### 5/5 — Helpful Tool as your “Source of Truth”

*2026-04-15, version 1.4.0*

This is a great tool too keep your actual Source of Truth, because all you have to do is screenshot whenever you update a D/K/G .  I’ve never had a problem with uploading duplicates and things like that, it really just works.  
It does have a slight OCR issue with things like the number 4, but that’s not the app’s fault, however the app’s UX handles the errors perfectly and gives you a very easy way to manually enter just the missing info.  

Tons of powerful insights built straight in the tool, and any missing ones you can easily export into all the common formats for using online tools

If you play MKT on iOS and want to keep track of an accurate “Source of Truth” to be used either in app, or with online tools, this is the app!

### 5/5 — New update is FANTASTIC

*2025-09-21, version 1.4.0*

Sorting drivers, karts, and gliders by number of best ranked cup courses is the feature I’ve been dreaming of. Massively helpful for budgeting my level and point tickets now that I’m tier 90+. Also, the data display updates makes it way easier to use by giving all pertinent info for multiple DKGs available in one view. Thank you!!!

### 5/5 — The best MKT app!

*2025-09-19, version 1.4.0*

Simply brilliant. Easy to import your drivers etc. and gives valuable insights to allow you to choose what to invest your hard earned rubies and tickets in!

### 5/5 — Best iOS app for MKT

*2024-11-06, version 1.3.7*

Best iOS app to track your DKG progress and export into tracker spreadsheets, such as: Ticket Time, Ticket/Coverage Optimizer, MKT Toolbox. Utilize "export" and you can copy paste from iphone to ipad or MacBook. I have all Apple devices and it's seamless with Bluetooth. I can quickly export from MKT Playbook into Ticket Optimizer and generate the prefill for the ubiquitous DKR's ACR score sheet calculator. These are commonly used for ACR runs (All Cup Ranking) at Top 10, Top 100, & Top 1000 (of which I've won 6x). TY to the developer that is responsive to bug reports and still updates the app!

### 5/5 — Secret weapon

*2024-11-05, version 1.3.6*

Helps immensely to plan future upgrades effectively and choose which items to obtain next by analyzing your inventory ..after you take the time to add in all of your item cards and updates.

### 4/5 — No scrolling

*2024-09-18, version 1.3.4*

Latest update breaks scrolling on any individual item

### 5/5 — Great companion app for Mario Kart Tour

*2024-07-30, version 1.3.3*

I’ve thoroughly gotten my money out of this app.  The developer listened to the community and made changes where needed.  Well worth the nominal fee.

### 5/5 — Best app

*2024-07-25*

For MKT this app is essential if you want to progress. Would give it 500 out of 5. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Game changer for MKT addicts

*2024-04-17, version 1.3.3*

Never written an app review before but honestly this is a lifesaver as a MKT addict. Takes a bit of time and effort loading everything in, but super easy and helpful once that’s done. I did get the paid version which I also never do, but the effort that went into creating an app for something this specific in life deserves credit. Thank you!

### 5/5 — 🤩👌🙏👏

*2023-07-16, version 1.3.1*

Great app - very helpful & beautifully designed! v1.3.0 is much faster & the new coverage tool is top! In addition, quick troubleshooting regarding the calculation error (see v1.3.1) - in this context fast reaction as well as nice communication from/with developer Titus. I was happy to tip for that. Thank you very much! Keep it up!
