Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about antique identification and exploration.
How accurate is the antique identification?
Antique Identifier uses AI to compare visible clues such as style, materials, craftsmanship, marks, condition, and design patterns. It can provide a strong first-pass identification for common and well-documented antiques, but rare, valuable, or unusual items should still be verified by an appraiser or specialist.
What types of antiques can the app identify?
The app can help identify many antiques and collectibles, including furniture, ceramics, glassware, jewelry, textiles, books, artwork, decorative objects, and other vintage items. Clear photos of marks, materials, construction details, and condition clues improve the result.
How do I take the best photo for antique identification?
Use good lighting, a plain background, and clear focus. Capture the full item, then add close-ups of maker marks, signatures, labels, construction details, materials, damage, repairs, and any distinctive design features. Multiple angles usually produce a better identification than one image.
How does the subscription work?
Subscriptions are billed weekly or annually at the rate selected in your subscription plan. The subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage your subscription through your device's app store settings.
What features are included in the Premium subscription?
Premium subscribers get unlimited access to special app features, including unlimited identifications, detailed antique specifications, historical background information, AI chat assistance, material detection analysis, and an ad-free experience. Annual Premium members may also receive priority identification, advanced collection tools, and early access to new features.
Can I track my identified antiques?
Yes. The app keeps an identification history so you can revisit your identified antiques and collectibles later. This helps you manage a collection, compare similar objects, and keep notes about items you have scanned.
How is my data and privacy protected?
Photos you upload are used for identification and product improvement. Your personal information and collection data should be handled according to the app privacy policy and should not be shared with third parties without consent.
