Comments on ShinyHunt - Shiny Counter for Android

★★★★★ Love the app. Works as expected, having an account with saved data is huge. Also being able to add a hunt and start the timer at whatever time I want is big as well. The only feature that's missing that I wish was in the app was that the entry would tell you on what DATE the hunt was started, as of now it only tells you when you found the Pokémon. It'd be nice if it would say what day the hunt began as well. Other than that, great app!!!

★★★★★ Great features, amazing coverage of all shiny hunting methods! Wish there was an offline mode. I spend a lot of time shiny hunting in places where I have spotty or no internet signal (airplanes, road trips, the wilderness, etc.) and I wish this app was able to track my offline encounters and time spent on each hunt, and then sync it to the cloud when it's next available. Currently, offline encounters are not counted and if I launch or refresh the app w/o internet, my hunts are not accessible.

★★☆☆☆ This application arbitrarily requires you to set up an account, is inundated with annoying advertisements, and has a strictly worse user interface than its predecessor of Sketch: Shiny Hunt Counter. I really liked Sketch, and it's a shame to see it become such a bad application!

★★☆☆☆ I love the app but it hasn't been updated in forever and we espically want the scarlet and violet dlc Pokémon added.

★★☆☆☆ Today I found out that shiny hunt replaced pokétch. From using both I can safely sag 1. The ui system for pokétch was 100x better. I don't understand how we've gone back 10 steps, but it's not good. 2.shiny hunt is a WAY laggyer pokétch. 3.pokétchs active counters are way easier to use and much easier to tell what you're odds are. Not to mention the lack of a port button for shiny hunts from the first app is upsetting. I saw alot of A drive tweets saying it takes 10 mins to move them over. No
