User Reviews

Launch Bay Next is praised for its collection feature, UI, and squad-building tools, with active dev support. However, recurring stability, content, and data-management issues—crashes after updates, missing ships/pilots, faulty filtering, and points problems—limit reliability.

Pros

Collection feature is valuable and handy
Intuitive, aesthetically pleasing UI/UX and layout
Robust squad-building tools (calculator, notes, tournament options)
Active developer responsiveness and timely bug fixes

Cons

Stability and crashes after updates; app can become unreliable or require restarts
Content gaps: missing ships/pilots and incomplete card data / not all content available
Filtering issues: filters do not narrow results and some filters are misapplied (e.g., items showing up where they shouldn't)
Points calculations inconsistencies: totals miscalculate or XWA points not loading correctly
Data loss or login/backups problems after updates: collection erased or login/reset requirements

Recent reviews

The core concept is there, and I like the collection feature, but compared to even mobile YASB, this has entirely too many issues to be worth using. Adding a pilot will occasionally fail and just do nothing, and other times it won’t allow you to select a ship. When adding a pilot it may appear invisible or become unselectable until you restart the app. Once you’re editing the loadout for a pilot, the upgrade slots will: grey out and become uninteractable, move around randomly, disappear, or just fail to work. The filters for some modifications is incorrect, Precision Ion Engines and Stealth Device shows up for every ship. Recently half of the upgrades have lost images that show the card art and full card. Points will randomly miscalculate, adding loadout values to the total point cost on XWA managed lists. There are definitely more issues, as those are just the few I managed to think of off the top of my head, but my point stands. Most of these issues require an app restart to fix and make continuous use almost impossible.

I got the app after the XWA update and 2.0 Legacy is missing some features, these features are mainly Weapons Hardpoint for T-70 not actually adding the slots and the same issue for Wartime Loadout for the BTA-NR2 Y-Wing.
