### 5/5 — Suggestion for the app

*2023-08-09*

I love this app it is good. I use it when I am bored or when I am looking at stats. I would like to suggest adding a patch notes page. I know it is in the overwatch menu but I would like to have one where it is simplified. Thanks!

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-07-25*

Is exactly what you expect but more!

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2023-06-30*

The app gives you every last detail on each hero, this app helped me so much to know my characters strengths and weakness and the meta notes really top it off!

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2023-06-23*

It’s so helpful for new overwatch players hopefully you keep adding more stuff and keep keeping it up you got this.

### 5/5 — Perfect application for what it’s used for. iPad app soon?

*2023-06-03, version 1.0.16*

i hope there’s an iPad app soon. this app has been saving my butt for the last few days lol

i love this game and this app makes it even better.

### 5/5 — Look no further!

*2023-04-29*

This is the PERFECT app for overwatch 2. I’ve used it countless times, and has been extremely helpful. I’ve never written a review before, but this app is so good I just had to. Install and enjoy!

### 5/5 — Underrated

*2023-04-26*

This app is Extreamly useful, it teaches you all you need about characters, it really came in handy while playing the game, thank you very much!

### 5/5 — Rating

*2023-02-20*

This all is amazing.

I can see all the statistics I couldn’t find anywhere else. 

As a genji main, it’s amazing to be able to see who counters me, what damage all my abilities do, who I counter and all different sorts of things.  

this app is insane and a complete guide to your favourite characters, would definitely recommend for new players and experienced ones alike !

### 5/5 — Great

*2023-02-15*

I have used this to upgrade my knowledge of overwatch thanks

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2023-02-08*

I’m a dev also, and I have to say, this is a really cool personal project. Some cool ideas maybe to add (either way this app is dope) - 1. add if abilities have an interrupt. I straight up interrupted hammer down and sound barrier with Orisas javelin and blew my mind. I’ve also had someone cancel my mech bomb with it, but I think it has to be like the first half sec of the ult, road hogs ult will cancel it also. 2. General info like eh fact that a payload moves fastest with 3 ppl on it, times it takes for health packs to respawn and other general basic tips. 3. Map info, such as a top down map and where all the health packs are. Just some thoughts. At the end of the day 10 outa 10 would recommend.

### 5/5 — Super Helpful

*2023-02-08*

Recommend this app to everyone who plays Overwatch especially those who play competitively. I'm a Diamond player and find this app to be extremely helpful. It has lots of detailed information about abilities and cooldowns as well as hero compositions showing who certain heroes counter and what heroes have synergies with. It also has lore about each character. My favorite part is the trivia that is fun but also continues to teach me about part of the game I never knew existed. I'm super impressed with this app. To the developers thank you and keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — Top quality

*2023-01-25*

The app delivers all correct information. Very good app. If possible to have all hero information updated within 24 hours of patch would be even cooler

**Developer response:** Thanks! You can usually expect an update to be available within a day or two of the patch.

### 5/5 — Absolutely fantastic app!

*2023-01-21*

I was using the wikis to learn OverWatch’s damage numbers, synergies, etc., but the websites are so slow and they crash constantly. So I looked up this app and downloaded it. It is so awesome! The information is cleanly laid out and organized and easy to find. I’m slowly memorizing all the numbers but I have to check back often and this app helps me to do that easily. This app has all the information about all abilities, like how much damage/healing they do, how long they last, cooldowns, etc. It also has pretty obscure (but helpful) information like what abilities benefit from Bap’s window.

To whoever created this app: Thank you! You are amazing and have created something so useful to OW players. Big Ups!

**Developer response:** Wow, thank you so much! :D

### 5/5 — Exactly what I’ve been looking for!!

*2023-01-19*

This app is wonderful! I’m able to easily keep track of hero information (e.g. synergies, counters, weapon/ability info, lore) without having to frantically scroll through the wiki before a match begins. Although I’ve been playing since OW’s release, this app is still teaching me new things all the time! I highly recommend this to any new players who want to get better at team composition and/or countering. It will really up your game!

Feedback: In addition to the information currently provided, I think it would be really helpful to add a “counters” section in addition to the “countered by” section. For example, in Ana’s section, it notes that Kiriko counters her, but it doesn’t tell me that Ana counters Roadhog. It would be nice to have both pieces of countering info in one place! 

In addition, it might be nice to have a way to filter for specific information. For example, if I only wanted to see counters/synergies, I should be able to toggle on/off the weapon info, lore, etc. This could make split-second team comp adjustments a little easier and potentially faster. Although, to be fair, I don’t see this as necessary at all and would probably only save a few extra milliseconds.

P.S. thank you to the developer for making this app for us! I can tell that a ton of work has gone into it! Plus, it’s a super helpful resource to have on hand :)

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for the kind words and the detailed feedback! I really appreciate it! Your suggestion to add a "countered by" section is something that's definitely been on my mind. If I add that feature, I'd want to display the info differently (three sections could be confusing) and probably structure the data in a new way to ensure consistency. But yeah, this would be high on my priority list for improvements.

### 2/5 — Gave up on some users

*2024-03-10*

This app was good but now they are just abandoning users who cant/wont update to ios16. Even though I’ll likely be updating its disappointing to see

### 3/5 — Great app but why no iOS 15?

*2024-03-02*

This is a great app but you should not remove the availability for iOS 15 users

### 3/5 — Very Yess

*2023-08-09, version 1.0.20*

Indeed

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2024-12-10*

It’s missing a few updates on some heroes otherwise, it’s an excellent tool to better understand Overwatch 2.

### 5/5 — This app is amazing

*2026-04-03*

This app is amazing it has help me improve my gameplay

### 5/5 — Super useful, super interesting!

*2026-02-15*

Indispensable when I first started trying to learn the game- especially the strategy/ability interaction tips! 
Even now with Blizzard having added all the finicky ability numbers and stats into the hero screen, I find myself going back to this app for reference. It’s an awesome tool, well-made, and frequently updates. Hell yeah. I would LOVE to someday see a maps section but that’s a huge ask for something that’s already doing exactly what it needs to (and more! fun quizzes!)
Anyway devs thanks for helping this quickplay warrior throw my friends’ games slightly less. :)

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2025-09-09*

Just want to express my appreciation of you for creating this app.  It’s been an extremely help!

### 5/5 — Peak

*2025-08-27*

### 5/5 — Love this

*2025-04-06*

### 5/5 — Super in-depth!

*2024-04-27*

I’ve never commented on a app before but wow this app is insane. Easy to read and understand. Thank you for making this!!!!!

## Most praised reviews (4 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — This is amazing

*2024-02-24*

I understand how difficult it can be to create an app, and these people nailed it. It is the easiest way to find tons of info and has no adds. Awesome job guys.

### 5/5 — Amazing Character Guide

*2024-01-03*

I definitely love this app.  It’s been a big help for sure, especially when seeing who you’re strong against or weak against and who synergizes well with each other. 

 I did want to give a suggestive ask.  Since this is a companion app already, could we get an update where we can link our Blizzard accounts so we can have a mobile version of seeing our stats, progression, highlights, and challenges, endorsement levels, etc?  And being able to view friends stats as well?  Just a thought.

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2023-12-13*

This is what I was looking for in an overwatch app. It tells me exactly what I need mid match.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2023-12-01*

Great app for what it is. Even as someone who’s played for years now, I use it quite often. Helps with theorycrafting cooldowns and abilities, especially with how often then change in a live service game.
