User Reviews for RDR2: Companion

Serious recommendation:

I don't know anything about building apps but is there any way you could have some sorta "pause" feature so when we're not in immediate need of the app (mainly the map) we can hit a button and it will stop all usage of the app that is a battery drain? Like, for example, when i enter into a city, especially if i know it well - i'm not in need of the app and it's just sitting there draining my battery. Of course, i could close it out - but that's really annoying. Also, if this is possible, is there a way to do it without it having to basically reboot as if you closed it out completely and re-opened it? Or maybe opt OUT of certain aspects of the app that you aren't going to ever use - or at least not going to use in the immediate future; to further help with battery issues. Because i also check Facebook a lot when i play to talk with friends AND i stream via the MIXER app (both of them) so i've got a MAJOR drain on my battery as it is and this app (god - it's an AWESOME app a i really do mean that) is such a ABSOLUTELY ENORMOUS drain on my battery. Which is only going to increase two fold when online comes out and i need my companion app to track other players constantly since there is no passive mode in online mode - unless you are at your camp with the white flag up. Anyway, other than that this app is phenomenal. 🤙

Great for single player. Wish it was better for online

Everything is very useful, however I wish there was more online use other than map and catalogue. I would love to be able to follow my RDO character progress from my companion app (unless I’m missing something.) and to be able to check my awards and stats. I also would like to be able to preview my own character in the wardrobe selections. I know that’s a long shot since a catalogue in real life is usually a model wearing the clothes as it is now. But it would be really great if I were to be able to preview my current character outfit and change wardrobe options mobily. Maybe something similar to the Destiny app in 3D. Also I gave a 4 rating, however would really give it more of a 3.7 due to the fact that I just tried to make purchases for online and was given an error. Like I said. Great for SP, needs some TLC for online.

Login Issues

This app will simply not let me log into my account for the Red Dead Redemption 2 Social Club. I try logging in with my Xbox account and it just reverts it back to where I began: Not being signed in. I've heard this app is very useful but as of now I have seen nothing to prove that.Edit: Found out it's most likely because my iPhone is on iOS 15.5 and this is only updated to iOS 14. Please fix this Rockstar and quit focusing so much on GTA. I get it, it's more popular than RDR2 and that's simply because of the more modern aspect of it. Still, there are players out there such as myself who like playing RDR2 and sometimes find things like this that y'all can't seem to get up and fix it. Yet somehow you have all the time in the world to spend years on all these new GTA games. I don't understand y'all. Another quick question for you guys and girls at Rockstar. How is it that GTA gets SIX GAMES (at the time I'm writing this review) and RDR only gets TWO?! How come?

Needs fixing ASAP

I couldn't really tell you how good or not the app itself is because after the setup period I put the phone down for about 5-10 minutes to walk the dog and came back and picked it up and it was so hot I thought there was a short or something in the cord but no I used a IR thermometer and it said 118 degrees. The IR thermometer I used is a cheapo unit admittedly but still this is not something I'd expect from a tier 1 company like Rockstar or any contractors it uses. I powered the phone down and put a small fan on to help coo it and tried it one more time to verify and it did it again so it's been deleted until it's fixed. The premise of what the app offers got me interested but until it fixes this safety issue ( and it IS a safety issue..what if it was carried in a pocket or purse with a lighter in it and the app was left on or was accidentally turned on and the heat generated could potentially set off the lighter) so let's get it fixed Rockstar!

This app no longer works...

I got the south a few weeks ago, gave it a try, had trouble getting an account. When I finally got it to work, it worked for one day, and then it stopped working. I contacted Support, and Support put me through over an hour's worth of tests to figure out why it wasn’t working. Finally, they wanted me to change my DNS. I can’t do that because of the circumstances at home where I have to have a secure line. The support person couldn’t understand why I couldn’t just change the DNS. Needless to say, the app is now worthless. I have rebooted my cable modem, rebooted my Wi-Fi, rebooted my computer, rebooted my iPhone, rebooted my PlayStation 4, Nothing has cleared the problem. It’s unfortunate because this app was awesome in the one day that I had it. I could put it on a cinematic run and have my player run from point A to point B and watch it on the app. Leave me the app to freaking confusing to set up. Once set up, it’ll work for a short time and then stop. I don’t know if it’s the update from the PS4 or if the app was updated, but something happened to where it doesn’t work right now.

