So much so I decided to spend the dollar to remove ads and add some features. I did this while at my family’s home where I have wifi and great signal. Come hone from that and suddenly I have to purchase the premium version again. I can’t get the button I assume is for restore purchases to work. Very disappointing. Unless it’s fixed I don’t plan on using it much longer. It was very useful, as I just started shiny hunting. Could’ve used a bit more explanation on some of the features though for premium. ### 4/5 — Pokémon Épée Bouclier *2019-12-15, version 2.2.1* Super appli ça aide pas mal et ça motive mais il faudrait juste ajouter un mode pour les nouveaux jeux ### 4/5 — Recent problems, but overall fantastic! *2019-12-12* While working on a longer SOS chain on USUM, as soon as the chain reaches 255, stats (HA%, IVs, and shiny odds) appear to reset on the app ### 4/5 — Sword and shield *2019-11-26, version 2.2.1* Amazing app but when will you add sword and shield? ### 3/5 — Great help,but this is getting ridiculous *2019-06-04, version 2.2.1* This app is great help when it comes to keeping track of chains.I purchased the pro version so I could do more with other games,and include the shiny charm.HOWEVER,if I get out of the app for some time (as I take breaks between chains),it deletes my previous chains,and claims that I did not purchase the pro version.I’m not buying it again and this is getting to be VERY ridiculous.NOT HAPPY. ### 3/5 — Even after buying pro version i still get the pop up *2019-05-14* I just want to change some options for my chain but every time I try I get the pop up to buy the pro version even when I already have. ### 3/5 — Great App *2019-04-01* I really like this app, I use it when I’m soft resetting. The only thing I don’t like that should be fix, are the odds for let’s Go, they aren’t the right odds, but besides that it’s a really good app. ### 3/5 — My go to for shiny chaining but one error *2019-03-31* I purchased the full version quite a while ago and had about 15 chains saved until I just added a new one and found that they were all gone. I doubt I’m getting them back, but if it’s the result of a glitch I highly suggest just writing them down elsewhere. Really disappointing to lose the record of all my progress. Also, it’d be very helpful to put the reset button in a less accessible place just to prevent accidentally resetting, as well as some way to add to the counter using an automatic timer or voice. It gets tedious having to juggle things around or remember to tap every time. ### 3/5 — It’s ok I guess *2019-02-25* I play a LOT of Let’s Go and know the odds pretty well, but it’s nice to have some visual progress. The odds as my catch combos go up are wrong. With the shiny charm, and a 31 catch combo, they should be roughly 1/293. The app shows 1/171. Not to mention that the app also doesn’t account for the lure, which lowers the count to 1/274, the lowest it actually goes. Also, the app shows 5 guaranteed IV’s, and the real number is 4. I like the app and would like to use it more, but they need to fix these things. So far, this is the most promising one. ### 4/5 — Good app but can reset randomly. *2019-02-14* I shiny hunt a lot and love to track my encounters so this app is perfect for it! It’s easy to use and I like that you can set it to your game, method, and whether or not you have the shiny charm. I would give it 5 stars but I have had it three time now now, for some reason, reset as if I just downloaded it and lose my previous hunt data and the encounters for my current hunt. So if you really want to remember the number you were successful at I suggest writing it down as I lost a few numbers for some longer hunts. Overall great app for what it is! ### 3/5 — Great app. Couple bugs. *2019-02-10* I love using this app while shiny hunting. The only thing about this app that holds it back is when you save your encounter chain and the app randomly refreshes and deletes EVERYTHING. Please fix this. ### 3/5 — Good app however... *2019-01-12, version 2.2.1* Is a really god app for the shiny hunter! I appear to be experiencing a glitch however; I have bought the pro version before. Switched phones (android) then switched back to iPhone again. Now it won’t seem to let me restore or reset the purchase; thus making the app worthless. Hence; three stars. Was a good app while I could use it though. ### 4/5 — Great but it pauses my music *2018-11-26* For some reason it pauses my music every time I enter the app, can’t play it since it from control center either because shiny counter is an “audio source” so it overwrites my music ### 3/5 — Idk *2018-11-13* I’ve been liking it a lot, but I had to swap phones to a new one and now I can’t get the pro version even tho I had the pro version before...? ### 3/5 — Good but bad *2018-11-10* Look I love this app don’t get me wrong. I’ve used it for quite awhile now and had a lot of shinies recorded on it. But I didn't use it for awhile. And it just deleted all of my previous numbers. Sure I can get the number easily but the fact I don’t have all of those numbers pisses me off ### 3/5 — Premium version resets with update? *2018-10-05, version 2.0.1* Yeah... I purchased the premium features about a year or so ago... but I updated to find that I don't have those features anymore... might just be because I can't do in-app purchases anymore but I doubt it... please fix anyway... