### 4/5 — Yams grille

*2026-08-01*

Trop rigide. On ne peut pas changer le nombre de dés,  ni rajouter des rubriques et quelques bugs (exemple : 2  cases qui se cochent en même temps, Comme le Yams

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour ! 😊 Les options de personnalisation (ajout de rubriques, variantes de règles, etc.) font partie des fonctionnalités que j’aimerais développer. Pour le bug des deux cases qui se cochent en même temps, je vais le vérifier et le corriger. Merci de m’avoir signalé ces points ! 🎲

### 3/5 — Pas très moderne

*2026-06-05*

Je trouve l’app pas très moderne en termes d’expérience utilisateur et de design.

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour 😊

L’application a récemment bénéficié d’importantes améliorations et d’une modernisation. Je m’efforce de trouver un équilibre entre simplicité et fonctionnalités, tout en continuant à faire évoluer le design et l’expérience utilisateur à chaque mise à jour.

Merci d’avoir pris le temps de partager votre avis 🎲

### 4/5 — Low scoring, super hard

*2026-03-17*

Has anyone else noticed a change in luck?  BAD luck? I enjoy the game layout and it is easy to use. I play against my sisters. - my rolls but listing them as players.  Lately, I have not been able to shake 4 of a kind, or Yahtzees. And the bonus is 50-50. It is as if the fives and sixes are non-existent.  I do not like these new “odds”.

Added 3/17/2026
Okay, thanks for your reply.  But, I still have very bad luck.  
So, can you add an “Easy” mode? With preferences on the higher numbered dice? Many of my first rolls end up with “chance” results or 1 point Ace rolls. Consistently. So I quit those games, or reset.  Thank you for taking this suggestion.   😉

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! 😊
Just to reassure you: the app doesn’t change the odds or influence the rolls in any way — everything is fully random, just like real dice. Streaks of bad (or good!) luck can happen 😅

That said, I’ll also double-check everything with the virtual dice to make sure it’s behaving exactly as expected. Thanks for playing! 🎲

### 5/5 — Fantastic Yahtzee Tracker

*2025-10-31, version 4.2*

Having used some others this is really smooth and straightforward.

### 5/5 — Super application

*2025-09-25*

Application qui évolue positivement de mises à jour en mises à jour. Les concepteurs sont très à l’écoute des retours des joueurs et font monter en gamme leur application. C’est pour nous un indispensable pour des parties endiablées. Finies les feuilles en papier, place au smartphone grâce à cette superbe application.

**Developer response:** Merci beaucoup pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis d’apprendre que votre expérience a été positive. Vos commentaires nous encouragent à continuer à offrir le meilleur service possible.

### 5/5 — Best Yahtzee scorecard ever!!!!

*2025-09-17*

This is the best app! So easy to use! Great updates! And great customer service!!!! I would love to see an undo button as sometimes I fat finger my phone and click on the wrong line, type in a score and then forget what number was already there….

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review! 🙏 In the latest update we added a list of the last shots (bottom right of the screen), an undo last shot option, and the last score is now highlighted in the scoresheet with a different border color. Hope this makes your games even smoother!

Hope this helps make your games even smoother — and thanks again for your kind words and support!

### 5/5 — Great score sheet

*2025-08-11*

It even adds up for you.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your great feedback! 😊
We’re really glad you enjoy the score sheet — we’ve designed it to be simple, clear, and easy to use so you can focus on having fun with your games.

### 5/5 — Super

*2025-08-11*

Lappli est géniale mais y’a un nouveau bug avec la partie qui s’arrête dès qu’on inscrit le premier score, ce qui fausse les statistiques

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre message 😊 Désolés pour ce bug. Pouvez-vous nous envoyer un e-mail avec des captures d’écran à yatzy.scores@gmail.com ? Cela nous aidera à le corriger rapidement.

### 3/5 — Changes?

*2025-07-25*

I was really enjoying this app, but suddenly it’s changed and the grids don’t line up. It’s hard to know what line I’m placing a score on now.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your feedback, and sorry for the earlier layout issue! We’ve since fixed the grid alignment in the latest update, so everything should be back to normal now. Please let us know if you still notice anything off — and thanks again for using the app!!

