Nouver isn’t on boss timer and kzarka didn’t spawn for one of the listed spawns ### 5/5 — Works great on Xbox *2019-07-06* Has very up to date info. Been using it for the. Box Version and it helps A LOT!! ### 4/5 — Boss Times Update *2019-06-23, version 5.6.7* Boss Times For NA Xbox Need An Update As Now Nouver Has Been Added. Great App BTW Up Until Last Week Missed So Many Bosses, Only Because I’m 10hrs Ahead Of PDT Time Zone. Relied On This App Everyday. ### 5/5 — Awesome App *2019-06-14* Great app. The Boss timers are very nice. A setting to change the time zones would be mice also. I use this app ALOT. VERY VERY HELPFUL. Great Job peeps. Keep it up. ### 5/5 — Very useful *2019-06-14* Every time I want to cook and I have X amount of materials of one thing. I use the app to calculate how much I need of the rest to make for example 100 of something. It’s very useful for creating things ### 5/5 — Essential and worth it *2019-05-24* I wasn’t really going to think much of it. Cool look a free app for BDO, probably just has paywalls all over the place. But man was I wrong. Legit been telling my guild to get it and all 100 of us have been using it for the boss timers and for almost every feature on here. I’m loving it and so are others so please dev/devs don’t let it die. You got a amazing thing going here!! Love the app!!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Way outdated and Boss Notifications don’t work. *2023-09-26* The boss timer is really what I wanted this for, but it has never, not even once notified me for any boss. I have all options for bosses on as well as allowed the app to send notifications. Don’t waste your time on this app. Aside from that, much of the info is outdated, especially the horse calculator. Waste of time. Wish there was another option with all the features… but obviously one that actually worked. ### 1/5 — Needs Revision *2021-01-24* It’s not up to date ### 1/5 — Timers are always wrong dont bother *2019-11-13, version 6.0.0* I have emailed the developer 3 times about the tomes been wrong, he dosnt seem to care enough to fix it. Dont waste your money here. ### 1/5 — Not updated for Xbox *2019-05-28, version 5.6.5* I sent the developer an email awhile back because it’s not showing both world bosses. It’s been maybe two months or more and it’s still not updated. Best to just use Discord boss timer. ### 1/5 — Boss timer out of synch with game *2019-03-12, version 5.5.5* I live in Texas and the central time for it is way off. I’ve been using a timer on a website that is accurate. In order to make it accurate for me I had to set it to eastern time zone. This app needs to be updated. ### 2/5 — Good, but .... *2020-03-08, version 6.0.2* Not updated enough 😐 ### 2/5 — Some item for alchemy updated etc *2020-03-08, version 6.0.2* It good and handy but there is no consistent update for crafting items like alchemy etc ### 2/5 — Nice app, but too many freezes. *2019-04-23* I like the app and even plan to purchase the Pro but I’m getting constant freezes and crashes. Not sure what is going on but I’m forced to close and restart. I’m using an iPhone 8 Plus. Hopefully the developer can address these issues. It’s mostly when selecting the calculators from the left side of menu. ### 3/5 — Decent *2023-11-15* It has a lot of information. But it is outdated. Missing a lot of recent cooking, alchemy, and processing recipes. It will be perfect if it were updated. ### 3/5 — Update Please *2023-05-06* Needs to be updated ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5/5 Personal Project *2024-01-16* Black Desert didn’t make an app to help players, yet these people did. This is why I am rating it so high. It’s very helpful and it shows how great of a community we have for the game ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2023-07-26, version 8.0.3* Used this app for a very long time, absolutely amazing companion app. ### 5/5 — Very convenient *2021-11-22* I’ve been using this for the better part of a year. I have a boss alarm set on my phone for all the spawn times and this app sends me a notification and identifies each boss at a glance. I don’t even have to mess with my pc browser and im ready to log into the appropriate boss alt. ### 5/5 — 🌟 *2021-08-15* Thank you for making this awesome app. perfect application for all BDO players ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-11-01* It’s a great app, very informative, and useful. I have only had it for the span for 2 minutes and it’s already 100% times better than BDO+. I would definitely recommend this to anyone especially if you are one who grinds bosses, or if you need information when it comes to crafting certain materials. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2020-09-29* Extremely useful, works for both console and PC. This app is a MUST HAVE if you play BDO. Recipes, fail stacks, horse breeding and so much more. App works perfectly on my iPhone 11. ### 5/5 — Essential! *2020-04-14* This app has everything I need for bdo. All the mats for recipes, boss timers/ingame timers being the most useful for me. ### 5/5 — L *2019-12-16* Timers look great once you change them to your time zone and processing guide is a big help saves Google time for sure ### 5/5 — Nice *2019-11-11, version 6.0.0* Real good app ### 5/5 — Exactly what you need to play black desert with *2019-08-28, version 5.6.8* It has almost everything, except gear, and item drops, and it’s free. It’s simple, and easy to use. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
