★★★★★Great experience with the app and amazing customer service!
My game group uses this app all the time when we’re playing our TTRPG’s and there’s always a scene to make the encounter better! When I had an issue with my app not being able to download new content I emailed their support staff and they had the issue resolved within the hour.
★★★★★Where have you been!
Simple and easy to use perfect in every way. Music is tied deeply to a story and this is going to be in every game night from now on.
★★★★★That is great, but consumes battery
This app concept is really awesome, and I was very much looking forward to using this to augment my D&D sessions. But, I found the app was consuming significant battery power even while not being used: it showed ad being my third most used app for the week despite me only trying it out for 20 minutes. I have deleted this app as a precaution, but I would download it again with the future update if the energy drain can be ameliorated.
★★★★★It’s Awesome
I’ve been looking for a good way to set up ambiance for my DnD games for a while. After I found this, my search was over! I’ve used it for years and my players and I have enjoyed it thoroughly. Thank you for making this wonderful app!
★★★☆☆Not a soundboard replacement
I'm looking for a simple soundboard type app which will allow me to play "effect" sounds in certain situations. Examples of this, from the Pocket Bard 3.0 video on YouTube, include different weapons firing, clashing of metal, and alarm bells ringing. I tried setting this up in Pocket Bard but could not find a simple mechanism to download and easily play these effect sounds. I think Pocket Bard may work well for background ambience, but it is not convenient for a simple soundboard.
