### 5/5 — A Great App

*2026-09-01*

Well with this recent update, my recent achievements are showing up now, and I’m a man of my word. 5 stars!

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for reaching out on GitHub and joining the TestFlight! Glad we were able to get to the bottom of your issue and get it resolved. Looking forward to seeing your review at 5 Stars soon!

### 5/5 — A great interface into retroachievements!

*2026-08-27*

This is my preferred way to view retroachievements!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, your ask has been implemented (achievement details and comments)! Take a look and I look forward to your review being at five stars soon!

Update: Thanks for the updated review, let me know if you want to see anything else!

### 1/5 — It doesn’t not want to register

*2026-08-08*

I just signed in but it said not compatible to the records and it just stops working

**Developer response:** Just released a new version that should be significantly more resilient. Give that a shot and let me know how it works for you. Hope to see your review at 5 Stars soon!

### 3/5 — The apps completely broken

*2026-05-08*

I mean a good app but is it just me or that it crashes whenever you on the main profile still a good app though just maybe use the website

**Developer response:** Just released a new version that should be significantly more resilient. Give that a shot and let me know how it works for you. Hope to see your review at 5 Stars soon!

### 2/5 — Promising

*2026-04-01*

The UI and app itself are both super clean, however there seems to be issues with it consistently updating achievement process alongside RA. Once that is addressed this will be a banger app for iOS RA users

**Developer response:** Please reach out to me on GitHub to explain what you are seeing and I will get to the bottom of it. From my testing as well as external testers, there are no known issues with the current build. 

If you want to refresh the data in the app, simply pull down on the page and release and it will grab the latest from RA. I hope to see your review at 5 stars soon!

### 4/5 — Nearly Perfect

*2026-01-20*

This is a nearly perfect app, however there is one flaw that can be fixed; The recent achievements section is currently not showing the recent achievements, it’s showing achievements from like October. Otherwise this is a great app!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-03-20*

Upon getting on the app it immediately crashes

**Developer response:** Please reach out to me directly on GitHub so I can get to the root of this. I have not seen this issue before and need to recreate your setup to see what’s going on!

### 4/5 — Solid

*2024-10-06*

This app is everything you need it to be.

But it could be more.

I would recommend adding things like a user search to see other followed users and maybe landscape mode with controller support.

**Developer response:** Landscape Support, User Search, Other User Profiles and Followed Users seem like reasonable asks. I will add these to the backlog. I do not see the need for controller support here so that will be lower on my priority list, but I will keep it in mind. Thanks for the feedback!
