Спасибо за отзыв! Русской локализации пока нет — сейчас приложение доступно на английском, испанском, французском и португальском. Я записал вашу просьбу, и если добавлю русский язык, это будет в описании обновления. — Дэн

Truly love this app

Been a very long time user and the app quality never fails to amaze me; amazing features and I even recall recommending some of them ; it’s great to see developer who listens and incorporates with an open level of creativity

Please read this before even considering this app.

I’ve had to write this so many times before it reset so I had to write it again - so let me just start off that this app has a lot of good things. It has a very good selection of games to choose from, its database is great, and a nice looking app in general. Although its options are a bit too limiting and simple. I thought it was so good that red flag number one, I paid $40 dollars for the Pro license for it. That’s a LOT of money for an app that just logs games that you could find for free online or just use Google Sheets, but I just wanted an app that I could check whenever I wanted.

But then something turned me off from it all. Something made me know right away this app is NOT a viable choice for this, nor is it worth using at all. I got a notification while logging my games that the app was taking up too much storage. I thought this was weird since most game logging apps don’t take up storage at all, it’s all INFO BASED STUFF so it shouldn’t do that. I had already logged 300 games already (mind you the free trial only lets people go up to 500, meaning the creator EXPECTED people to log this much). I went to see what the problem was and saw it was taking up 5 GIGA BYTES OF STORAGE?? WHAT? That’s way too much storage for an app that just LOGS GAMES to take up. There is no excuse for this! I’ve explored a plethora of game logging apps that NEVER go into the GB range because it’s all information - just words and sometimes nice visuals. It shouldn’t TAKE UP SPACE THAT A VIDEO GAME WOULD HAVE - literally this took up more space than most of the actual app games I have on my phone. Any of the Ace Attorney games you can get on the App Store, games with HOURS OF GAMEPLAY, are less than this. That’s an insane mismanagement of data and is a terrible usage of it all together. Game logging apps always use servers to store the data so the app never gets this big for people’s phones, and always has ways to back it all up. This app is STORING IT ALL ON THE PHONE, and also somehow making it as large as 5 GB??? That’s ludicrous and insane. I thought I found the right app for me, but there have been so many red flags and I fell for such a stupidly overpriced pricing in general that I regret ever trying and using this app in the first place.

Also, 300 games taking up 5 GB is overall terrible and just sad in general. That means the 500 GB mark for the free trial would’ve taken up MORE space on peoples phones.

Whoever is reading this please take what I have to say into consideration before even thinking of trying this app. Use one that doesn’t take up this much space, there are so many better replacements out there - even resorting to a spreadsheet could benefit you in the end over trying to spend useless money on an app that doesn’t know how to handle its users data and doesn’t give broader choices for them. I fell hard for what I thought would possibly be my go to game logging app, but I was so wrong and lost actual money I’ll never get back because of it. There’s no excuse for this other than greed and poor handling of an app.

I’ll have to spend so much time transferring my logged games over to another site I can trust now. Make sure to do your research before giving ANY money to an app like this. There’s always a better, even free alternative out there for you all! Especially when it isn’t something like this. This app lost my trust, I paid the price - but I hope some of you read this before giving a cent or download to this app. Thank you.

Fantastic games organiser

With the recent update, this app has everything you need to manage your backlog and look with satisfaction on the games you’ve completed. The developer is regularly updating the app and is responsive to feedback. I recently emailed the developer regarding a feature and it was in the next update 2 weeks later. It’s easy to find and organise games, and the recent Time to Beat feature makes your “up next” gaming decision that bit easier. Recommended and I like it so much I decided to upgrade to Pro to support the developer. There’s a Pro trial too if you want to see if the additional features are worth it to you.

Best Gaming Collection List!

I’ve tried 5 or 6 different apps over the years and this is BY FAR the best one of them all! I love all the customizable options for each game! I use this for shorting all my VR games as nothing else really does that. Plus, the devs love suggestions and actually reply to features I’d love to see!