### 5/5 — Please Add

*2025-07-05*

We really love your app! There just 2 things we would love to see. 
1) An undo button. Sometimes we are a little tipsy and we misclick the player and override another score. Then begins the game of “what was that score?” lol
2) We now use your app on our iPad so all 4 players can easily see at our table. I just wish the scores would be a little bigger. With 4 players there’s a lot of empty space that could be utilized. 

Other than that amazing app! Keep up the great work!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the kind and ongoing support—it really helps us grow!
We’ll definitely look into improving the score display on iPad to better use the available space.

As for the undo button, that’s a great suggestion. You might’ve noticed that the last score added is highlighted with a colored square—though we realize it could be more intuitive. We’ll think about ways to improve or expand that functionality.

Thanks again for the thoughtful feedback and for using the app while tipsy—it’s the highest compliment! 😄

### 5/5 — beste kniffel app

*2025-06-23*

Hab mir die pro Version gekauft, weil ich die tolle app unterstützen möchte. Sehr intuitiv und kein unnötiger schnick schnack. Man kann die app auch so nutzen aber für 3€ habe ich die Werbung entfernt und das finde ich für eine gute app auch fair. einzige bitte ist dass es cool wäre wenn man die kniffel extrem Felder hinzufügen könnte - oder noch besser die Möglichkeit selbst neue Zeilen hinzufügen zu können. Das würde die app perfekt machen!

**Developer response:** Vielen herzlichen Dank für dein tolles Feedback und deine Unterstützung mit der Pro-Version! Es freut uns sehr, dass dir die App gefällt. Gute Nachrichten: In der aktuellen Version kannst du jetzt eigene Punktzahlen manuell eingeben – das macht das Spiel flexibler und kommt deinem Wunsch nach neuen/extremen Feldern entgegen. Viel Spaß weiterhin mit Kniffel!

### 5/5 — Sprachen

*2025-05-21*

Frage - wo kann man die Sprache einstellen 
In Einstellungen finde ich da nix 😕

**Developer response:** Hallo! Danke für dein Feedback 😊
Die App unterstützt jetzt auch die deutsche Sprache – sie wird automatisch anhand der Spracheinstellungen deines Geräts ausgewählt. Eine manuelle Auswahl ist aktuell nicht nötig. Viel Spaß beim Spielen! 🇩🇪

### 1/5 — Deux paiements ?

*2026-06-19*

Application très bien, mais j’ai payé deux fois et je ne parviens pas à voir la différence sur les deux achats (le deuxième contenait une offre).
Je changerai ma note si je comprends ce que j’ai acheté.

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour. 😊
Nous sommes actuellement en contact afin de clarifier cette situation et trouver la meilleure solution.
J’espère pouvoir résoudre cela rapidement et répondre à vos attentes. 🎲

### 1/5 — Arnaque

*2026-05-25*

Arnaque ! je viens de payer 2,99€ pour débloquer plusieurs joueurs et lorsque je veux les ajouter ils me redemandent 2,99€
J ai donc payé une première fois pour rien 
Scandaleux ! Fuyez !

**Developer response:** Bonjour, désolé pour cette expérience 🙏. Il s’agit parfois d’un problème de restauration d’achat avec Apple, mais il peut être résolu rapidement.

N’hésitez pas à contacter le support depuis l’application, je réponds personnellement à chaque demande. 🎲

### 1/5 — POP UP ADS?!?!

*2025-11-12*

Ridiculous to pay for an app and stillbirth pop-up ads!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your message — that definitely shouldn’t happen. If you’ve purchased the Pro version, you should not see any ads at all. This is most likely an Apple authentication issue, and I’m happy to help you fix it.

Please try tapping “Restore Purchases” in the app’s Settings. If ads are still showing, feel free to contact me at yatzy.scores@gmail.com and I’ll sort it out for you right away.

