Comments on CODENAMES companion for Android

★★★★☆ Michel Fortin · Aug 16, 2021
Initially it did not work. After a reboot, all is good and it runs fine.
★★★★☆ Kamen Koutsarov · Jan 17, 2019
Does the job, eliminates the need of a sand clock timer. Eliminates the need for spymasters to hug looking at the small keys. Does both flawlessly. Lacks support for Code names Tandem though. Add tandem support and you will get the final 🌟
★★★★★ T B (Avatar) · Jan 6, 2025
A lot of other reviews don't seem to realize this is a companion app. This app works perfectly, including the audio (for English, at least).
★★☆☆☆ Derrick Reisdorf · Feb 18, 2018
This app is pointless. It adds nothing to the game. There are so many missed opportunities with this. #1) It would be cool if they added a way to add a round where the Spymasters took turns assigning the tiles to their color. The remaining tiles become bystanders with a random assassin. Or after the red team and then blue team choose a tile, a random bystander (or the assassin is assigned) #2) like someone else suggested, it would be also nice to be able to mark the tiles already guessed #3) also like someone else suggested, why not allow a way to flip the board upside-down, so you could have Spymasters sit across from each other? #5) why not also not add a way to track how many games each team has one (allow a way to set a way to track games won or number of tiles a team has won by) I'm almost angry that this app missed so many opportunities. Again, the app is pointless and adds NOTHING to the game.
★★☆☆☆ Maldus Alver · May 14, 2018
Replaced the blind but nothing else. It had a neat feature where you can set it down, and the operatives are hidden, but it doesn't reveal when the operatives touch the pad. The timer and sound I would just turn off as they are not needed and become just one more thing to get in the way of the game. Play with timers off and a stand to keep the list blind.
