iTunes App Store Customer Comments Often Useful: Why I Passed on Buying a Receipt Scanning App

The other thing I often mention here is what people are writing in the customer review comments section. These comments often point out especially good things about an app as well as potential issues. Here’s a good recent example where the comments helped me decide to not buy an app.