### 1/5 — 4$ is too much

*2025-09-08*

Too many ads. The app should be 1$

**Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback! We try to keep ads at a low frequency so they don’t interrupt your games too much, and there’s also a one-time option to remove them completely.

We hope this balance makes the app fair and enjoyable, and your input will help us keep improving

### 1/5 — Pub

*2025-07-18*

Beaucoup trop de pubs par partie

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour, Nico ! Nous comprenons que les publicités puissent parfois sembler trop fréquentes. Elles nous aident à maintenir l'application gratuite pour tous. Pour une expérience sans interruption, vous pouvez choisir l'option sans pub via un achat unique. Merci d’avoir essayé l'app et à bientôt pour une nouvelle partie de Yams ! 🎲

### 1/5 — Suuuuuuucks

*2024-11-13*

Too many ads

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback! 🎉 We're happy to share that in our latest version, we've significantly reduced the number of ads for a smoother and more enjoyable experience. We hope you'll give it another try and let us know what you think. Your input helps us improve! 😊

### 1/5 — Missing Yahtzee bonus

*2023-12-29*

This app doesn’t allow for Yahtzee bonus and joker rules. It’s impossible to add your second Yahtzee score of 100. 
And the rules aren’t complete with the joker rules.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest feedback! 🙏 We understand how important the Yahtzee bonus and joker rules are for dedicated players. While these rules aren’t fully implemented right now, we’re always looking to improve. We’ll take this into consideration for future updates to make the app more comprehensive. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your support!

### 2/5 — Placement of object over score

*2025-11-09*

The status tracker is covering the score in the right hand slide

**Developer response:** Thanks for letting us know! 🙏 It sounds like the status tracker might be overlapping part of the score display on your screen — sorry about that. We’re looking into adjusting the layout so everything is clearly visible in the next update.

If you’d like to share a quick screenshot at yatzy.scores@gmail.com, that would really help us fine-tune the fix.

### 2/5 — Adverts

*2025-07-15*

Far too many and frequent

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, Jay11ney! We understand that ads can feel a bit frequent at times. We've tried to keep them balanced to support the app while keeping it free for everyone. If you prefer an uninterrupted experience, there's also an option to remove ads with a one-time upgrade. We truly appreciate your support and hope you keep enjoying the game! 🎲

### 2/5 — PUB Maximale

*2025-05-16*

L’application fait le taf par contre les nombreuses pubs pendant les parties c’est horrible

**Developer response:** Merci pour votre retour ! Nous sommes ravis que l’application remplisse bien sa fonction. Concernant les publicités, nous comprenons que cela puisse être frustrant. Elles nous aident à maintenir l’app gratuite, mais nous travaillons sur des moyens de les rendre moins intrusives. Merci pour votre patience et votre soutien !

Super App mit tollen Optionen, dafür 1,99€ ist mehr als gerechtfertigt.

### 5/5 — Just right

*2026-04-12*

This app is just right. It’s polished and kept up to date, but not overly complex or frustrating. It’s exactly what you want: a score card that works and that’s easier than paper.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the kind words! 😊
Really glad you appreciate the balance — simple, reliable, and easy to use is exactly what we aim for. More improvements are on the way! 🎲

### 5/5 — Can we see score item averages?

*2026-03-03*

Hi. Love this app! My friend and I have played hundreds of games together and we are finding that our average scores differ by ~10 points. We want to see what causes this difference: is it possible to see our average score per score item? I.e my average score for 3ofakind, full house, etc.

If it’s possible to somehow import the spreadsheet data and aggregate it myself I can do that, but it didnt seem like that data exists. Please let me know!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the kind words! 😊 That’s an interesting idea. Right now the app doesn’t show average scores per category, but I’d love to learn more about how you’re analyzing your games.

Feel free to reach out at yatzy.scores@gmail.com so we can look into it together. Thanks for playing so many games! 🎲

### 5/5 — One of the best scorecards I have seen

*2026-01-18*

They really did a wonderful job of making this app easy to use and having a really slick interface.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for the kind words!

We’re really happy to hear you enjoy the clean interface and ease of use. We’re actively working to keep improving the app and adding new features. Thanks for playing! 🎲
