Awesome!
The program is great. Does what you expect and does it well. I love the ability to full custom build mechs. We play in conjunction with the TTRPG so being able to personalize is the most important feature.
Had a slight problem displaying the mech sheets and I reached out to the developer. I sent the help request at around 1 PM on a Saturday and it was fixed within a hour. Best customer support I have seen in over ten years.

Perfect!
This is great! I use it to keep track of my collection, it lets me separate my forces and build lances and pilots. Unlike the other post says, you can totally change up the pilots skills and it calculates the adjusted BV. Produces PDFs to print out for your games. It’s great.
Great app, hopefully more will be developed
Enjoy using this so far for me has and vehicles. But there is no conventional or aerotech fighters yet. Hope they will be included one day
Hoping you put aircraft in one day soon.

Must Have App
This app has been so helpful as a new Battletech player (~7 months, 18 miniatures). It’s so easy to organize and reorganize formations once you put your mechs in, and it’s so nice that the app adds up the BV for you and shows you pretty much every stat imaginable. Having an easily changeable format for lances and companies is a life changer. It’s also fun to get into an in-universe mindset when making units. It’s also super neat that it has both classic and AS elements.

Finally a Btech builder app for iOS!
I played Battletech a long time ago but fell away from the game for almost 30 years. I have have generally avoided building some starter scenarios for my local friends due to the difficulty in building and collating several units for my friends to pick from for a starter game. With this app I built 6 custom groups of mechs (from 1 Madcat, to a lance of smaller mechs) without any real difficulty. And now I just have to hit "print" and the app will print Total War full Mech data sheets for each unit!
I like that I can upload my personal inventory using the scanner in my phone. I have not built any organizations yet.
There seem to be a lot of weird custom units in the search engine that I don't understand. Not a problem for a veteran player, but I had to go back to Sarna.net to check some load outs that were different for no discernible reason. But those mechs tend to be easy to identify for veteran players. There are also tabs like organizations and such that I THINK I understand, but I'm not clear on. I missed everything after the Clan Invasion! Maybe a tutorial or easy to find read me file would be a help?
I highly recommend this app for any Battletech player. It's made jumping back in that much easier!

great app with a couple of issues
i love using this app to build lances and find specific mechs, because it has detailed information on most of them it seems. however, i notice that the “advanced search” function as an issue with filtering for specific weapons. The Weapons search field reads “Weapon Help: This field has been disabled”
Additionally, I notice that some times certain mechs have incorrect weapons info, such as Black Knight BL-9-KNT, which is listed on this app with a Targeting Computer when the official source doesn’t list it as such. This has created issues when using this app in a public setting.

Thank you for the feedback! The targeting computer indicator for BL-9-KNT in the app is indeed wrong and will be corrected shortly. I’m working on re-enabling the weapons search. If you find any more incorrect data please feel to reach out and I’ll fix it.
Phenomenal, fragile app
Brilliant tool for the Battletech table top. Unfortunately, it crashed 3(!!) times in the first five minutes of use. Really wish it was more stable.
Response from developer
Thank you for the feedback. Please feel free to reach out to me on Facebook or through the email in the setting about the crashes. I will work to address them.
Truly a hidden gem
This is a great app for IOS users to find and build lists with. No you can’t track damage or do everything through this app but it has been extremely useful to sort through all of the different eras and tech levels for the mechs I love to run. I can tell the developers actually care about this project a lot with constant updates to fix and develop the app. It some some bugs but given time this app will surpass other unit compendiums with ease of use and utility.
