Besoin de payer pour certaines mises à jours mais vraiment pas cher. ### 3/5 — Very useful, but needs regular updates *2017-05-16, version 2.4.5* There are a few Minifigure collections missing from this now. I d go to 4-5 stars if it was updated more regularly. ### 2/5 — Two major flaws. *2017-02-20, version 2.4.5* First, the update schedule is horrendous. Basically you can't add any 2016 figures until the developer updates the database, probably some time in 2017. This means your database will ALWAYS be incomplete. A major deal-breaker for collectors serious enough about collecting to install a frigging app. Suggestion to the developer: Link to Bricklink minifigures for the current year. Other than those problems, the app is fairly well designed. Have to drop the rating to two stars because we're nearing the end of February 2017 and there are still none of the 2016 sets in the database except CMF S16 and Disney CMF. Other than those figures, that means the database is 14 months out of date. I get it. You're college students and can't handle this hobby. So open up the database for user entry. Until the database is updated or opened up, I cannot recommend this app. ### 2/5 — Outdated *2016-06-16, version 2.4.5* Even when you buy the most current collections in the app, none of the most recent figures show up. For example, none of the figures from the current Star Wars collections show up in the app. ### 3/5 — Pas mal *2016-05-27* Application pratique mais incomplète à moins de payer. Des traductions dans différentes langues seraient les bienvenues ### 3/5 — Lego *2016-05-11, version 2.4.5* I love the app. The reason I am giving such a low rating is due to the face that I can not add certain mini figure on to my have list unless I "buy" the figure. You can Not add certain sets. Other than that the app is great. Wish they had a IRQ scan option, even if I had to buy it as an add on like the updated version it would make this so much easier to add sets and promos. ### 3/5 — So far, so good *2016-05-02, version 2.4.5* Very good as a whole but in DESPERATE need of more regular updates. If this app was updated say monthly or even quarterly it would be a 5 star app no questions! ### 3/5 — 2016 please! *2016-02-21, version 2.4.5* Good app but please add Series 15 and other 2016 figures/sets! ### 2/5 — Idee gut, Umsetzung schlecht *2016-01-11* Die Darstellung und das Handling der App ist nicht mehr zeitgemäß. Ein Einloggen bei Brickset scheitert bzw endet in einer Dauerschleife. Das schlimmste ist aber, dass die Sets von 2015 noch nicht eingepflegt sind, obwohl bei Brickset bereits die 2016 angezeigt werden. Somit eine unnütze App ### 2/5 — Idee gut - Umsetzung schlecht *2015-05-22* Ich habe nichts dagegen, für Inhalte zu bezahlen, wenn sie gut und nützlich sind. Ich habe die App schon recht lange und bin vor allem von der Bedienung sehr enttäuscht. Umständlich und die Updates sind sehr schlecht umgesetzt. ### 3/5 — Updates have slowed to almost non-existent *2015-05-13, version 2.1.0* This app is brilliant if you are a lego collector or at least it was... 4 updates a year for the first couple of years now nothing since Dec 2014 so is woefully behind the latest series and other figures. If no updates are forthcoming will be forced to look elsewhere which is a real shame. Don't download and buy the old updates until they start to update again or you may be wasting your money. A real shame ### 4/5 — Pretty good app *2015-02-27, version 2.1.0* App has great cross references between minifigs and Lego sets. I got the app for free, and was a little upset that most of the newer minifigs info needs to be purchased separately in-app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Old old app *2022-11-21* Needs removal from App Store, doesn’t do anything. Don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — UPDATE *2018-04-25, version 2.5.1* When will this be updated?? Last update was 2016? That's ridiculous! ### 1/5 — Dissappointed *2018-01-01* Downloaded this app and purchased updates. Dissappointed that it is only updated to 2015. Save your money. **Developer response:** LEGO released more than 1600 Minifigure in 2016-2017 alone. We are working with collectors to get the photos, but this will take time. Keep an eye on our website for updates and how you can get involved. ### 1/5 — Out of date *2017-05-09* Needs to be updated. Useless currently. **Developer response:** We usually update once a year, but we are struggling with 2016 update since LEGO produced a record number of new figures. Have a look at our blog to find out how you can help. ### 1/5 — Very ordinary *2015-12-05* Finding that when you make a purchase of extra packs,they don't install. The app says purchasing,the end,it stayed like that for 24 hours. Tried the restore function purchases on the app,stayed like that a further 24 hours,wasted more cash. Even reinstalling app doesn't work ### 1/5 — No longer working *2015-08-08, version 2.1.0* The images don't load anymore. Clicked on app support but the website is unavailable. ### 1/5 — Functionality is very poor! *2014-12-27, version 2.1.0* I can't go back to the previous page or menu without turning off the app & opening it again. Would be great if it worked properly. Iphone 5 ### 1/5 — Abzocke *2014-12-20* Abhocke,man muss die letzten Jahre alle noch mal einzeln bezahlen ! ### 1/5 — Another "free apps" joke *2014-09-24, version 2.1.0* Every mini figure info after year 2010 need to be bought separately. Completely useless. As those information are always available free from Brickset or Lego itself. Remove this immediately. ### 1/5 — Not working for me. *2014-06-29, version 2.1.0* Nice looking app but doesn't import my mini figures from Brickset despite me having the latest database and purchasing all the additional mini figure databases. Waste of money for me at least. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best one out there but no longer updated *2018-02-11* This is by far the best Minifigure app but sadly is no longer updated. If you are a conpletionist like me. You need this app. I am up to 1400 figs now and still going ### 5/5 — Good *2017-09-27* Good ### 5/5 — Lego *2017-08-10, version 2.4.5* It is very good and easy to use. ### 5/5 — Amazing collectors tool *2017-02-20* A terrific app for the Lego enthusiast that is easy to use and extensive. ### 5/5 — Great app *2016-08-08, version 2.4.5* I can find everything I am looking for. Can't wait for the 2016 update ### 5/5 — Perfectappforme *2016-06-03, version 2.4.5* This is just what I have been looking for, I have so many odd Lego heads and this app is perfect for finding out where they belong ### 5/5 — Un must have *2015-08-10* Un incontournable pour les fans La bible ultime de la minifigurines lego ### 5/5 — Superbe et exhaustif *2015-08-09* Catalogue complet et très utile. ### 5/5 — Just What I've Always Needed *2015-01-23* This database allowed me to work out nor only which pants go with which shirt (and head, arms and accessories), but more importantly it helps me work out which sets the minifigures originally came with. A must for people with all their Lego mixed or with missing instructions. Reverse engineer your own sets. Excellent app. ### 5/5 — Helpful *2015-01-20, version 2.1.0* This app is extremely helpful, close-ups of the many figures heads is great. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
