Ratings and reviews

I used to like this app because it recommended games I might like and many other cool stuff. But a while ago most of my games weren't able to sign into my account automatically, even though I had activated that feature. After manually signing in, I realized my achiements weren't being unlocked. I completed CoverFire and not a single one of its achievements have been unlocked. I thought this was a glitch in the game but I realized there's a problem with my account. I'd gladly give it 5 stars.

Does what it's meant to, helpful for saving progress on some games, I cycle thru games often so it's nice not having to start all over. Currently, it refuses to update, ik others have mentioned it but I feel the need to as well. I honestly just wish it was compatible with more games, most games have other ways of saving data so it's not a huge deal.

For some reason, Google just have a way of pulling things off. I recently reviewed it as two stars about some annoying bugs and after 4 hours, it started working for no obvious reason. No update or whatsoever, it's nice to see things come together and I accessed my game data successfully. But am yet to discover this bug in the future. Who knows what the future lies for play games?
