★★★★★ Then we enter the realm of paywalled rules, paywalled list slots (only 1 list without subscription).
★★★★★ Paywalled to play with price gouged plastic.
★★★★★ scam, sucks, rip-off, con, scum, etc
Crashes and freezes20%

60 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Frequently crashes in the war journal.
★★★★★ only source for a lot of core rules updates, then contradicts itself all over the place and crashes when you search.
★★★★★ Half the time I try to search up rulings the app crashes and typically does at least once per game.
Limits, credits, locked features13%

40 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ The app doesn't function as a list builder as you are limited to one list unless you subscribe, which wouldn't be bad if you could see all the rules.
★★★★★ Stealth updates for core rules and faction rules (which are locked behinda pay wall for codexs) are not shown when the app updates.
★★★★★ rules for each faction locked behind a paywall is absolutely ridiculous
Worse after an update13%

39 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ How am I supposed to be expected to know which models are worth buying if I don't know their currently updated stats?
★★★★★ Update: GW is bent on making an app subscription necessary to play this game and increased the subscription cost as well.
★★★★★ incredibly buggy with no update support for the bugs and inconsistencies
Bugs, things not working9%

26 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Some details for combat patrols are missing rules and the scoring function doesn't work properly in some games with desync from opponent issues.
★★★★★ then I realised list is to big and it would be easier and more honest to say that this app I just trash and there is more that doesn't work rather than does.
★★★★★ incredibly buggy with no update support for the bugs and inconsistencies
Wrong or poor results8%

24 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ It's not a problem to have codex updates or balance patches, except when they get added to the app WRONG!
★★★★★ The layout of the rules and over reliance on FAQs as a way to modify rules make the whole experience really low quality.
★★★★★ Not buying your stupid overpriced codexes or paying subscriptions just for rules, especially when the codexes will have any legit info be replaced and useless fast as heck.
Login and account problems4%

13 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Being prompted by the pay wall every time I log in when I already paid for my codex is extremely annoying too.
★★★★★ app crashes every time I try to log in.
★★★★★ Can't sign in here the citadel color or online either get nurgling in the system or just random error codes terrible mobile experience
No customer support3%

10 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Providing better rules to support factions without a codex is NECESSARY.
★★★★★ incredibly buggy with no update support for the bugs and inconsistencies
★★★★★ Issues include losing war journal history when deleting a current army, doesn't tell you how many of a weapon you have in the mode used to actually play, a steady stream of content bugs, zero support even though you…
WHAT THEY ASK FOR
  • Desperately need a change log & for the bugs to be ironed out. 2★, Oct 18, 2026
  • you need a warhammer+ subscription for that. 1★, Oct 17, 2026
  • Would be great if they'd actually detail what they updated in the app. 3★, Oct 15, 2026
  • with GW moving away from physical manuals this app needs a lot of work. 3★, Oct 15, 2026
  • it's a good and helpful app but it's starting to take alot of space it would be nice if they did like with killteam and let you download each army separately to save space 3★, Oct 15, 2026
  • The War Journal mode needs an auto update feature. 4★, Oct 11, 2026
  • It would be nice, for those with a propensity for competitive gaming to have a personal score based on win rates etc. 3★, Oct 5, 2026
  • 10th app was better should have made a new app for 11th. 1★, Sep 30, 2026

Easy to use10%

14 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ So useful to have every rule in one easy to use place!
★★★★★ I hate it, 5 stars, it makes it easy to play
★★★★★ A lot better all rules in one easy place, You do need Warhammer+ subscription to get the most out of the app.
Worth the money10%

14 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ yes the Warhammer+ subscription is needed but totally worth it, it just the best Warhammer app in the market.
★★★★★ I think making the list-builder a pay-to-use feature is acceptable, especially since free users can still build one list at a time.
★★★★★ I think its a good app, hate that GW keeps increasing their pricing, but you can use it to list your army for free but limited to one army.
Useful, it helps5%

7 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ So useful to have every rule in one easy to use place!
★★★★★ apps really helpful and regularly updates, can't complain given the uses it has outweighs the the cons.
★★★★★ I love warhammer and this helps me keep track of my army and how many points it is and it helps when im trying to play and I dont have time to count all my minis and add it up
Fast4%

6 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

★★★★★ They were quick to address my concerns in the app the only concern I have now is that the app doesn't really explain embarking rules as clearly as disembarking.
★★★★★ great for people wanting to count points for an army fast
★★★★★ Has there been issues, sure but they are very quick to fixing them.
Accurate, great results4%

5 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.

What users say

Latest reviews, United States Google Play.

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

A slow, unresponsive app with a poor layout and poor usability. That's the baseline. Then we enter the realm of paywalled rules, paywalled list slots (only 1 list without subscription). And THEN they decide the app is the only place where the full game rules are printed. And THEN they decide core rule updates in the app are not mentioned neither on their page nor in the app itself (no changelogs). A hilarious self-own, hope somebody with a better grasp on reality takes over soon. Avoid.

★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

Paywalled to play with price gouged plastic. No player plays with a single army, single list, forever. you build, you tweak, you have variations depending on who you're playing. Limiting you to 1 list without a subscription is nonsense. there are better alternatives. Poorhammer podcast just covered them. Fight the greed and refuse this garbage

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

I could write a long review but I won't bore you with something that can be said in a word or 2. scam, sucks, rip-off, con, scum, etc

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

Honestly mediocre. The app doesn't function as a list builder as you are limited to one list unless you subscribe, which wouldn't be bad if you could see all the rules. It doesn't, and even if you spend $40+ on the codex who's rules change the same day, you cannot make lists with that codex if you don't pay an increased cost on top of it. The app also doesn't alert you to changes in rules that massively change how the game is played, so enjoy the 1 star you money grubbing corpos.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

the paywalling is idiotic. GW doesn't seem to realize that an army list is a shopping list. they should let me make as many lists as I want, because then I'm more likely to buy the models on my list. Also paywalling the datasheets is stupid too. How am I supposed to be expected to know which models are worth buying if I don't know their currently updated stats? and attaching the paywall to the purchase of a physical book is like triple-stupid. GW execs, please Google the phrase "loss leader"

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

you need to buy the codex to see rules for your list just going to use a third party app
