### 2/5 — Fix glitches

*2023-03-24*

Doesn’t show added pictures just a blank. I purchased the full version too. Seems like a glitch.

### 5/5 — Very cool!

*2022-11-08, version 2.0.1*

Such a simple but cool idea. I really like it

### 5/5 — Very Simple and Powerful App

*2022-09-27, version 1.9.4*

I find this app to be the best app to quickly track the games in my library and helps to keep my focus on playing only a game or two at a time. 

Only recommendation is to build in functionality with HowLongToBeat. This would help me further prioritize the order of games that I play. Would keep me from needing to go to 2 different places to track my games.

### 4/5 — Is decent

*2022-07-02, version 1.9.4*

This app has a lot of potential and I fully support the creator but um I can’t delete any games off my list

### 5/5 — A must have for gamers!

*2022-06-13, version 1.9.4*

Great app that I truly think is worth the premium purchase price for all gamers! How many of us have a backlog of games that we sometimes forget about? Maybe you put it back on the shelf, meaning to come back to it “Next weekend” but you forget and something else comes up. Or something similar to that. Here, though, just add the game to the app, and with a single tap, you can see everything on a great “to do” list, so to speak.

App looks great and is very minimal in the best way possible. Love the options of the different themes, and I hope many more are added! Maybe a cool retro monochrome type of theme? 

As it is, this is a great app, and at the time that I’m writing this, it’s $15 to fully unlock it. That may sound steep, but I promise that it’s worthwhile to support a great app and a great creator!

### 3/5 — useful—in theory

*2022-02-21, version 1.9.1*

i like the backlog option and how simple the ui is. however, the free version only lets you track 5 games in your library, and if you’re downloading an app like this…you’re playing more than 5 games.

### 5/5 — To conquer that backlog

*2022-02-11, version 1.9.1*

I was searching for something that would track my game progress beyond trophy hunting. When I come back to a game, I needed something that would refresh my memory on where I left off and what I needed to do. This app is perfect. I can write out a list of To Do’s, love that I can add comments so I can remember what I need to finish a quest/task. There are notes that I can jot down my playthrough about what I accomplished and what I want to work on next. Also a place to review, where I can write down my impressions as I play. The search engine is robust, allowing me to find even those small indie games yet to be released and add to my wishlist. 

Some suggestions:

When finishing an item on the To Do, the completed task move to the bottom of the list. Right now, done and to be done tasks are jumbled together.

I own games that I haven’t even played yet. An option to set the status under Owned or something like that would be awesome, especially for gamers who have huge collections and want to make sure they don’t buy a game twice. 

A social option? I would love see other players chip away at their backlog, watching their progress bar go up or finish games. 

A graph bar or monthly/yearly summary of completing games. I love that you have the option of when you began and finished a game—so many apps don’t have this!—and it would be awesome to see some sort of graph to keep the motivation going. 

In summary, I believe this app is going to help me conquer more games this year. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Best app for managing your game collection

*2021-03-20, version 1.7.1*

This is by far the best app you can find in the AppStore to manage your vide games. It’s clean and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2020-07-30, version 1.1.0*

The UI of the app is simple and easy to use. The ability to add priority to games and mark progress on games are a couple really nice features!

### 5/5 — A Very Functional App with a Minimalistic UI

*2020-07-12, version 1.0.0*

Gets the job done with keeping track of your game catalog. Has a very clean user interface. Some recommendations: add more sorting options (alphabetically, platform, and genre). Add ‘Fighting’ to list of genres. Improve the visibility of the cover images since most appear cropped.
