Great tool!

This tool works exactly as advertised. Works great for classrooms or events where you don’t want to bother with a website and want a visually stunning buzzer.

Good app

Works well and is worth the $2.

Broken app

We've bought it and it is not working...

Worst game

Worst game ever got it to work the first day and then the next day it quit not worth what I paid for it

Sorry one star unless it actually....

Sorry one star unless it actually do what it promises and it's a great promise.

The promise is that you can conceivably play a board game, say like ... family feud.

A buzzer would be ideal. Check.
Well two buzzer. One per player. Check.
A host controls the play. Check.
Various play modes. Check.
Actually works.... ahhh NO.

First opening it asks if I want to"Host" or "play". Great. I pick host. Open next itouch. Start app. Pick "play".... nothing. Try several times. Fail.

Now it asks me play
1. First to buzz
2. Multiple choice
3. Free response

I select first to buzz. It says "waiting for players"
Open other itouch. I get the same choices. I select first to buzz. Only now supposedly it still thinks I am "hosting" or something and says "waiting for players". Snafu. No cancel to restart from beginning.

I will delete and reinstall and try again.

If it fails again I want my money back.

Update.
Deleted the app and reinstalled on both devices. It seem to be waiting for a question and likely the third participant. So I'll try it again with our third device. It it actually works. I'll raise the stars.

Update 2
Just added the third person and it had three entirely different conditions.
1. Looking for players
2. Looking for host
3. Blank screen with no appropriate UI

Fail.

poor app

The developers had good intentions but they got bored and worked on something else. The app has no reset ability, no way to discover new devices, and no help or information within the app. If it were free it wouldn't be worth it but charging $1.99 is criminal.

Durchaus brauchbar

Habe mir das Programm für eine "große" Quizveranstaltung geholt, ca. 40 Teilnehmer in vier Gruppen, jede Gruppe ein iPhone.
Funktionsumfang ist in Ordnung und die Bedienung der App ist leicht.
Problem, man braucht ein vorhandenes W-Lan. Es wäre Besser, wenn die Geräte ein eigenes Netz aufbauen könnten. Außerdem musste vor jeder neuen Runde überprüft werden, ob alle Geräte einen grünen Buzzer haben, sprich bereit sind, ist bei einer großen Gruppe mit entsprechendem Lärmpegel auf Dauer schwierig. Ich musste den "Rundenstarter" teilweise drei bis vier mal senden bis alle Geräte bereit waren. Es kam auch bei einigen Geräten zum Absturz der App.
Mein Fazit:
Eine schöne App zum Buzzern mit Anzeige wer Erster, Zweiter usw. war. Freie Textantwort und multiple choice möglich. Sehr einfache Bedienung. In kleineren Gruppen durchaus Brauchbar aber da es nicht immer stabil läuft ist es in großen Gruppen >40 Mitspieler ein gewagtes Experiment. Wenn es zu Verzögerungen durch Ausfall der Technik kommt steigt die Lautstärke an und der Spielspaß geht verloren. Wagt man es dennoch, sollte man ein stabiles W-Lan aufbauen und vorher ausreichend testen und nicht vergessen, dass iPhone ist kein Buzzer zum draufhauen :-)

Wenn es etwas stabiler ist und unabhängig von einem externen W-Lan läuft gibt es auch noch den 5ten Stern.

Almost useful

Can you add support for Bluetooth connection? Needing the wifi connection seems unnecessary.

Doesn

Tested with four different iPhones on three different wireless networks. Twice we got it working, but only for a couple minutes before the connections dropped. The phones were within feet of the access point and the only devices using the access point.

App should also have some debugging/configuration settings to help it find devices correctly.

Wasted $8 (four phones)
