Played a game where low score wins, however it registered that the highest score wins and there’s no way to change it. Would be nice to be able to change settings so low score wins. ### 4/5 — Pretty good app! *2022-05-28, version 1.5.3* It is slightly difficult to log stats for cooperative or other non-score based games, and I wish there were a way to view individual stats as well, so you could see what games people do best at. Overall though, very happy with it. ### 4/5 — Awesome *2022-02-24, version 1.5.1* This app is awesome. I can now admire my collection any time and plan my game nights so much easier. I do have one complaint I can not select player count 5 it’s skips from 4 to 6. ### 4/5 — Sync issues *2022-01-23, version 1.4.5* Seems cool and I entered all my games through the app but it’s not syncing back to bgg. Not sure what I’m doing wrong. Sync button says it’s syncing. (Update) After learning the sync only goes one way, now that I know that this app is, in fact, very cool. I used what I entered here to enter on bgg and ran the sync again and now everything is current. Nicely done ### 4/5 — Pretty much exactly what I was looking for *2022-01-07, version 1.4.5* Been looking for an app like this for a long time. Wanted something nice and easy to use that I could have on my phone for viewing my collection and logging plays, and this does that almost perfectly. There are still a few little bugs, or small things I would tweak. But for the most part, this is a great app for turning BGG into a mobile friendly interface. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2024-10-12, version 1.15.1* Tried a year or two, couldn’t download my info from BGG. Tried again today, same thing. ### 3/5 — Geektastic *2023-08-10, version 1.11.4* I love the way this app looks and I use it all the time. However there are a couple of things I wish it would do: I wish that I could add expansions together with the original game when I log the game. Also I wish it would upload to board game geek. And it would be fun to be able to share game stats. ### 3/5 — Needs better import features *2023-05-04, version 1.10.1* I have already been using bgstats app to track my games which syncs with BGG. However this app has no way to import my plays from either location. It will be impossible for me to start using this app without any import feature available. App looks great though! ### 3/5 — Great app…could be better *2023-01-02, version 1.7.5* Awesome app - would love the following updates: -Barcode scanner to input games -Pictures when searching -Ability to add more than just points for scores, for example, dollar amounts or anything not points. ### 3/5 — Great start *2022-01-24, version 1.4.5* I love the potential for this app, but I’m having a few issues. One: I can’t figure out how to ADD a friend, the app just tells me I have none, which is sad and untrue. Also when I log a game I am unable to save a typed score - I have to spin the little number dial thing to get high scores to save. I really appreciate that it shows all expansions, including promo cards, for every game so I know what I’m missing! And, of course, that it links to my BGG profile. The search function works very well and shows all related items and editions. It does not deal with typos well for some reason. It highlights a word my phone doesn’t know, but doesn’t allow me to correct it like my phone usually does, so I have to use a workaround to search for games. One thing that would be nice is to be able categorize and search my owned games by mechanisms. ### 4/5 — Great little app for board gamers *2024-11-29, version 1.15.1* As the title reads, this is great for gamers. App tracks games played with friends, the number of wins and losses for each player in any particular game. It can track coop and competitive games. One little issue makes it not perfect though. It hasn’t been updating my ever growing roster of games recently when I try to update it through the settings menu. ### 4/5 — Lots of potential *2023-07-11, version 1.11.2* A few features and changes were made recently that improve user interaction. Greatly appreciated, thank you! The « players » section should be improved next. It seems like there is the potential to change the avatar or at least the colour of the cute little monster, bit this can’t be done right now. Also, it would be great if when taping on the player you could also see all the games played by that player. Next, it would be really nice to be able to get some simple stats with the info entered in the play log. Keep up the good work developping! ### 4/5 — The best board game app, but… *2023-01-26, version 1.8.1* Apparently the developer, as well as other reviewers, have mentioned how they can’t sync to board game geek due to limitations, however there are other apps that do this without a glitch. BGG Catalog, for example, not only syncs your games, but your plays as well! This is a well designed app; its aesthetic, design consistency, it’s a beautiful app, but I’m not sure why the sync is an issue? Hopefully he can figure out! ### 4/5 — Great app! Need friends connect to be perfect *2023-01-18* Love the app, visually pleasing and simple to use. Let me connect to my fiends to see their games and would be perfect **Developer response:** Hi Joeb151, It's great to hear that you're enjoying the app and you find it easy to use. Would you mind reaching out to us on feedback@progrunning.net (or on the Discord server - link can be found on the app's about page) to share more details on how would you see connecting with friends feature work in the app? ### 4/5 — Solid App Overall *2022-12-28, version 1.7.5* This is a pretty good app for keeping my sanity at bay while I try to maintain my collection and archive scores. It keeps track of your games from BGG and your scores with friends. It shows your wishlist from BGG too. One issue I’ve been facing is getting every rank for my stockpile to show. Half will show but not all which is irritating when I want to gawk over my Top 100 games. Once that is fixed, I’ll probably change my rating to 5 stars. Regardless of this, it’s been a huge help with my addiction lol. ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2025-11-28, version 1.15.2* I got this app because my gaming group had a hard time remembering who won last. I found this and it has made us more honest with who won and lost. It is also nice to see how many plays a games gets! Thank you for developing such an amazing app!! ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing! *2025-07-18, version 1.15.1* Best collection app I’ve ever seen! ### 5/5 — Must have *2023-02-25, version 1.8.1* Love logging every game! ### 5/5 — Great Design and Functionality *2022-04-07, version 1.5.3* An amazing product that syncs with BGG very well. I look forward to tracking our groups board game wins on here as well as keeping tracking of the games in our collections. Definitely an app that all board game players need to have! ### 4/5 — Great App to Organize Games *2022-11-17, version 1.7.2* Big fan of this app. Helps when planning a board game night and keeping an eye on my collection and wishlist games. It’s quite fun to use especially because you can add Friends games. One piece of feedback would be to allow for a sort option in the collections setting to sort by last game logged and sort by total games logged (it’ll help ensure games don’t get too dusty). --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