Amazing App

Very very useful and user friendly. This is the best app I’ve tried. Love it. Congrats to the dev(s)

No Game Gear?

Where is Game Gear? Sega CD? 32X???

Pay walls and not able to add a game between multiple consoles

For a basic free app, it’s not bad, but there’s so many features you need a paywall for. A gripe of mine is that I can’t add games if I have the same game on different consoles. If that is a feature, I don’t even know where to go to figure that out.

Great UI

This app is great because of its simplicity. I think it’s missing a few things, like a page including most popular games and a page with genres of games to more easily discover games.

Maj 06/08…tout perdu

J’ai perdu ma collection avec une des dernières maj…🙁

Response from developer

Bonjour, et sincèrement désolé — perdre votre collection est exactement ce qui ne devrait jamais arriver, et je comprends votre frustration. Nous avons identifié la cause dans la 4.5.0 et un correctif est déjà en préparation pour la prochaine mise à jour. Il reste peut-être un moyen de récupérer vos données, mais c'est urgent : si vous avez un autre appareil (iPad, Mac, ancien iPhone) où l'app affiche encore vos jeux, activez le mode Avion dessus **dès maintenant**, avant qu'il ne se synchronise, et n'y ouvrez pas l'app. Une sauvegarde iCloud ou Finder/iTunes faite avant la mise à jour permet aussi de tout restaurer. Écrivez-nous à support@hotavocadoapps.com — nous vous aiderons personnellement, étape par étape, à tenter de récupérer votre collection. Encore toutes nos excuses, et merci de nous avoir signalé le problème. — L'équipe MyGames Database

Free version is GREAT

You can have up to 500 games logged and tracked on this app. That’s wayyyy more than other similar tracking apps provide for free. I been testing over 7 game tracking apps and I believe this is the one. Clean ui and very simple interface. You can see it sorted from a-z or from ratings you give it from 1-10. It’s a lot better than the other ones because those can only let you track like 6-25 games for free which is nothing. This isn’t as limiting since 500 games is a lot for the average person to track and need. Thanks devs keep it like this.

Wonderful App!

Plenty of great features in this app! But not the main reason for this review, the main one is the fact that the dev(s) of this app are wonderful. They take feedback and implement it if it makes sense! Very cool, would recommend this app to anyone who has a large library of games or is looking to start collecting!

Génial

C’est l’application parfaite. Il faudrait pouvoir importer depuis GOG et Epic Games comme Gamery. Ca serait la meilleure application de ce type sur IPhone.

Brilliant app

Only thing that would make me subscribe is if there was a login and social side. Still 5 star.

Pls read

How to play game becuase i click blue play button and cant play

Amazing but

It’s really good and all my games are on there like sbmi mc earth pjsk etc but there’s no recommendation for games which would be cool so I can find games I can get or put in wishlist

Great games library app!

This is a great games library database and has a generous 500-game library limit for free. While there are other apps that are similar and have more import tools for different platforms, those apps often try to do too much and I’ve found that functions break when you attempt to manage games that you own on multiple platforms. Whereas this app has no import tools (Steam library import is included in the Pro version) but allows for easy manual adding which works great once set up, it has manual platform/storefront settings, custom reviews/notes sections, is simple and looks great, and generally does exactly what I need. The only thing it could add is the addition of customisable colour pallets and/or UI themes for the main library page, though again, I do like its simplicity.

Love the update

I ended up getting the lifetime membership based on the fact I open this app more than 50 times a day give or take. I’m obsessed with the category collections and have been graciously appreciative of this feature. I love the use of IGDB since I can continue to update artworks that are off ratio to keep this a visually, yet beneficial beautiful app

Love it. Very clean,

I understand the limit for this app. Only being 500. Maybe I might not ever reached that number, but truly love this app and I envy the developer’s education. I also discovered that they do use IDGB for a lot of the cover art, so I’ve been able to contribute high quality cover art for the app and it’s been a blessing . Thank you Daniel for your hard work
