## Review summary

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
