How to Scan Properly

1

Good Lighting

Take the photo in a well-lit area. Natural daylight or bright indoor lighting works best. Avoid shadows on the cigar band.

2

Focus on the Band

Make sure the cigar band is clearly visible and in focus. The band contains the most identifying information for accurate recognition.

3

Clean Background

Place the cigar against a plain, contrasting background. This helps our AI better identify the cigar features.

4

Capture the Barcode

If the cigar box has a barcode, include it in the photo. Barcodes provide instant and accurate identification.

5

Hold Steady

Keep your phone steady when taking the photo to avoid blur. A clear, sharp image produces the best results.

Pro Tip

For best results, photograph the entire cigar with the band clearly visible. You can crop the image after uploading to focus on the most important details.
