### 1/5 — Nur Geldmacheri

*2026-08-14*

Inzwischen läuft die App ohne Geld gar nicht mehr. Hatte sie vor Jahren genutzt, dabei auch das Abo genutzt, um den Entwickler zu unterstützen. Inzwischen kostet allein das reine hinzufügen bereits das Abo…kein Support mehr meinerseits

**Developer response:** If you have purchased the app before it became subscription app, you have of course been grandfathered into a FREE life-time app unlock. You do not need to pay for the subscription.
If this did not happen for you automatically, please contact us through help.clz.com and we'll help you unlock the app ASAP, free of charge.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2026-07-30, version 11.0.4*

This is by far my favorite app. It is great to have my collection on my iphone and the search is great for finding games in a hurry.  This app works great on my iPad, iPhone, and Mac.  By far the best app for keeping track of games.

### 5/5 — Great App For Managing Your Collection

*2026-07-24*

I’ve been an avid user for 3 years now and am very happy with the app, which is regularly updated, and data is fed into it via its community, including me.  I tried to use many other apps in the past and ultimately abandoned them.  This app is by far the easiest to use out of all the apps I’ve tried thus far.  The interface is simple to understand and very comprehensive offering reports by genre, year, platform and so on.

### 5/5 — Essential app for serious game collectors

*2026-07-22, version 11.0.4*

I’ve been using CLZ Games for a couple of years and it just gets better and better. It’s an essential app for any games collector and it’s super easy to use. Games can be added by title, by scanning the bar code on the box or even manually.

The developers regularly add in other features and are quick to respond to any queries or issues.

The latest update has added the ability to add your own custom data fields which makes the app even more flexible than before. I’ve now added data fields that help manage my (very) retro cassette collection.

### 5/5 — Best video game organizer

*2026-07-17, version 11.0.2*

I love this app, if you need to have a list of video game prices and organizations, don’t think twice!

### 5/5 — Good can be better

*2026-07-13, version 10.4.3*

Some games like doom you have crazy prices for edition that are not a standard edition  so barcodes not right.  Also games that aren’t in the system so many

### 1/5 — Mandatory Subscription

*2026-07-13*

I was interested in trying CLZ Games, but the mandatory subscription requirement before I could properly test the app was an immediate dealbreaker.

I understand developers need to make money, but users should at least get a chance to explore the app’s core features before being asked to commit to a subscription. Requiring a subscription upfront makes it hard to judge whether the app is worth paying for.

I uninstalled it and moved on to another option. A proper free trial or limited free version would have made a much better first impression.

**Developer response:** The app offers a free 7 day trial that lets you try all features before committing to the subscription.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2026-07-01, version 10.4.3*

I have been using this app now for a year. I am disorganized as a person, however my game collection is very neat

### 5/5 — Oraganize

*2026-06-30, version 10.4.3*

The best app to organize for games if you have a huge collection

### 3/5 — Pretty sweet just buggy

*2026-06-29, version 10.4.3*

Half the time trying to scan barcodes I have to add them to my collection to start scanning again
