Overall, the Smoostart Microchip Scanner is a reliable, efficient tool for anyone needing to scan and manage pet microchip information. Its compatibility with multiple microchip formats, data storage capacity, and ease of use make it a valuable asset in animal care and management.

Works wonderfully! Such a great item for such a great price! Works perfectly with stray and feral cats — even tested it on my own pets & it shows their microchip number, which I can then look up on various websites online. Highly recommend!

Worked great. We were able to scan a dog we found living on the streets for over a month and it detected a chip right away and showed us the microchip number on the screen. We searched the microchip number which showed us when it was last updated, the dog’s name and the breed.

The scanner worked very quickly and well to retrieve the 15-digit microchip numbers from two cats. I could not get the scanner to connect to Notepad on my Windows 11 computer as the instructions state. Here's how it connected easily to my Android phone with the Simple Text Editor app: 1. Download the Simple Text Editor app from Google Play and open it. 2. Connect the reader to the phone via a USB-C to USB-C cable. 3. Power on the reader. Once it powers up and shows USB in the upper left corner, then press and hold the orange button on the reader for 3 seconds. 4. The chip numbers show up in the Simple Text Editor app on your phone.

The seller says to make sure that your chip is compatible with the scanner. However, without having my original chip information (which is a large reason why I bought this), I had no way to know if my cats and dogs had EMID OR FDX-B (ISO1784/85) chips. Here is what I can say. My oldest dog was chipped in 2011 in Washington state. My community cat was chipped in 2012 or 2014 in Indiana. All animals except my youngest two where chipped at different vets. All chips came up in seconds and all of them show FDX-B (15 digit). I need to update my contact information, so after scanning and saving the chip numbers, I used the AAHA ORG lookup to find what company the chips were registered under. The site let's you know which company has the chip registration information. It also gives the website and phone number you need to contact to update or transfer the chip! This was incredibly easy to use, has the convenience of c compatible charging, and is way faster than the animal control scanners. This was well worth the money!!

I bought the Smoostart Pet Microchip Scanner with high hopes, envisioning a future where I'd effortlessly identify every missing pet or misplaced pig in my vicinity. After all, how hard could it be? Apparently, quite hard! The moment I powered up this sleek black marvel, I imagined it as a high-tech wand capable of revealing the hidden identities of animals. Instead, it turned into a digital game of "Tag, You're Not It." Despite my valiant attempts with three different tags, the scanner was like a stubborn genie refusing to grant any wishes. Each time I waved it around, it flatly refused to acknowledge the tags, proclaiming with an air of digital disdain, “No tag found.” If this scanner were a character in a movie, it would be the overly dramatic villain with a flair for theatrical misdirection. Unfortunately, unlike a villain in a film, it doesn't come with a redemption arc. Instead, it left me with an empty feeling and a growing pile of animal tags. In the end, the Smoostart Pet Microchip Scanner is perfect if your goal is to master the art of scanning nothingness. For those seeking a reliable way to read pet microchips, you might want to keep searching for a scanner that doesn’t see every tag as a figment of its imagination.

Easy to use and keeps the reading on the screen long enough to record - unlike some other brands!
