Does not work

Me

Response from developer

Sorry about that. I rebuilt the whole app and 2.0 is out now, so it actually works. Would love it if you gave it another shot and updated your review. - Aryaman

Doesn’t work

Cool idea. Was looking forward to using it for a meeting. Glad we tested it before the meeting because it didn’t work.

Response from developer

Glad you tested it before the meeting, and sorry it let you down. 2.0 is out now, rebuilt from scratch, and joining, buzzing and scoring all work. If you've got another meeting coming up, I'd love for you to try it again and update your review. - Aryaman

Funktioniert nicht

Spieler werden nicht in der Lobby angezeigt und spiel kann dadurch nicht gestartet werden

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, and sorry about that. Players not showing up in the lobby is fixed in 2.0, which I rebuilt from scratch. The host now sees everyone the moment they join, so you can start right away. If you try it again, I'd love an updated review. - Aryaman

Used to work - not anymore

I used this in training classes for over a year. Never had any major issues. Now all of the sudden it does t work. When you host you can’t see any of the participants that joined. Very disappointed.

Response from developer

This one stings. Thanks for using it in your trainings for so long, and sorry it broke on you. 2.0 is out and it's a full rebuild: the host sees everyone who joins, who's connected, and who's reconnecting. It also handles up to 100 people now. Would love to have you back, and an updated review would mean a lot. - Aryaman

What the heck?!

THIS DOES NOT WORK AT ALL WORST THING YOU CAN DOWNLOAD ON HERE, did nobody test this? Do not recommend

Response from developer

Fair, and I'm sorry. It really didn't work. I just shipped 2.0, rebuilt from the ground up so joining and buzzing actually work. If you're up for another go, an updated review would help a lot. - Aryaman

Does not work 2023 FEB 26

Does not work at the current date. I had a few join and when they buzzed in, nothing happened. Deleted

Response from developer

Thanks for the details. Players joining but their buzzes never showing up was exactly what broke. 2.0 is a full rewrite and fixes it: every buzz is recorded and ordered by when the player actually pressed. If you try it again, I'd love an updated review. - Aryaman

The lobby doesn't work

The participants type the host code in, but they don't join the host's game. You can type any code any it'll bring you to an imaginary lobby.

Response from developer

Thanks for spelling out exactly what happened, that helped. The fake lobby is fixed in 2.0: a wrong code no longer drops you into an empty room, and you only see the game once the host's room actually confirms you. If you try it again, an updated review would mean a lot. - Aryaman

Does not work

They only give me the option to give one start but I would absolutely not give it any stars, don’t waste your time!

Response from developer

I hear you, and I'm sorry it wasted your time. I rebuilt the whole app and 2.0 is out now. Joining and buzzing actually work. If you're willing to give it one more chance, I'd be grateful for an updated review. - Aryaman

Server seams offline

It looks like the app server is offline. without server connection it seams it doesnt work. sad sad

Response from developer

Good guess, it was the server. The old backend went down and took the app with it. 2.0 runs on a completely new setup and is live now. Players don't even need to be on the same Wi-Fi anymore. If you try it again, I'd really appreciate an updated review. - Aryaman

Does not work

You cannot even open a game lobby or start a round. Don’t download.

Response from developer

Totally fair. The lobby was broken in the old version. I rebuilt everything for 2.0: the host gets a 4-letter code (or a QR code), players join in seconds, and you can start right away. If you give it another try, I'd love an updated review. - Aryaman

Couldn’t even start round

Glitchy and couldn’t even start the first round

Response from developer

Sorry you couldn't even get a round started. That one's on me. 2.0 is a ground-up rewrite and starting a round is a single tap now. If you try it again, an updated review would help a ton. - Aryaman

Wasn’t working

This app doesn’t work

Response from developer

Sorry about that. The old version had stopped working for a lot of people. I rebuilt the whole app for 2.0 and it's live now: players can join, buzzes show up, and it stays connected. Would really appreciate it if you gave it another shot and updated your review. - Aryaman

Does not work on iPad

App used to function on ipad. Then suddenly did not function at all. Even though the app specifically states it’s designed for ipad.

Response from developer

You're right, and I'm sorry. iPad broke and I let it sit way too long. 2.0 is out now and it's a full rebuild, including a proper host layout made for the iPad screen. If you still have a use for it, I'd love for you to try it again and update your review if it works for you. - Aryaman

Great Fun

Hi

HA GAAAAAAYYY

Sorry

Badddd

Response from developer

Fair enough, the old version was in rough shape. I just shipped 2.0, a full rewrite: joining actually works now and buzzes register reliably. If you're up for trying it again, I'd really appreciate an updated review. - Aryaman

Missing features and cuts out

It does not show a leaderboard after each round which makes it hard to keep track of scores. And when playing it, it cut out for players making them unable to buzz in.

Response from developer

Thanks for this, and sorry it took me so long. Both of these are fixed in 2.0, which I rebuilt from scratch: there's a scoreboard between every round now, and phones reconnect on their own if they drop, so nobody gets locked out of buzzing. If you give it another go, I'd love to hear what you think, and an updated review would mean a lot. - Aryaman
