Bad update

I have used this app to keep track of my NES collection for quite some time and to check for prices when shopping at local game stores.
Within the last few months, some update or changes were made to the app and now it is extremely annoying to use, as it freezes often and is hard to select individual game cartridges to read about. Do not even try searching for a game because the screens freeze and bleed into one another, creating a layered visual of images that make it impossible to navigate through.
While I once would rate this app as a 5/5, I now rate it as a 1/5.

No longer works with iPhone X

I bought this when it first came out and loved it. So I (grudgingly) understand why I had to reload all 600+ of my games due to the update/rework of the app. Ok. However, as others have said, the scrolling freezes, the collection list doesn’t work (says 1000 games, only four show).

I searched for another nes tracking app but struck out. I have no working list now to track down the final 60 or so. Or, if a fire comes, I’m screwed.

I’m holding out hope that you fix this, Pat. You are our only hope. I’ll go back to 5 stars and be very grateful! Thanks

Since the update...

Love this app! Perfect resource for nes collectors and enthusiasts. Since the latest update though none of the pages load correctly. If you really work at you can see most of what you want, but I sure hope these issues are fixed soon.

This used to be my favorite app

It’s depressing to try and open this app. I understand why everything was deleted in order to update for 2.0 but that’s not the problem. The app is literally unusable, and has been for a while now. Hopefully one day, it’ll
Be fixed and I can give it a 5. It it’s pretty useless at the moment.

Version 2.2 Buggy

Version 2.2 has trouble displaying the data properly on the iPhone screen (iPhone XR.) at the current time I cannot scroll through or search games or consoles , but the about page seems to work . It’s hard to explain but it seems the data is loaded into grids , but the overflow the top side of screen instead of filling the area .

😢

Unfortunately after updating it wiped my collection which is supposed facilitate adding new features. However none of those features are implemented so losing my collection status was worthless and the app doesn’t work at all after todays update.

Good app

App is great only have it 4 stars because I had to uninstall it and reinstall it after the latest update. Losing all my collection.

Locks up

I can’t get past the opening screen that says it’s connecting to the cloud. It locks up there. I left it running for around 10 minutes to see if it would ever connect and it never did.

New version is terrible

This app was absolutely amazing. New update came out and is horrible. Aside from purging ALL information entered from previous version the app is glitchy as hell. Can’t add systems or accessories. PLEASE FIX ASAP!!
