App crashes

The app crashes immediately any and every time I select the settings tab. As a result, I am unable to access the settings. Also, when I uninstall and reinstall the app, I am still logged in—somehow the app keeps the login info, somewhere, even after the app and app data are deleted. As a result, I am unable to sign out as I am unable to access the settings tab without the app crashing.

Great app but has a problem

The app is great not gonna lie but has a problem when making a game. It only lets you make a game from what it has available and if you do try and have a custom name with your custom elements, it gets renamed to Game Name.

Very nice app great customer service

I really like this app. I had one issue with the app hanging when I started a game. I used the feedback form & developer got back to me next day with a solve! I love all the items you can track including adding more of your own. The one thing that is missing is historic stats, which should include the various items you can track. I would want to see all my scores, along with my highest score, but also max health I ended with, max level, max hit points, etc.

Overall, great app!

Cool tool

Like the flexibility to track lots of things. Don’t love how hard it is to edit. Can you make it so we can just up/down score right on main screen rather than having to navigate a tiny window each time. Considering how often numbers are going to be adjusted in a game a swipe/tap/ etc should change it. Example:goodgame app
