### 1/5 — Totally and function

*2026-06-10, version 1.14.0*

Could not open it on my phone at all as soon as I click on the app it acts like it’s going to open and then kicks me back to the home screen. Literally useless would not work.

### 5/5 — Love this app!!

*2026-05-18*

Maaaan have a wished for so many video games that I could scroll through its map sometimes just on downtime just to explore it but not only can I do that I get EVERYTHING marked for me! Just awesome man just fantastic:)

### 3/5 — Decent app, pro mode is straight up greed.

*2026-05-15, version 1.14.0*

It’s decent.  Then the boy who made it decided he wanted to charge 20 bucks for a year?   People these days.  Amazingly bad people.

### 4/5 — Great for map

*2026-03-22*

Good app, but I hate how there’s a pop up ad that full screens itself and I have to click off every time. Don’t care about an ad on the side, but don’t make it full screen itself while I’m trying to use the app…

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-02-14, version 1.14.0*

Actually helped me keep track of what i have missed, thanks for making a actual good app

### 2/5 — Subscription

*2026-02-13, version 1.14.0*

Why do I need to pay $30.00 for an Elden Ring guide! The first good walkthrough I find and it costs money.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-01-26, version 1.14.0*

I’ve installed this app 3 times everytime i open it it crashes out and quits itself

### 1/5 — Really? A subscription?

*2025-06-05, version 1.14.0*

You should be put in prison for that.

### 3/5 — App issues

*2025-05-20, version 1.14.0*

It keeps closing out on me for some reason can y’all fix it so I can use it I’d appreciate it thanks

### 3/5 — It’s fine but adds

*2025-05-06, version 1.14.0*
