### 1/5 — 小学生级别的app?

*2025-10-20, version 3.3.0*

卡，做烂了后还弄了个股东计划强行跳转其他app

### 1/5 — Too many auto-pop-out ads

*2025-05-18*

Why

### 1/5 — 相当差劲

*2024-11-03*

反映了n遍“ios系统操作集石，操作一下一转圈，和ios根本不匹配”。但是压根不改善

### 1/5 — 点什么都要转两下刷新

*2024-11-02, version 3.2.14*

网络也不卡呀，为什么总是会转个刷新符号出来，切换一点都不流畅，给人感觉卡的要命，按一下、等一下

### 4/5 — Better Than BGG but...

*2020-03-19*

I absolutely love this app. It’s my go to search tool for new games and whenever my collection grows I’m sure to use Gstone to update my collection. I just wish the app worked in a landscape mode on the iPad. Small complaint I know, but I can’t say how many times I’ve rotated my iPad only to wish this small feature was there.

### 2/5 — Fun App But Too Many Bugs

*2020-03-10*

This app seemed very promising. I logged in and registered pretty easily. The app crashed the first time as I was trying to create my guild/club. The app crashed a 2nd time again later when I was creating an event. I was able to customize my Meeple and nickname. I was able to create my club and first test event.

I asked a couple of people from my game group to login. They were able to register and log in pretty easily. They requested to join the new club but their apps also crashed. 

I liked that you could add some of your favorite games to your profile. I liked that you could add locations, pictures, and information for the club. I like that there was a club chat feature. That’s why I didn’t give this app 1 Star. 

I was hoping there was a feature that allowed participants to vote on which games they wanted to play. There was no such option. Additionally, we were unable to sync our BGG accounts. After the app crashed a 3rd time I was done. I’m very disappointed.

### 1/5 — Not UK friendly

*2020-01-09, version 1.3.10*

Seems like a really good app, but I can’t seem to find anything nearby. I tried looking for games cafes and shops in towns nearby and no luck (even though there are some that I know are around). I even typed in London for location and still it came up with nothing!?! Maybe it just needs more time, but I don’t think I’ll be using it until it’s updated more for UK use.

### 2/5 — Poor implementation

*2020-01-04*

No one else in my area- the app is not very intuitive. I see what they are trying to do but they really need to go back to the drawing board with the design of the app

### 3/5 — Needs some work

*2019-12-05*

I don’t like sending friend requests multiple times to the same people. With more users signing up, I can’t remember who I’ve sent requests to. Would be helpful if there was an “awaiting reply” notice from users you’ve previously reached out to... just a thought. Also, 50 characters for a message is a little on the short side.

### 1/5 — Completely not ready for release

*2019-11-27, version 1.3.6*

Steaming pile of donkey dung.  An app that’s intended to make connections with other gamers but there’s no apparent way to actually accept a connection request.  Two of us spent 1/2 hour trying to figure out how to accept each other’s friend request with no success.  STEER CLEAR!!!!!!

Follow up to developers response:  I had already tried as you suggested before I posted the above review.  I see the red dot in the upper left corner and have “clicked” on it.  It takes me to a page with recommended people to follow, people to send friend requests to (who I have already sent friend requests to and they’ve sent requests to me) but no friend requests for me to accept showing up.  Again, no way to actually close a connection.
