## Review summary

Board Games Companion is a visually polished app that excels at logging games, tracking wins/losses, and planning game nights. It integrates with BGG for collections and wishlist and surfaces expansions. However, user feedback highlights inconsistent BGG syncing and several bugs that can disrupt roster updates and general logging.

### Pros

- Easy to log games and track wins/losses for each player, including cooperative and competitive play.
- Keeps track of the number of plays and who won, helping groups stay honest and organized.
- Beautiful, polished design with a user-friendly mobile interface.
- Syncs with Board Game Geek (BGG) data, allowing you to view your collection and wishlist in-app.
- Shows expansions and promo cards for each game, so you know what you own.

### Cons

- BGG sync is unreliable or limited (often one-way or not fully syncing), causing frustration.
- Multiple minor bugs that affect roster updates and general logging, leading to occasional glitches.
