### 4/5 — Touchscreen and Gyro need improvement

*2026-01-26*

Best way to play Doom on iOS but it does have an issue with the touchscreen and gyro aim, you can't make micro adjustments in your aim like there's a deadzone and changing both the sensitivity in the settings and gzdoom settings messes with it. If you max out the settings sensitivity and use it as a base for the gzdoom sensitivity it makes the deadzone smaller but it's still present and feels bad to the point I can only play with freelook turned off. Im sure most people play with a controller so it's not huge issue but for people that come from other mobile games like COD Mobile or Delta Force Mobile and know how to play well with the touchscreen and gyro it doesn't feel great. Hopefully the Devs see this and can improve the touchscreen and gyro controls.

### 5/5 — Doom

*2025-06-10*

IT'S DOOM

### 5/5 — It’s good

*2025-04-09*

It’s good but some mods crashes upon loading

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2025-02-26*

A friend told me about this app and I thought I’d give it a go. So glad I did. Watched a YouTube video on what to download and it’s so easy. Now I’m addicted finding new wad’s to then try with this app. Plays very well and some of the wads are like totally new games. Best £1.99 I’ve spent. Thanks Mr Dev !!

Please can we have a Quake II one next !!

### 5/5 — Perfection

*2025-01-30*

Perfect, down to the minute details, it does everything it says it does and executes it perfectly, very rarely do i glaze a port like GenZD let alone write a review so this app is definitely worth a try, even better if the £2 price tag for the full version deterred you, this version will convince you

### 5/5 — Great GZ Doom port

*2024-12-26*

Fantastic port! Much better than the official one: wad support, better controls and many other great features.

### 5/5 — Bought on a whim to try out infinite

*2024-11-23*

Raised my review score again.

It was me being dumb.

This app is absolutely amazing.

### 4/5 — Controls

*2024-11-22*

Game is good but controls are buggy sometimes it double or triples clicks for no reason and also it un binds controls that i bind

### 5/5 — So good I bought it twice

*2024-10-08*

In absence of a tip jar I wanted to show my support for such an amazing product. Also, it is nice to have redundancy with my favorite apps since Apple seems to have issues with their approval process these days. 

Keep up the good work and a big thank you for your patience working with Apple.

### 1/5 — Not Working on iPadOS 26.1

*2025-12-10, version 2025.10.0*

I recently updated to iPadOS 26.1, and none of my launch configurations work anymore! It just closes the app every time I try to open one. If it matters, I have MyHouse.pk3,  the Golden Souls remaster, and nothing else. Neither of them work. Please fix!

### 1/5 — Complete waste of time

*2025-09-30*

If you're using an external mouse and keyboard this is absolutely useless. The app has a million bugs that are impossible to fix, they keep coming whenever you solve one.
At first it was a weird issue with auto-aim switching my weapons when i aimed at a monster, then it turned into the menu literally flashing the options even though I was not holding any keys, then it started switching my gun whenever I picked up ammo for another one, then there was the screen glitching, so many errors, and so much more. 

I downloaded this because I'm disabled and I struggle using my PC since it's far away and I obviously can't watch it in bed or without discomfort, so my iPad has gotten me through my disability since it's the right size for me to choose the angle. I've loved Doom since I was little because I played it with my best friend who passed away a long time ago. I was really looking forward to being able to play it but turns out it would be even more stressful for me to try and solve every weird unheard of bug instead of remembering my childhood and relaxing.

I hope there's better support for keyboards and mice in the future, I'm pretty bummed out. I even bought a new mouse for this app since I assumed the issue was with me using my magic mouse that kind of clicked funny and moved too slow, turns out the problem was the app itself.

After deleting this app from my device, my WAD files were locked into only opening with the app. The files show the apps logo and I cannot open them with any other port or emulator no matter what fixes I try, my files are completely useless if I want to use them fo any other app that isn't this one, but I can't even play on this one because my weapon changes every time I shoot, then when I pick up ammo, then when looking at a monster, etc.

Do not download this app because it will take over your wads and if you store your originals on your ipad then you're pretty much screwed. I had a security backup on another device so I could retrieve my wads but others don't have backups and could permanently have their wads attached to an app that doesn't offer good support for mice and keyboards and has a million different issues when trying to use them. I really hope that this will be fixed one day, guess I'll go back to watching Doom videos rather than playing since I haven't found any reliable way to play.

### 1/5 — Crashes too much

*2025-05-19*

Doesnt load any wads and the supposedly zdoom pk game file doesnt work. I tried every variation of Chex Quest wads as i wanted to play on my phone

### 1/5 — Sound missing

*2024-11-02*

Seems to fun find but no sound and when I reset the audio it crashes the app. Issue with sound needs to be addressed before I purchase

### 2/5 — Audio stopped working

*2026-02-15*

Works great for a while then I bought the full version and the audio died.

### 3/5 — Needs more optimization

*2025-10-05*

Gyroscope aiming, backbone cannot be detected in controller support everything else is fine

### 3/5 — Fun

*2025-08-18*

Yes it fun. I hope don’t have to repay for it again. Asking to restore  purchaseGenzdl. When put the password in it freezes up. Like pay for the app one time like said. I hope don’t repay again :(

### 3/5 — 게임모드별 설정?

*2025-02-10*

모드별로 설정안되나요?

### 3/5 — Good butttttt

*2024-11-05*

This is good but can you make the camera not mover when you move your iPad or phone around? Touch is just better and add colors to the controls and make the dpad have a bigger option size

### 4/5 — Its good but i have one issue

*2026-02-25*

Make a option to disable dragging for all buttons because when im trying to select options and stuff the A button can press multiple times from one push and makes things tedious

### 5/5 — Goes hard

*2026-08-02*

Its good, just hope we will get a UZdoom port soon. At this moment though ProMotion is not available on the iOS version, iPadOS only (so youre stuck with 60fps for now)

### 5/5 — Its good

*2026-06-12*

### 5/5 — Best thing since sliced bread

*2025-12-30*

Well its the best thing since sliced bread. Get it. WAD up.

### 5/5 — Multiplayer

*2025-12-14*

This app is phenomenal besides the multiplayer config file has been broken for some time and was wondering if it’ll ever be fixed again other than that great app

### 5/5 — Excellent port

*2025-11-12*

I really appreciate the controller support and mod compatibility. It has run every mod I threw at it. Just wondering if I can run raze through this?

### 5/5 — Very good

*2025-08-20*

For the free version you guys were very light only three launch configs isn’t that bad tbh you can just remove one if your not that crazy about save data honestly I’m surprised there wasn’t any ads in it

### 5/5 — better than the official port

*2025-08-15*

unlike the official mobile app, this can play legacy of rust
id give it 6 stars if i could

### 5/5 — Greatest port/engine thing ever, even loads pk3 files which is insane

*2025-06-28*

This app is so good, you don’t need premium whatsoever, but I HIGHLY recommend getting it if you can afford it, this is an amazing app, and nothing else like it for IOS

### 5/5 — In project brutality it’s not spawning demons !

*2025-06-11*

I  am so mad rn that no demons are spawning and I bought full version in the lite version and now when I play project brutality now demons fix this please
