Constant sync issues

Unusable until the app will correctly sync with BGG

Broken

Can’t log in due to an error message about “too many calls being made to the BGG website”… mot likely the app is broken and needs an update.

Sign in issue

Wont let me sign into my bgg acount even though details are correct

Broken since last update

I loved 🥰 this app 5 stars all the way; until the last update.

Now:
I can’t open the details for any new game.
I can’t open the top rankings.
I can’t add new players
I get random white screens that cannot be closed without closing the app and restarting it.
It has also froze my phone x2.

I don’t know what changed but it seems the link to BGG may have been severed or some other code error.

I hope this review can bring light to the problem and hopefully we get a fix. I really want the old app experience back; it was great. It can be great again just have to hunt down some bugs. (I will edit this review once the problems are fixed)

Looks Great But Doesn’t Sync

I love the look of this app and how easy it makes it to log plays. However, I can’t get it to sync with BGG after the initial download. Whenever I try, the app says there’s a conflict and fails to download from BGG. I really wish I could use this app, but the developers need to fix the syncing issue

Terrible at syncing

App is ok and usable for local information storage but the syncing is terrible. It always has errors and Connot fully sync with BGG even after numerous attempts.

Syncing Issue

Nice looking app with a lot of seemingly cool features. My issue is it’s constantly out of sink with BGG. One of the most prevalent annoyances is if I add a game as being owned on the app when I go to BGG it says the game is in my collection but it has no status. It doesn’t show up as owned or anything.

Near Useless

The functionality of this is supposed to be to download your BGG library and keep it synced. Sadly, it fails in this. After the initial download I have never been able to sync the app. I make changes in the website, and when I try to sync the app it always, ALWAYS fails. It says there’s a discrepancy but shows the same number of items on both ends. So I tell it to download and it errors out on the download.

Fantastic App!

I love this app so much. Links with BGG so my whole collection of games was automatically available, I keep track of plays and cam create a list of games I want to play soon. Honestly there are a bunch of features some of them I haven’t used yet or discovered. I wish that it had a feature where I could connect with other friends who have the app. My core game group all have it but we have to record the plays separately, if there was a feature where we could be linked and only one of us had to record the game because it would share with everyone that would be so cool! Thank you for this app, I love it!

Could you add a feature?

I would love to have an option of a “Cover Flow” slideshow. Want to mount a screen in my game room to show all the game cover art to draw attention to the games we could play.
