, easy to upload all my cards, and nothing fancy. A few cards added a number or letter at the end (easily edited), and it was weird having to select the style of scanning code (makes me nervous if I did it right), so we'll see how it works in practice.

I recently had to upgrade my trusty Note 4. Barclone, an app that I had used for loyalty cards is no longer maintained and its backup restore function no longer works. Loyalty Card Keychain is everything I was looking for in a replacement: ad-free, local backups, low footprint, scan and manual capture options, flexible UI ... with a card capture facility that is better than the app I had been using. And it thus far has performed flawlessly. I'm very pleased.
