USPS AR reinvents the act of opening your mail. When you see this icon on a piece of mail, just launch the app and align the image within the viewfinder to scan. Then watch as ...
All that money on the beautiful Irresistible catalog only to be failed in execution Don t send these to marketers without that hard judgement USPS was starting to have a chance to reposition itself Doesn t work BrandWizard
No instructions on first use couldn t get it to work on several images in mailer I received about this app USPSFail Be very thought poor execution Did they do ANY user testing before investing in this campaign Bad customer experience USPS Digital Fail Techie2013
Works great I think the person below me is just too stupid to use their cell phone Probably had it pointing at their face and wondered why it didn t do anything Works great Update Ideas
turn it side to side horizontal for this app to work otherwise you ll want to uninstall this app post haste Also what s with the generic and so basic name Kinda fun kinda simple to use Have at it courtesy of the USPS Make sure you turn your device H. McCrackin
When I click the app icon I just see floating little circles No menu What do you have to do to start using the app Hard to start app T45G
Last year and the year before we had so much fun with this but this year it won t work When I try to capture an image it says not for use with back camera I went back to the App Store and found the same app for iPhone and it still won t work Leave it to the government to take something simple and fun and make it unusable USPSAR granny's usable
Crashes won t load Crashes won t load nickname...13579
I need package tracking Instead I get an ap that does the lamest thing ever This is not competing with UPS and FedEx This is not even competing with Hello Kitty This is someone s child or mistress being handed a lucrative but otherwise useless contract with taxpayer money Sheesh We need a zero star rating for this Dumbest Ap Ever Mavisless
Useles app It will Say to align your artwork with brackets but all you SE is some circles bouncing from center and back with nothing else happening Deleted Not working Mircea B
A friend of mine with a Samsung Galaxy has problems with this app but my iPhone has no troubles Noticed CynM saying USPS uses taxpayer for these ventures Totally false I m a proud USPS employee and we stand alone with 0 taxpayer money Do your homework CynM before running your lip APP is too cute Way too cute no taxpayer money for this venture 51503 Resident
What a complete waste of time Completely non functional app Worthless Summerlander
What happen to the Peanut Gang Used to be good Now it s a gift wrapped box Was ok until they changed something Sowlbruder
Running 7 1 2 and it closes a second after opening it Useless App Crashes Anonymous veriewer
Won t even open Crash A sellers
Good it s free because it is totally worthless Worthless Curtaf
App won t even start I try to open it and it just crashes right away I already tried re installing Bug SalBlus
Normal stamp prices then they actually charge you for shipping and handling really I ll just stop off and buy some stamps when I need them That s a half an hour of my life I ll never get back Wasted time Eggwin98
Installed and all it does is crash constantly Crash dummy Shakala Poodle
I grew up with a dad who was a US postman I am so proud of USPS for taking this bold marketing step into our current tech infused way of life Most folks fail to realize how amazing our federal postal system really is even after all these decades how frequently we take it for granted Additionally people don t realize how close we come annually to literally losing our USPS mail delivery to our homes businesses The competitive parcel delivery market is working as a shining example of how free markets should work and has caused USPS to step up their complacent game create compelling marketing strategies advertising I personally am impressed with the app for my I phone the ease of use the classic design of the mailer with well loved Peanuts characters I m buying stamps today because of this marketing Relevant time saver for the holidays AND entertaining to boot Great job USPS Yay USPS Yes really CynM Mom to a brood
Perfect timing Great app from USPS The kids love it They point out daddy there s another post office sign Fun S4MAN1965
I received a postcard in the mail and scanned the front of it to see what it was about REALLY USPS you ve spent taxpayer money in an app that animates a photograph of a shipping box How on earth is this useful to anyone Fooled me once Really CynM
Don t work at all It don t take pictures it don t scan it don t do nothing it needs an upgrade seriously Not working Fruitness
Just got this app and haven t used it yet BUT right off the bat it asks about running location services all the time even while in the background I went to settings to set it for only when I m using the app The only 2 options are never and always Needs a 3rd option only when using the app UPDATE If it gets stuck in camera mode go to your settings click on USPS AR and you can switch the camera off Location services OMG1357924680
This is a cute app Looking forward to scanning various mailboxes and seeing what comes to life Just another way to brighten the holidays If you need lots of Post Office information go to the main USPS website Cute App SeekingRealTruth
It s one thing to ask for my location while I am using the app It s a completely other issue to want it all the time even when I am not using it You don t need my location WmH2
My 8 year old and I are both enjoying this app It s easy to use I am being told that I must pull over whenever he sees a USPS blue mail box Fun joolee70
Even if you do have the correct piece of mail it s pretty redundant as you can do everything on the website or through the regular app This app is not worth having on my phone taking up space Pointless without the correct piece of mail erikheerlein
This app is useless All it does is go back to the scan screen from which there is no exit What a waste of time Useless Mechev23
No directions stick on camera until you point it at the brochure and gives stupid video Forces you do do this to get to menu To bad I can t rate it zero stars Idiotic App BigEdInTX
You go to taking a picture mode and it locks up That s it It s Terrible Justgordon69
I think this is really but I wish you could save the ones you have looked at to view again later Cool APP n2snoopy
I m going to start addressing concerns expressed by other users 1 This is NOT the primary USPS app Use USPS Mobile to track packages find post offices determine prices and other postal service related things This app is a tech demo for a new ad service the USPS will be rolling out 2 The USPS is self funded No taxpayer money was wasted in this tech demo As for the app itself it works great It s incredibly neat seeing A R Come to advertising The tech demos I saw at the Postal convention in Anaheim were awesome I can t wait for more integration with actual advertising I am very impressed Although more explanation should be provided in app to limit confusion and the interface could be more intuitive Given that I have not had a single problem using this app with the demo material I received works as described Hope this review helps Misunderstanding about function ATG!$
