What is NoteLens?

Identifies banknotes from a photo and keeps a private collection record stored on your device.

NoteLens identifies banknotes from a photo or an existing image, reporting details such as country, denomination, year and serial number, and marks anything not visible as "Not visible". Identified notes can be saved to a collection on the device, with your own grade, price, date and notes, and a built-in reference guide covers banknote features and grading.

Pricing. NoteLens is free, with no in-app purchases on the App Store.

Description

NoteLens helps you work out which banknote you're holding, and keeps a private record of the notes you collect.

IDENTIFY A NOTE FROM A PHOTO

Photograph a banknote, or pick a photo you already have. NoteLens reads what it can see: country, currency, denomination, year, series, issuing authority, material, serial number and design. Each detail is labelled with where it came from. Anything the photo doesn't show is marked "Not visible" rather than guessed, and NoteLens tells you when a photo is too dark or blurred to read well.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

  • No account, no sign-in and no ads.
  • Your collection stays on your device.
  • A photo leaves your phone only when you ask for an identification, and its location and camera details are removed first.
  • Anonymous usage and crash reports stay off unless you choose to share them.

GOOD TO KNOW

Identification is an AI estimate made from a photo. NoteLens can't confirm that a note is genuine, and it doesn't give market values or professional grades. For anything valuable, ask a dealer or grading service. Identification needs an internet connection.
