  • Super helpful

    A little late now but I’m finally getting into TBOI and this app has been a huge help. I’m on console so I can’t install any mods to help me see what item are and what they do but this app makes it very easy. It’s very easy to use and explains the items well even showing synergies. I can tell a lot of effort went into making this and it’s free! I payed the extra $2.50 for ad free (there wasn’t many to begin with) and to hopefully move it along in case for whatever reason something suddenly changed in TBOI. My only complaint is that certain items have new sprites and charge times and that hasn’t been updated but this is hardly noticeable. Good app

    Hi, on the item detail there’s a share icon on the top right, you can report an error/improvement to that item. I believe it’s all up to date in terms of sprites and charge times, but please let me know specifically if you find anything outdated! Thanks for your feedback and support! - João
  • Amazing, just one little thing.

    I just got the app and am already loving it due to the bag of crafting section and the fact that it has console support, but I have just one little suggestion, a spindown dice calculator. Personally I only remember the REALLY good spindowns (such as lil abbadon to c section) but it would be really nice to know if something turns into something good with multiple spindowns or cat battery. Idk maybe something how like EID shows the next three spindowns or more, but that’s just me. (Yes I know you can just look at the previous items from one you search up I just think this would be more ease of access).

    Thank you for your feedback, I’m working on something to show just that! Thanks - João
  • Great app

    This is a must have app to play this game. I use it constantly. I appreciate being able to track items I’ve gotten and I like that the developer is so dedicated to the app. Its very clear and simple, which is great. The free version is very fair and provides a lot of benefits. I haven’t encountered any bugs but I have a few requests which would help me when using it:

    1. I have not found the camera option works for me. When I use it, it never shows the right items. I know this is probably my user error and the fact that it is just hard to program. It obviously gets close though because it’s trying to match the colors.

    2. Adjust the search bar to allow for typos or easy typing. Example: if I search “Mom’s razor” and i type in “Moms razor” (no apostrophe) the item won’t come up.

    3. Include instructions for how to use controls on switch, pc, etc. A diagram would be really helpful to reference.

    Thank you very much for your work, it’s really appreciated and makes this game approachable for me :)

    Thanks so much for the review! About the camera recognition feature, that’s really strange since I’ve been getting really good feeback so far, have you tried taking a photo and then open that photo on the app? Feel free to send me an email via the in app support feature and I can try to help out. The search, that’s something I’ll address soon. As for the controls, If I’m not mistaken I think you can see that info on the game options. Thank you for your feedback! - João
  • Freaking Fantastic

    Sometimes I’ll send an additional tip even though I’ve already purchased the ad-free version. I havent gone a single Binding of Isaac run without using this app. Makes keeping track of everything 100x easier, especially given how massive the game is now. Thanks for keeping up with the updates man, you’re awesome. Only change I’d like to see is being able to check item descriptions from the bag of crafting menu without having to reset the seed number

  • Great Guide

    I love this game and throughout the beginning with this it is great to know what items can do, what bosses can be in the boss room, what characters can do and what their stats are, etc…
    Plus with a little extra fun if you put a few bucks into this app you can change and personalize it a little. You do not need to buy anything in this app or constantly watch ads, just sending a tip helps creator do more with their work.

  • Pretty Handy

    Just getting into The Binding of Isaac on iOS and Switch. I’ve found myself going back and forth between this companion app and either version of the game I’m Playing. There are so many items that I can’t keep track of what they do (a good thing). Especially handy in showing synergies and what drops not to pick up. Another small note, the app tracks what items you have and haven’t gotten yet (manually). I’d recommend the paid version of this app if you’re new to the game like me and hate ads.

  • A NO BRAINER FOR BEGINNERS-VETERANS

    Given that this game essentially gives out zero information about anything, this guide is an absolute must have. You can tell that the guy(s) who made this are not only talented programmers, but lovers of The Binding of Isaac” as well. No stone is left unturned and all the bases are covered when it comes to giving you all the information you need when it comes to this game. I also love how customizable the app is. From changing the app icon to selecting which DLC packs to include, it’s all ready to be tailored to the players experience. Easy 5 star app and worth every single penny. (Pun not intended)

  • Best source for all your Isaac info.

    I used to use the wiki all the time, but one of my friends recommended this app to me. The fact I can have the items organized by color, or pull up the info of monsters I’m looking for in my beastiary, the app completely outclasses the wiki. Its ease of use and detailed descriptions are perfect for what I want in a handy guide to use while I’m in the middle of a run, let alone when I was trying to figure out the alt path when repentance came out. Truly a great tool.

  • Best Isaac app I’ve found

    I LOVE this app. It’s a great app because it gas everything. Not to mention, it’s not complicated at all. All you have to do is just click menu and it has Al the items, pickups, trinkets, and stuff like that. It also has bosses, mini bosses, characters and tainted characters. Also I was surprised when I saw that there was a specific one for bag of crafting and even seeds. I had no idea there were Easter eggs and I just love how they even put if you can get achievements or not on the seeds. Gives a detailed, but short description of characters, seeds, bosses, mini bosses, stuff like that.

  • Is good app, worth buying

    I love this app and use it every time I play Binding. It is absolutely worth buying…I wish I bought it sooner to get rid of the annoying ads.

    Some things I love:
    - The searching algorithms, especially approximate searching (This is my favorite feature. Short of mods, this is the best way to find the name of things.)
    - Completion tracking (so fun to tap and fill in everything…like popping bubble wrap)
    - Quantity and quality of information (There is much in Binding, this helps manage the muchness.)

    What I wish it had:
    - Percentages/tables for beggars, machines, etc. drops (I go to the wiki for this)

    Other than adding even more information, I have nothing negative to say about this app. Clearly lots of thought put in and it keeps improving! It is perfect for playing the game without mods (or with, I ain’t judging).
