Quick overview
BankSnap — Banknote Identifier is an Android app made for currency enthusiasts. It streamlines recognizing paper money and helps users organize and manage their collections using on-device image analysis and cloud-backed reference data.
How recognition works
The app uses machine-learning visual recognition to match photos against a large catalog of banknotes. You can take a picture with your device or upload an existing image. Built-in photo tools (crop, brightness, contrast, sharpening) help clarify images so the matcher can return more reliable results, including country and issue date information for each find.
Collection management & value tracking
Beyond identification, BankSnap provides tools to catalog your holdings. Add notes, photos, and metadata to each entry, monitor the estimated worth of your collection, and keep an organized inventory that makes buying, selling, or insuring items easier.
