The app worked for me too.  There has to be enough light in the room for the app  to work.

I'm not sure what the lighting was like in the room, and I definitely didn't have to tap anything to start the scan. I don't have any other money readers on my phone, but I thought the eyenote app did work, and it's free, so there's no harm in checking it out.
