SMOK's 2-Step Product Authenticity Check - Vape101
Back in March of 2017 SMOK introduces its new anti-counterfeiting system mobile app called IVPS Tour; using two QR codes A and B and a mobile app that can be downloaded on IOS and Android. This was because the numerous amounts of counterfeit/clone products were affecting not only SMOK but the consumer as well. SMOK claims that this new method of anti-counterfeiting is 99% accurate, as SMOK's press release states in the link.
How to do the 2-Step Authenticity Check? Please follow the instruction below.
Step 1: Download the IVPS Tour App (Version 2.2.1 or later)
It is a little tricky to download since the application is not directly available to download in the app store. Below is a link for downloading the application to your phone.

How can the product be original if the inside package can be replaced easily. Just take out the original package inside the box. Replace with fake occ inside the box. And sell it. The original box will give the authenticity to an original product.

Download and install the IVPS Tour app from the Google Play Store. Open the app,select explore on the menu icon in the upper left.Allow the app to have access. Then,when the scanner is activated, scan code A.If you are forwarded to the activate part,lightly remove the scratch off area,then scan code be. If you scan code A and receive a message indicating that it is not a Genuine Smok Product,then I would return the product to the purchase location. *Note: Sometimes the app scans the bar code,which may show a non authentic product. Make sure you are scanning the Code for authenticity, so that a correct result is provided. )
I use this app and check the authenticity of all my Smok products and recommend IVPS Tour for assuring Authentic Smok Products.
