### 3/5 — Train doesn't work

*2025-03-22*

Train doesn't work after update

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you for getting in touch. It is a caching problem. We have already reset the cache of all maps on our site. If the problem persists, please uninstall and reinstall the app. (ATTENTION: If you are a Pro user, please export your favourites in the app under settings before proceeding). We apologize for the inconvenience.

### 4/5 — im broke :(

*2025-01-05*

fyi: to be able to smoke, for example, main on B on mirage on con on mirage, you need to pay. insta smokes are free tho (thats all you need tbh)

**Developer response:** Hi and thank you for your sensible review. We appreciate it very much. Have fun on the server.

### 2/5 — Neues Abo System eine Frechheit

*2024-09-04, version 4.0*

Ich nutze diese App schon Jahrelang und war ein großer Fan. Keine nervige Werbung, große Auswahl an Nade Lineups und damals konnte man sie kostenlos als Favorit speichern.

Mit dem neuen Abo System muss man für neue Features jetzt zahlen. Eine Einmalzahlung zur Unterstützung der Entwickler kann ich gerne zahlen aber das Ganze wird nur in einem Abo Modell angeboten. Schade!

### 3/5 — Ohne Favoriten nutzlos

*2024-06-30, version 2.0*

Seitdem man die Line Ups nicht mehr Speichern kann nutzlos um ingame nach zu schauen

### 3/5 — A lot of smokes missing for CS2

*2024-05-31, version 2.0*

The app is great but a lot of smokes are missing for cs2 that were there in GO. Pls add them back.

### 5/5 — GOD

*2024-05-09*

What a beautiful… it’s my dream to have this one helper

Thanks to creator for this app

Тиба

### 4/5 — Mandatory Review

*2024-02-20, version 1.9*

Good stuff

### 5/5 — 5*

Really good app for smokes, thank you!!

### 5/5 — muito bom

### 5/5 — Super aplikacja

*2024-01-07, version 1.9*

Super aplikacja zawiera dużo fajnych smoków i innych granatów, lecz brakuje niektórych granatów(zawiera tylko granaty które rzuca się z bezpiecznych pozycji i te która są naprawdę przydatne, mogli by też dodać inne)

### 1/5 — Subscription for a smoke app, really?

*2026-06-27*

It’s literally just ripping off a website. Why would you make people pay for specific smoke spots?

### 1/5 — Paywall

*2026-05-16, version 9*

Was ok until they paywalls every smoke. Just watch a free YouTube video instead

### 1/5 — Schade

*2024-10-14, version 4.0*

Die App ist eigentlich so gut. Das Abo Modell hätte nicht sein müssen. Werde sie erstmal deinstallieren

### 1/5 — помойка и вот почему

*2024-09-25*

за адекватный раскид надо платить, дичь, зайдите в интернет и посмотрите, приложение полный шлак. 600 эло оценят

**Developer response:** Good luck with your online search.

### 1/5 — unusefulness

*2024-08-05*

“I recently tried out this app, and while it has some useful features, I found the cost to be excessively high. The subscription fees are not justified by the value it provides. There are other alternatives available that offer similar functionalities at a much more reasonable price. Overall, I don’t think it’s worth the investment.”

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback, we will take it into consideration. Please remember that you can still use over 1600 lineups for free and all lineups recommended by BIG.

### 1/5 — Платная подписка

*2024-08-03*

В приложении есть функция платной подписки, без которой вам не показывают одни из самых полезных гранат.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. We think it's very subjective what the most important lineups are. As an example, you can continue to use and filter all the lineups recommended by BIG. Please also remember that over 1600 lineups are still free.

### 1/5 — Cool Idea, if it would work.

*2024-07-07, version 2.0*

Neither on my ipad nor my iPhone this app works, when you click on a lineup to see the pictures it just doesn’t show anything.

### 1/5 — Gab

*2022-10-04*

Cher

**Developer response:** Hello, we would appreciate if you could give us constructive feedback so that we can improve our service and your user experience. Please let us know what your issues are and we will always try to help. You can also email smokebaron@skinbaron.de

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2021-06-18*

iPhone 8 не работает приложение, все останавливается на том, когда вылазит надпись о приложении, и информации о нем ( в самом начале), тыкаю по экрану и эта надпись не пропадает

**Developer response:** Hi, you have to scroll down and then you are able to go to the app or hide the popup permanently. Let me know if you have any further issues and please overthink your review when you tested the app.

### 2/5 — Kompatibilität IPad nur bedingt

*2025-09-05, version 5*

App funktioniert nur hochkant. Auf dem IPad, welches ich immer quer verwende, wird das X zum schließen des jeweiligen Tutorials nicht mehr angezeigt. Muss daher immer App schließen und daher unbrauchbar.

### 5/5 — exciting

*2026-04-23*

very good, finally remembered molotovs on inferno, don’t listen to people who can’t find needed utility in the app

### 5/5 — 10/10

### 5/5 — Super app

*2026-01-09, version 8*

This is app wonderfull

### 5/5 — Славно

*2024-11-18*

То чувство, когда ты знаешь, что все раскидки на всех соревновательных картах лежат у тебя в кармане и ты в любой момент можешь их посмотреть, хоть между раундами. Это как будто легидный софт, где ты можешь еще выбирать избранные и учить именно их не ища их в куче других гранат. При чем все бесплатно и почти без рекламы. 10/10

**Developer response:** Thank you very much for your review, we really appreciate it.

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2024-11-13, version 4.0*

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2024-10-13, version 4.0*

Perfect job man recpect

### 5/5 — Update

*2024-08-21, version 4.0*

Nice that you updated dust but there is some textures that are different in ancient such as one of the t side ancient ct A site smoke

### 5/5 — Starkes Werkzeug um Premium Games zu gewinnen

*2024-08-05, version 4.0*

die App ist sehr leicht bedienbar, und es sind alle wichtigen Smokes in die App integriert sowohl auf der Terroristenseite wie auch auf der anti Terror Seite. das werfen der Smokes kann Spiel entscheidend sein. ebenfalls ein Pluspunkt für die App ist, dass die App ohne nervige Werbung arbeitet.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2024-07-28, version 2.0*

I don’t usually review apps but had to give 5⭐️ to this one. Great apps, works smoothly and has every nade you will ever need.

### 5/5 — Quite handy

*2024-05-09, version 1.9*

The app contains a very large amount of lineups for the relevant maps, and it's properly designed for use on a phone, so it's very convenient for looking up a lineup during a timeout.

Pretty much any piece of utility imaginable is covered, altough in some cases the positions that they're thrown from are a little strange, and you'll often be presented with W+jumpthrows and the like when you can make it work with just a jumpthrow and a slight lineup adjustment.

Because of this I often find myself utilising other sources or finding grenades myself when I'm preparing full utility sets in a private server, but for finding something on the fly this app remains highly useful.

The catalogue of grenades available is expanded with tens to hundreds of lineups every few weeks, and those are implemented without requiring an app update, so it's good to go whenever you need it.

Also, the app is not monetized in any way. No ads, no premium version, no rate limits, nothing. Not the biggest achievement in itself, but with how most mobile apps look these days it should be mentioned anyways.
