GamingBuddy: Game Tracker

This is a wonderfully designed app! I’ve literally researched and tried every video game related app and web based platform out there. This one has a sleek design, very reasonable one time purchase option if desired, tags (also a work around for creating custom lists), ability to follow developers as well as publishers to get updates when they release new games (which no one else seems to have!), wishlist reminders, industry event reminders, and widgets! I appreciate that this is NOT a social app like many other game apps are trying to be. We don’t need yet another place for amateur reviews and following strangers. You can rate games and see professional reviews though. You can also mark completion status. The biggest thing missing for me is a way to export my collection to a spreadsheet or something like other apps offer. Is this planned? A way to connect to libraries like Steam, XBOX, and PlayStation would also be nice. FYI the “Contact” button in the app appears to be broken and doesn’t do anything.

I’ve been using this app since it first came out and this app has helped me tracking all my games. I’ve been able to make a huge dent in my backlog by having one place to organize and see how long these games take to beat. Highly recommend. Oh and the UI is slick!!

Absolutely gorgeous app and widgets, and I love using it. My only hope for improvement are that we get a better source for games. It’s still missing some really high profile games that I’m looking forward to that have been announced for a long time, like Avowed or Hellblade 2. Even if they don’t have dates yet, they should still be discoverable. MGS Delta is in there with TBD as the date, which I’d love to see for everything else.
