Let me know if have any ideas how to improve it or tweak it.

Couple of new "features" coming soon 😀

The status will show number of times you finished a game and also new "Replay #[number]" status.

+ the notes added to games are easier to view. I did not select the best link 😅

You can find this in the expanded "Share" menu on game detail screen

This took lot of time but finally done and out with the recent update 4.3.1 🎉

Easily create and share "share-able" images. You can select compact or "story" size that is great for Instagram for example.

I am planning to extend this so all feedback is welcome.

GamingBuddy 4.2.0 is slowly rolling out 😀

Lots of improvements for Favorites, "Recent activity" section to quickly access games you interacted with recently and more.

Finally had the time to do something about the "Up Next" carousel in favorites 😀

The previous version was one of the oldest UI "components" still in the app 😅

Minor update so the custom filter UI shows how many games it will match 🙂

This will avoid the situation where you'd create filter, tap "Confirm" and it would show "No games"
July 19, 2025 at 1:08 PM
Smaller upcoming feature 😁

Custom Filter will be extended with the ability to select minimal rating. So if you often rate the games you finish, then, for example, you can easily find the best games you finished and can re-play them.

Another new feature I am working on 😀

"Recent activity" - this new section shows games from your collection for which you recently updated status. This makes it super simple to find game you are just playing or recently finished.

#gaming #indieDev #iOSDev
July 14, 2025 at 5:12 PM
Continuing the work on this with the ability to change status at once for the selected games.

Another thing I am working on - Open Critic score directly in the list view.

This is currently for the "Best Games" lists and may seem a bit redundant but I plan to add sort options for the "Best by Platforms" lists so you can see the most recent games for example.

Working on the ability to "batch manage" your games 👍

So far these is the ability to toggle multi-select, selects games and then apply tags to all the selected games. 🏷️

Version 4.1.0 is now generally available from the App Store 🎉

These are mostly refinements and tweaks for 4.0.0 + some smaller additions like the Bookmark widget and fast access to Magic Find.

New "Game Bookmark" widget coming soon 👀

Best Games for GamingBuddy Unlimited now list all the "Mighty" games for PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in special lists.

This is perfect for me to find all the great PS5 games for example 👍
June 5, 2025 at 6:53 PM
New "Magic Find" feature will attempt to find games based on description without needing to know the exact name.

In this example I asked for "underwater exploration game with submarine" and it found Subnautica.
June 5, 2025 at 6:52 PM
Game detail screen for favorite games has been notably improved - there is now unified UI instead of two different boxes 😅

You can easily access all the available actions, add notes and more.

For upcoming games there is also info about releases.
June 5, 2025 at 6:50 PM

Did not quite manage "by end of May" but Version 4 was just submitted to review 🥳

Simplified game "management" on the detail screen. This makes it easier to update the status, change platform or perhaps add custom note...
May 21, 2025 at 3:58 PM
"Magic Find" lets you describe game in your own words and it will try to find it.

This example asks for "underwater exploration game" and one of the results in Subnautica.
May 21, 2025 at 3:57 PM
You can use the new custom tags however you like. For example to further organize your library. In this example you may want to mark some games as "Xbox Game Pass" or "Ongoing" to have list of games you can return to.

You can then filter by these tags and also combine it with other filters.