Expected more

For $10, I expected more. Don’t get me wrong; the map on my phone synching with the game is nice and all, but much of the rest is more difficult to use. For example, I can barely read much of the print, even on an iPhone 8+. Yes, I can expand the page, but then the left and right edges of the paragraphs fall off the page. You should be able to push a side icon and get the text for a feature or description printed out on your phone in regular font (sort of like how you can “read” a letter in game). Also, the game guide is very, very lengthy (351 pages that look like they have been converted to a .pdf file with two pages on one screen). I would have expected either (1) the index to be linked to the appropriate place in the guide; or (2) the ability to select what page to jump to in the guide (less efficient but workable). I would also expect there to be a usable search feature for the guide.Disappointed in this offering.

The best companion app I’ve ever used, but it could be better.

First things first, I can’t explain how awesome it is to remove the majority of your HUD in game and then use this app as your map. It’s really convenient and user friendly. A couple things, I believe they forgot to carry over colorblind mode from the base game, and this greatly hinders me and I’d like to have that as an a option for the app. Another thing is the digital strategy guide is available and I think that’s really neat, especially since it’s 1/4 the price of an actual copy, but I want the strategy guide to carry over the the actual map. Let me run around and view where things like cigarette cards, or dinosaur bones are on my map. I think it’d be way better than having to back out of the map and open the strategy guide and flip to the page. Overall I love this app, I just would like to see colorblind mode added and maybe the strategy guide spread out a little more.

Misleading - iPhone X Incompatible

Just got finished chatting with Rockstar support after repeatedly not being able to connect my game to the app. I did everything right and triple checked it all. Their support team thought it was odd at first, then came back and told me my iPhone X wasn’t compatible with the app. They said the only reason the App Store lists the app as compatible with iPhone X is because the app will run on my device, just not connect to my game which is the entire point of the app. While I look forward to a compatibility update which Rockstar said was in the works but no release date in sight, for now I find this app grossly misleading. I agreed to terms and conditions when I downloaded the app and now they're telling me it doesn’t even work on my device. Why even list it if it’s completely useless? My guess is to lure more iPhone users into downloading and hopefully purchasing the game-guide, which is $9.99. Lazy. I’d be willing to re-rate the app once it works, and how long iPhone X users have to wait will impact that new rating as well.

Nice Addition

I rarely use companion apps for games as they seem pointless and don't really help much towards the actual game themselves. However I have found that this one is an acceptation. I turned off the hud in game so it makes it very immersive so much that while playing had several people look at the screen and ask what I was watching and mouths drop when I said I was playing a game. Having this app opened while playing helped a GREAT deal with that as I am able to view map, make way points, view all of my statuses and follow everything in realtime with ease flawlesslyand it feels like I am Arthur himself simple opening the map to view my surroundings, journal or what have you. I find this to be one of the top additions to game and really makes it stand out as the best and greatest game I've played in a long time. Plus it's 100% FREE. Rockstar did a top notch on this game and made it even better with this companion app. If you plan on playing this game this app is a recommended must to get way more out of it and it's experience.

Please Fix Battery Bug

This app is exactly what I want in a companion app, and Rockstar definitely nailed it for sure. This rating would absolutely be 5 stars if it wasn’t for the current battery draining glitch impacting some users. I have an iPhone X and a USB-C to Lightning fast charger, which normally charges my phone from >5% to 100% in less than an hour. When I use the companion, not only does my phone become too hot to touch, it also drains battery at a rapid pace. I was at ~50% battery when I began using the app most recently, and after 45 minutes of use, my battery had dropped down to 7% (while on the fast charger!). Rockstar: I don’t leave reviews unless I really need to share critical feedback as a consumer for the greater good, but this needs a resolution, and a fast one. I don’t think using this app is a good idea until the issues are addressed. I would gladly change my rating to 5 once addressed, but until then, it’s back to using the in-game map every 2 minutes ☹️Everyone else: Don’t let my review turn you off from the app, I honestly love it and would be using it every time I play, but it’s tearing up my battery and it’s unable to be touched when operational. Give it a try and see if it works fine for you, but if not, I would really give this another shot once it’s fixed. It’s worth it!!
