Many players have old lottery tickets lying around the house that may hold value. And millions of winning lottery tickets go unclaimed every year.

A new app called "Lotto-Lotto" makes sure that you will never miss another winning ticket again.

Brett Jacobson created this app which allows users to check tickets for every lottery in the US. All you have to do is take a picture of the lottery ticket and the app does the rest.

The app allows you to see the drawing date, numbers, and results of the submitted lottery tickets as well as the lottery game.

The app even tells you the closest location to accept your winnings and track results of previous lotteries.
