Ratings and reviews

Amazing app with a lot of potential, I have already seen a lot of improvement in recent updates and I really think that this could be the end all be all for life counters. I do think that it would be dope to be able to change the font of that names or at least the font size/ colors because people in my play group have complained that it's hard to read.

Just installed it and tried setting up a mock game so I could start figuring out how it works before bringing it to my playgroup. I've been using Lifelinker but it's limited (can't track partner commanders, etc.). This, I believe, is everything I'm looking for - if I can just figure it out! Wow, I can't find anything that says "do this or click here". I've been figuring it out slowly but a good 5 minute youtube video would go a million miles. Once I learn how to USE the app I will gladly support financially - but without some way to teach me I'm lost for now....

Love this app. Great design, very easy to use, and wonderful contextual donation options. I think the only thing that i can think of that it really makes me still want is being able to have a game shared p2p/over a network so that you could, for example, be playing paper magic over a webcam (especially right now) or have each person with their own app and have them all sync up and be reviewable by any player at any time. Alongside this would be something to be able to go into "single player" management mode where you only see yours face up, but still having it sync with everyone else's "game". Thanks a ton for this!
