Loving the app, however it seems like logging plays and adding to collection has stopped working on my phone (pixel 5)
★★★★☆Jean-Sebastien Bleau· Jan 16, 2021
Works well in general, a few bugs where photos stay on the previous game I looked at and even a refresh will not load images of the right game. Would also be cool to be able to go beyond the bgg top 100, I am able to change and load more paged when I search for a game then hit It's rank but not from the main page. Will change for a 5 if these things get fixed

Only thing missing is Rules & Podcast related information integration which is available via BGG website. If developers can scrap and add that, it would be cherry on top. Overall app is beautiful.

Only syncs a few my games. Not worth wasting my time when there are many other bgg apps
★★☆☆☆Benny Bottema· May 2, 2021
Too basic. Can't filter based on rating, or type of mechanics or number of players etc. Searching games switches to a list view without (sortable) columns. Only useful if you already know exactly what you are looking for.
★★☆☆☆Erik Johnson· Jan 9, 2021
Not ready for release yet / filled with bugs. Within the first 2 minutes of using discovered that after clicking on a board game it will only display the previous one you looked at, not the one you clicked on, until you hit the refresh button -- then it will load the correct information. After adding a game to your collection discovered that the app needs to be fully closed and reopened in order to execute that action again (add a second game). Still in alpha stage, needs more work.
