User Reviews

Reviewers praise First Player for being simple, reliable, and fun for small groups, turning a starter decision into a light mini-game. It’s easy to use and works well for five players or fewer, and it’s free. However, the top gripe is a hard limit of five players, with several reports that upgrading to a paid version does not remove this cap. A minority note iOS 13 gesture quirks and a desire for more visual customization. Overall, great for quick, small-group use but not for larger groups.

Pros

Simple, focused tool that reliably does one thing and in a fun way.
Turns picking the starting player into a small, enjoyable mini-game.
Easy to use and straightforward.
Free to use and lightweight.

Cons

Limit of 5 players (hard cap), which many reviews cite as a major drawback.
Paid upgrades reportedly do not remove the 5-player limit or add players.
Bug on iOS 13 where three-finger touch can trigger cut/copy/paste.
Lacks customization options and richer visuals/sounds compared to some alternatives.
