### 5/5 — Love this Battletech App

*2025-07-05, version 2.2.5*

I use this app all the time. It’s great for looking up mechs, comparing variants and printing sheets. It’s like your own personal warbook. Highly recommended for GMs and players alike.

### 5/5 — Setting the Bar

*2025-04-16, version 2.2.1*

This app is rapidly setting the bar for what Catalyst should have available to we the players (aside from physical books!) There are behaviors within the app that perhaps I don’t understand or are glitchy but the stream of updates is steady. Today I noticed the force packs list, which I’m assuming is new because I’ve been slowly organizing my mechs in that fashion using “organizations”. This is always my go to for preparing for a game. No doubt this App will inevitably meet all our needs, though I’ll surely keep my painful spreadsheet as well! Thank you for your work keep it up!

### 4/5 — Still some bugs

*2024-12-22, version 2.1.21*

Love the app, but there still some bugs. When making formations, it doesn’t always recognize that you’ve met the criteria. For example; I created a heavy striker lance and it was saying that I did not have at lest 2 Mechs with the Striker/Skirmisher role and none had a long range damage of >=1.  All my Mechs did long range damage and there were Striker/Skirmisher units in the lance.

### 4/5 — Fantastic app, room for improvement

*2024-12-07, version 2.1.21*

As a frequent battletech player, this app is incredible for easily creating custom mechs for my games. The app is clearly still in development (e.g. typos, bugs, app occasionally crashing, no support for aerospace units, etc.) but for what it is I am thoroughly impressed. Hoping that the app continues to be worked on and made even better than it already is!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2024-10-13, version 2.1.21*

The program is great. Does what you expect and does it well. I love the ability to full custom build mechs. We play in conjunction with the TTRPG so being able to personalize is the most important feature. 

Had a slight problem displaying the mech sheets and I reached out to the developer. I sent the help request at around 1 PM on a Saturday and it was fixed within a hour. Best customer support I have seen in over ten years.

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2024-09-17, version 2.1.20*

This is great! I use it to keep track of my collection, it lets me separate my forces and build lances and pilots. Unlike the other post says, you can totally change up the pilots skills and it calculates the adjusted BV. Produces PDFs to print out for your games. It’s great.

### 4/5 — Great app, hopefully more will be developed

*2024-09-10, version 2.1.20*

Enjoy using this so far for me has and vehicles. But there is no conventional or aerotech fighters yet. Hope they will be included one day

Hoping you put aircraft in one day soon.

### 5/5 — Great Battletech App

*2024-08-16, version 2.1.19*

This is a great app. Amazing developer response

### 4/5 — Great app, hopefully more will be developed

*2024-08-14*

Enjoy using this so far for me has and vehicles. But there is no conventional or aerotech fighters yet. Hope they will be included one day

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! Aerospace and conventional fighter construction is in the works.

### 4/5 — So very helpful!

*2024-07-28, version 2.1.19*

This app is so very helpful, you have no idea... I'm very thankful for this app. 
The interface might be a little bit complicated, but hey... At least we got a Mech list builder here. Thank you!
