### 5/5 — Super useful and well-designed tool for gamers!

*2023-09-18, version 1.1.5*

I love video games but these days, I’m usually too busy to closely follow new releases and stay up to date with launch dates and such…

GameButler is a great tool to do just that: when I see an exciting game announced somewhere I can add it and will be notified when it launches.

Another great use case is when friends recommend games to me: just add the game to my wishlist and whenever I want to try a new game I can easily find it there again.

Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — The perfect companion

*2023-09-18, version 1.1.5*

I’m not a die-hard gamer by any means, so there’s only a handful of games I anticipate each year. This app has been great for helping me track the games that are on the horizon, and it notifies me when one of the games I’m watching is released!

### 5/5 — Sick app

*2023-07-26, version 1.0.5*

awesome!!!!

### 5/5 — Wonderful app for gaming

*2023-06-25, version 1.0.3*

This is a great, easy to use app to keep track of games you have and games you are looking forward to. It has several features specific to gaming not available in other media management apps like tracking play time and showing trailers and screenshots. When I get time to game I can never decide what to play and this helps reduce decision fatigue and make gaming feel weirdly productive!

### 5/5 — Useful app and beautiful icons!

*2023-06-20, version 1.0.1*

Makes it easy to keep track of my wish list and games I’m currently playing!

### 5/5 — Great way to keep track of your games

*2023-06-17, version 1.0*

Gameston is a great way to track what you are playing and new games you want.   It will also help you to discover what’s coming out soon!

### 5/5 — very good

*2023-06-16, version 1.0*

it is an app

### 5/5 — Good for gamers

*2023-06-16, version 1.0*

makes it easy to track and list games you wanna play

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2023-06-14, version 1.0*

Very useful and easy to use

### 2/5 — Nice concept but the worst ui

*2025-03-01, version 2.2.2*

This app seems to be a great concept but the UI is just horrible!! No preview images of the games on the main screen, etc. I think is better to have a global search over the main screen so you can select all the games that you want and then add it to your lists by selecting them. Tip: there is an app that is called movix so you can see the ui implementation and my point. Please check it out! Regards @JRGN

### 4/5 — Almost better than GameTrack!

*2024-02-20, version 1.5.1*

I love how clean this app is, very native looking and lightweight. I would love if you added a sort of price history section when looking at a game and also sort my library by what platform.

### 4/5 — So far, so good.

*2023-12-25, version 1.4*

Thank you for this app. Only issue I have had with it is when changing to a custom icon it won’t change.

Other than that, the app works as intended!

I have one feature request: We’ve got the standard list view, can we get a gallery view?

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed

*2026-01-13, version 2.3.5*

Thank you for making a clean and easy mobile app where I can track video games I am just excited for instead of tedious wishlist management on steam. I love the features that you have in this, no ads, no bloat, happy to support you.

### 5/5 — Really solid game tracker

*2025-04-29, version 2.3.2*

Winston is a very good game tracker. It’s got a good, clean design, and has pretty much all the features you’re looking for. It’s also a pretty good deal that you can use it for free, and the premium features are just a lifetime unlock for the cost of a nice coffee.

### 5/5 — ITAD integration would push this over the top

*2025-03-01, version 2.2.2*

Please integrate with IsThereAnyDeal and/or PSPrices, that would make this app indispensable for both games I want to watch for price drops and games I want to follow progress and release dates for.

### 5/5 — Best game tracking app I've used!

*2025-01-22, version 2.2*

Winston is the first game tracking app I've used that I'm truly happy with (and I've used a lot of other apps for this)! It has nearly all the features and details that I want, laid out in a way that's easy to get around.

It has a great level of detail when viewing a game. Related games, DLCs, etc., plus useful links like Wikia, Steam, and so on. I can add a score to a game and see how other players scored it, which is missing in many other apps. Notes will be handy for games that involve a lot of backtracking (Metroidvania).

This may not sound like a big deal, but navigating the app feels like a normal iOS app; it's easy to move around between different games and sections of the app, both on iPhone and iPad. This is a major issue for me with some other game tracking apps.

I'm excited to see what comes next in Winston!

### 5/5 — Great App!

*2024-06-07, version 1.6.2*

I was looking for something that was simple to use and this works great! I checked out your TV/Movie App as well, its equally good for tracking upcoming stuff. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Well designed game tracking app

*2024-06-01, version 1.6.2*

Works amazingly on both my phone and tablet

### 5/5 — WINSTON DEV IF YOU’RE READING THIS THANK YOU!!

*2024-05-14, version 1.6.2*

one of the most useful apps ever best part is no ADS!! 

bought the pro version even though i don’t need it because i genuinely love this app. THANK YOU WINSTON DEV!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic app with native iOS UI and responsive dev

*2024-05-14, version 1.6.2*

Really great app for game tracking - love the simple native iOS UI which isn’t overly busy and helps performance run perfectly as well as a responsive dev who adds new features constantly

My two dream features for this app to be perfect would be:

1) a wishlist function separate from lists (so that games on your wishlist don’t get added to your “library” the way they currently are)

2) for lists to save sorting - currently you can sort them by release date, title, etc., but it reverts to the default sorting by date added whenever you refresh the app

### 5/5 — Great app to track games in lists

*2024-03-02, version 1.5.2*

I wish I could sort lists by their IGDB rating and I wish I could display the and filter by platforms in custom lists too.