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — HS App *2025-03-27, version 2.2.1* Schiebt euch eure Pisswerbung sonst wo hin ### 1/5 — Dégouté *2019-12-20, version 2.2.1* L’application c’est remit a 0 du jour au lendemain j’ai perdu tout mes succès et a combien j’ai t sur ma dernière Chase ! ### 1/5 — Stole my money. *2019-06-11* I purchased the full edition and then got a new phone and it won’t let me restore my purchase even though it shows I have the pro version purchased. ### 1/5 — Mangelhaft *2019-03-10, version 2.2.1* Ist das euer Ernst ??? Etwas das mit einen Stift und Zettel genau so gut klappt verseucht ihr mit Werbung ? Und zusätzliche Optionen kosten Geld ? Wenn das selbe auch kostenlose auf den pc öffnen kann ? Nicht empfehlenswert ### 1/5 — The odds are wrong *2019-03-03* The app is alright and works pretty good, but I know for a fact that the odds for SOS in USUM are wrong and so are the odds for dex nav in ORAS. I don’t know if the odds are accurate for the other games but why show the odds if that’s not an accurate gauge of your chances? ### 1/5 — Not good *2018-10-28, version 2.0.1* You have to pay for most of this ### 1/5 — Paying to put on the shiny charm option? *2017-12-23, version 1.6* In S/M, l have shiny charm, but you’re gonna make us pay to have the option of shiny charm in our chains? ### 2/5 — Mouais *2025-12-21, version 2.2.1* Des fois le compteur se remet à 0 tout seul ### 2/5 — Pro version *2018-10-19* Purchased the pro version to only have it completely not work. Keeps telling me I’ve purchased it and won’t actually load the pro version. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling it many times. ### 2/5 — Great app, but can’t change phones *2018-10-08* I have had this app for a short while, and just upgraded phones and now it won’t restore the purchase for the premium purchase, and I can’t buy it again! That’s the only downside to it really for me though ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Lo que promete *2024-01-09, version 2.2.1* Decidi comprar la mejora por 0,99€ y la verdad que sirve, cumple con lo necesario (tampoco puedes pedir mas) ### 5/5 — Une seule chose à dire : *2020-01-01, version 2.2.1* Parfait ! ### 5/5 — Shiny hunter must! *2018-10-21* Love this app, and a cheap price of $1 gives you access to a lot of upgrades :) ### 5/5 — Nice app *2018-10-01* This app is very nice, I use it all the time for my hunts. The only sad thing is that there should be a mode for old games (gen V and prior). It could also be nice to have 2 counters for dual-hunting (I’m actually using the PP counter for this purpose). Aside from that, this app is flawless. Nice job! ### 5/5 — Needs the Chain for finding Pokémon in ultra wormholes *2018-09-28* Very nice application, now that ultra sun and moon came out, you should add a feature in keep track of chain of Pokémon in the ultra wormhole. Like I will pay another $2 for that feature if that’s possible maybe put it on your settings screen on top right corner. If my feedback been read from you guys I appreciate your time looking into it Thanks **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback RichySensei! We will update the app soon to include that mode and some more. ### 5/5 — Perfect for keeping count *2018-08-02* I post on the Pokémon amino group about my shiny hunts but have a hard time keeping track of all the info. This helps so much. Definitely worth the dollar to upgrade ### 5/5 — Useful app! *2018-02-10* I’ve been using this app for months now and one thing I’ve noticed is that there needs to be the VC GSC(Virtual Console-Gold, Silver, Crystal) reset counters. I would like to see the reset 1/8196 and the egg 1/64 with shiny ditto, 1/128 with shiny Gyarados/shiny male parent. Also, when I go to edit a name it changes back to the original name after. Just some things I’ve noticed as I’ve been using the app hope you decide to add this in your update; looking forward to it! (I payed for the app😄) ### 5/5 — Ultra Sun / Ultra Moon Support? *2018-01-25* Works great! Worth the dollar to upgrade. Any word on adding in support for the Ultras? Adding in a Wormhole counter and updating the SOS chain to not reset after 255 would be wonderful. ### 5/5 — Best shiny app yet *2018-01-13* Great options, great layouts, great tracking. Have used for the past 10 hunts. ### 5/5 — Juste parfait *2017-12-26, version 1.6* Grâce à cet appli j'ai eu mon zigzaton shiny✨🌟✨✨💫✨ avant j'étais démotivé et grâce à cet appli maintenant a chaque fois que je vois le nombre grandir ça me remotive presque immédiatement --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