I just want to be able to schedule a pick up and track packages What exactly is this app for The postal service needs to come up with a more useful app Why Un-happy Kristal
Embraces modern technology in a fun way It definitely gets me thinking about where the closest USPS box is Good work Awesome KuntryBoi4Lyfe
Thought I d order my Christmas stamps through the app to save time What a mistake It took 8 days from my order being placed to receive the stamps Should have just gone to the local post office Very disappointed in the turn around time Terrible stamp delivery Teach and learn
What the heck Worked once then when I tried again the screen froze up And their are no instructions or buttons or settings Worked once MsZzz71
It is fun The opening page could use some info explaining what you re supposed to scan If you didn t read the mailer from USPS you would be clueless Works fine Rjs18343
Totally have no idea how to use it Why can t give us an example How to use Jamilycl

The other one star ratings werent kidding When you turn on the app it yes to access your camera then tells you to scan the image framed with brackets Which image What brackets I tried this with different pieces of mail and nothing happened Plus there wasnt any place to swipe to or tap to get help The geometric shape in one corner is for the flash control on your camera I must be missing the point because this seems pointless Wha
It doesnt do anything besides show Christmas lights on a mailbox Dont
This is a highly entertaining app Open it point it at a usps logo and smile Fun
augmented reality part is cute but what else can I use this for Low Utility
Our tax dollars at work Wasted as usual ARE YOU KIDDING
Its a bit buggy and one can trip thru the interface so it would be nice if they had a smoother interface for sure That said pretty cool to be able to map post offices and collection boxes Even accurate pickup times for those collection boxes Hey Vicky VM USPS hasnt taken tax dollars since the early 80s so youre not paying for anything unless you want to use their services via sending mail receiving is free Collection Box Info
I downloaded app and was unable to get past trying to take a picture Doesnt work on iPad
I loaded this App thinking great a helpful App from the post office Wrong All I can get are the brackets to scan cant get to anything else No home page no way to get to any of the other functions This App needs work Doesnt work
I got the christmas mailing today and downloaded this to try it I gotta admit thats pretty cool I cant wait to try it on the collection boxes Hope it works on the boxes Way to do something cool USPS So far pretty cool
This is an app that serves no purpose No wonder the post office is losing money and wasting tax payers hard earned money Delete Pointless and waste of developer talent
Video starts to work then it freezes are stops and nothing else u cant do anything please fix asap Not working
Totally have no idea how to use it Why cant give us an example How to use
Embraces modern technology in a fun way It definitely gets me thinking about where the closest USPS box is Good work Awesome
Thought Id order my Christmas stamps through the app to save time What a mistake It took 8 days from my order being placed to receive the stamps Should have just gone to the local post office Very disappointed in the turn around time Terrible stamp delivery
just a happy app this only works with usps items must align picbrackets with a real mailbox and center the logo of the eagle and united states postal service on the side the animation is really cool and unique sounds like it works on other post office paraphernalia as well very cool animation
dont listen to all these bitter peoples reviews this is just a fun little app to brighten your day showed it to my wife and kids and it brought a smile to their faces thanks usps you have never failed me awesome and fun
Installed this app twice and deleted this app twice I tried the first time and then waited a few weeks and installed it again to see if it got any better and the answer is nope This app is just a waist of time kws1969
Locks into the pic mode and wont let you go to home page set up an account then it didnt recognize me then tried to set up again of of course my email was taken Tried to buy stamps 7 times and kicked me out each time I will just get them at the store and use FX for my shipping needs But hey my girls loved the little cartoons when they scanned the mailer about all its good for Dont do it
I dont get it Why would I want to see an animated box open with random stuff come out In a usps flier I saw it said not sure which size box Use your USPS AR app to find the right fit As soon as you open the app the camera comes on and theres nothing else you can do Dont get it
How do you use this app How do you use this app
I got the new SpiderMan promotional mail today and downloaded this app to check out the experience Real neat I cant wait to see where USPS takes this technology Very cool
Pretty neat Everything is right here I love it Very easy to use Im not sure of the negative ratings Works fine Great app
I tried this on my Spiderman mail and it worked A couple of quibbles for slower connections I wish the video would continue loading or at least show you that it is still loading after it recognizes the mail you have pointed it at so you dont feel you have to hold the camera pointed at it the whole time Plus after the video is finished playing I wish there were a replay button so you can see it again if you wish Nice but some suggestions
Downloaded from mailer just to see how it worked Tested locations to see if it would find our nearby Staples Nope Constantly asking to use current location even after you agreed Bottom line useless Cute if you dont want any useful output but a huge waste of usps resources to create and promote otherwise This app is a joke
I like the USPS best when it comes to getting a physical object from point A to B but this app is a desperate attempt to justify bringing me a piece of paper to tell me something Pointless
What the heck Worked once then when I tried again the screen froze up And their are no instructions or buttons or settings Worked once

delete Thats it
Fun I havent seen this type of animation before
The app is cool and worked fabulous for me I believe the reviews with single stars may not understand augmented reality AR technology It works with AR images not just any picture and must be positioned just right for the reader to use Download the app and play with the collection boxes I easily ordered priority boxes too Great job USPS xoML Fun Fabulous
