### 3/5 — Auto rotate needed

*2026-07-31, version 4.1.4*

This is a great app, however when playing 501 the first round always lags by several minutes, which is super frustrating. Only ever the first 2 players of the round and then it seems to come right. Can this please be updated!

### 1/5 — Need help developer!!!

*2026-02-12, version 4.1.4*

I can’t start a practice game. I can’t delete the second player, basically the app is unusable because there are no real directions. I checked on YouTube and found a review, but the directions shown on starting a practice game were wrong.

If the apps is designed for a minimum of 2 players, I would like a refund.

Thanks in advance for your help.

### 5/5 — Perfekt

*2025-12-28, version 4.1.4*

Steel Dart spielen ohne das Rumgerechne. Und Cricket in der Gruppe auf dem ipad. Tolle App.

### 3/5 — Additional player board problems

*2025-01-25, version 4.1.4*

The dart board for all players other than player1 loads with two 1’s and no number 16 and  just yellow and black in colour.

### 1/5 — Can’t figure out how to use it

*2024-08-01, version 4.1.4*

Can’t figure out how to use the app. You start a game and then can’t input any scores by clicking anywhere on the screen. Yes I could edit scores if I could figure out how to input them. If I’m playing cricket, tapping on the dartboard doesn’t enter a throw and tapping on a number on the scoreboard also does not enter a throw.  Weird.

### 1/5 — No cloud saves

*2024-07-06, version 4.1.4*

Had to get a new phone and lost all of our games

### 5/5 — Best dart app out there

*2023-10-01, version 4.1.4*

Love the app

### 3/5 — Could be better

*2023-08-05, version 4.1.4*

Why not let us add names in it
