### 5/5 — Worth It

*2025-07-06*

This app has got basically everything you’d reasonably need. No ads, fast loading times, and simple, easy to learn UI. The $2 for this means no ads and encourages these guys to do more.

### 2/5 — Don’t waste your money

*2023-08-03*

At first I thought this app sounded great, but then I paid the 2.99 and other than some good cooking recipes it offers far less than other apps. I have the Breath Companion app and that is my fave so far as the map is not only detailed, but if you want more details about a weapon let’s say, you go to it and it will tell you the base ATK stat and base durability and also give you the amounts those #’s increase if it’s a blue color or yellow color. The  main reason I was looking for a back-up app is that Breath Comp doesn’t show on the map where every single thing is. Most can be found on map, but for ex I was looking for stealthfin trout and it says where to find them in general but you can’t see exact location on map. On your app you can’t look anything up from compendium. You don’t say where many of the things are even located in general. Aside from basic enemies/towers/shrines/koroks for ex, you don’t give the ability to find anything else. What is the point of the compendium if you can’t find it on the map? Highly disappointed and would love my money back

### 5/5 — Pay Once

*2023-06-12*

So refreshing to have an app with no monthly subscription price. Thank god. 🙏

### 3/5 — Okay

*2023-05-29*

It’s okay. For $2 it’s not bad. But it’s also not anything special. The shrine guide would be nice if it could at least pop a WebView or something to the Zelda Dungeons wiki, if not include a direct walkthrough. But as it is I have to close the app and search when I get stuck. 

I think it would also be stellar if I could put in the ingredients I have and the app make recommendations about what to cook, instead of just putting stuff together. The recipe pot is okay in this app, but not great. 

I feel like the paid functionality in this app Is achievable with free functionality in other apps. But it’s at least in a single app here, so that’s something?

### 5/5 — Great App! Looking forward to TOTK Version

*2023-05-19*

I love the BOTW app and I really hope that you are working on a TOTK version!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2023-05-16*

Best one out there I’ve bought so many.... this is the best!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2021-04-07, version 1.0.5*

Best one out there I’ve bought so many.... this is the best!

### 5/5 — Very good guide.

*2020-10-16*

Great guide app. Could you add the feature to the map set your current location that way when I come back to play I know where on the map I am located. 👍👍

### 3/5 — Well...

*2020-03-26*

I can see how some people like it, but it’s just a tracker, it gives you no real information, besides the locations of shrines and towers... could I get a refund...? I won’t use the app if I’m just putting in what I’ve completed down.

### 5/5 — Get this!

*2020-02-22*

I can’t believe there’s only one review for this app. It bought the more popular app guide for BOTW and it was really nice but it lacked some things - this seems to have all the bells and whistles I want - best being the cooking simulator. Thanks so much for this app! I hope it gains popularity! Please do one for BOTW 2 when that comes out.
