### 4/5 — SO HELPFUL

*2026-05-22, version 2.3.5*

I just wish there weren’t as many pay to use features that would be really useful in the base app

### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-05-15, version 2.3.3*

Very helpful but I hate that some features are hidden by paywall and there’s so many ads

### 3/5 — Questions

*2026-05-09, version 2.3.1*

I’m paying monthly for a subscription, but still getting ads?  And am I missing how to log in? Logging in may affect the ads?

### 2/5 — Good but….

*2026-04-13, version 2.2.0*

OK, I’m not saying this app is really horrible. I’m just saying that everything that the app should really be used for is under a pay wall like I download the app to look for where enemies are or who wear armor set are located but this is under a subscription that most people can’t really pay. Otherwise, this app is really good, but just because of all the things that you need to pay for is gonna have to be a two star for me.

### 2/5 — 2stars

*2026-04-09, version 2.2.0*

Makes me use money to use the the cool stuff

### 2/5 — App isn’t the same

*2026-03-24, version 2.2.0*

At first I could use the app in part some things needa to be paid for which made sense. Now though you have to buy everything this app is nothing more than a checklist now

### 3/5 — Lag

*2026-03-21, version 2.2.0*

When I go to filter it kicks me out of the app

### 4/5 — Coolest map  Ever 👍😃

*2026-02-19, version 2.2.0*

I like it a lot but paying for the categories is not really cool

### 5/5 — 젤다 필수앱

*2026-01-27*

대단한 근성으로 만든 앱입니다. 제작자에게 무한한 영광이 있기를 !!

### 5/5 — 진짜 좋다아아아ㅏ

*2026-01-25*

전 젤다 왕눈 1년차 초보 초딩인데…
1년이나 됏는데 뭘해야 할지 몰라서 빈둥 빈둥 했는데 이앱이 있어서 쉽고 편하게 게임할수가 있네요.^^
좋은 템 위치랑 코로그 열매 위치,
보스몹 위치가 있어서 진짜 좋아요!!
(나도 이제 고인물이 돼는건가?)
아, 그 조망대 위치도 있어서 맵도 많이 넓혔어요!
암튼 이앱 젤다 하는 분 이시면 꼭 까세요! 완전 좋아욧!!!(광고 아님)
난 젤다하러 가야 겠다

### 5/5 — Peak

*2026-01-25, version 2.1.6*

Peak

### 4/5 — The Helpful Companion

*2026-01-23, version 2.1.6*

I feel it has helped me get a lot done in my Zelda world and lets me be able to know how much I have done in the game. It makes me feel very accomplished when I check something off. This is just my opinion though. You can have your own opinion on this app, but hopefully you feel it is a great app. This is my review on Tears Companion.

### 5/5 — Avery

*2026-01-10, version 2.1.5*

It’s a helpful game for me

### 5/5 — So so so helpful

*2026-01-10, version 2.1.5*

This app is so useful for finding any item in the entire game. I’ve used it since I started playing totk and still use it.

### 1/5 — please

*2026-05-25, version 2.3.5*

can unFIX THE LAG PLEASE the app continue crashing when we open it!!! we can OPEN THE APP

### 1/5 — Great app… except one fatal flaw,

*2026-05-25, version 2.3.5*

Don’t get me wrong, I loved this app, but when I wanted to look at the compendium, I had to buy them, same as mostly everything else. The graphics were bad, it showed to much things at once and it gave me “I didn’t put work in” vibes

### 1/5 — Don’t pay for it

*2026-05-17, version 2.3.4*

It’s ridiculous that they make you pay for enemy locations, post incorrect information, and then don’t bother to update it if you politely send in a correction. Been over a year.

They also don’t mention if the enemies scale, which makes it pretty useless when hunting for certain enemies.

Good for treasure chests, but with the contempt they feel for their customers, skip the paid version.

### 1/5 — Scam. Should list paid not free.

*2026-05-06, version 2.3.1*

Scam. Should list paid not free.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2026-05-04, version 2.3.0*

Doesn’t even open with iOS 26.4.2 - recent “bug fix” update doesn’t resolve the problem.  Tried everything. Not sure the developer knows what they’re doing. App worked great up until iOS 26.4.

### 1/5 — Purchase

*2026-01-17, version 2.1.5*

I’ve been gaming with these apps for a few years now. About a year ago I made an in app purchase to remove ads. Now, all of a sudden, all the apps available to apple want to charge a subscription based format  instead of a one time purchase within the last year. This app has also swapped to subscriptions. I no longer have my ad free game that I paid for and they want me to subscribe instead, and they will not refund me what I paid to remove ads in app or grandfathered me in with the purchase, I had already made prior. It won’t even give me the option to restore the purchase.

### 1/5 — Greed takes over!

*2025-11-27, version 2.1.3*

So you have to PAY now for parts of, what was, a free app originally.
TYPICAL. Enjoy worshipping your new god.

### 1/5 — Um

*2025-11-16, version 2.1.1*

Have you herd of Zelda notes

### 1/5 — Crashes my phone

*2025-07-25, version 1.4.13*

This app worked for a total of 10 minutes. I was glad that I finally had a way to sort which shrines and light roots I still needed. Then it decided to pause my music off and on, lag my phone and make everything freeze. Never experienced this problem before downloading this app

### 1/5 — subscription?? really??

*2025-06-19, version 1.4.13*

making people pay for or use a subscription service for stuff they can find on the internet for FREE is crazy!!

*2026-07-29, version 2.4.1*

Love the game it helped me get and do so much things although I don’t like how you have to pay money to do some things

*2026-07-23, version 2.4.1*

It’s so helpful

### 5/5 — Read

*2026-07-21, version 2.4.1*

This is the best game if you have problems with totk and I had problems with everything but this game helped me a lot with the bosses

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2026-07-21, version 2.4.1*

Very helpful! One note of the dev sees this: the “Aerocuda wing” icon in synthesis is the wrong icon, it shows the molduga fin.

### 5/5 — Helpful!

*2026-05-25, version 2.3.5*

This has been very helpful in tracking down those pesky korok seeds

### 5/5 — TOTK

*2026-05-18, version 2.3.5*

Totally love this game

### 5/5 — Makes it so easy

*2026-05-13, version 2.3.3*

With so many things going on in this game this app helps me keep up with everything! I can actually spend more time playing and not going back to do something I already have or quickly find something when I’m stuck

### 5/5 — Cooool

*2026-04-05, version 2.2.0*

This app is insane! I love the fact that you can mark the spaces complete✅!  The ai companion is super cool! All of the ammibos are cool to it requires NO WI-FI which I personally love! The app is great if you are a Zelda Nerd!!!🗡️

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2026-03-18, version 2.2.0*

This helped me fined so many things I didn’t know where there

### 5/5 — Helpful!

*2026-02-16, version 2.2.0*

I, as a professional Zelda gamer, love this app. When I was early game, I could never find any control sticks, but this app  
Helped me find some in a chest. It also helped me avoid gloom hands.
