Isaac Argueta		 Works for the game. Doesn't crash or have bugs. Simple and effective.

Twinstar Tiger		 Should include a simple toggle to disable mastermind mode/cases. Would surely come in handy if they release expansions much like how mansions, descent and others do with their apps. So you only see content you have, especially non-kickstarter content. :)

Yancey		 App works as expected, but why wasn't this just another mode in the 5MD app? It's silly that I need to have two apps that are functionally the same.

RJ Clarke		 They fixed the Pixel 4 issue, so it's working great now! The game is fun, and the app definitely makes it an even better experience.

Ben Cox		 The game is a lot of fun, perfect family game! However, there is an issue with the timer. We enjoy the app and love that the walrus tells his story. But once the timer is set and the case is solved (or unsolved) there is NO way to get back to select a new case. We have to close out the app and reopen it to select a new case. I have an android. Please fix! EDIT: OK, there IS a way to go back, but it's not super intuitive. Hit the refresh button, then click on the case name. Then select new case

Chris Frady		 The app crashes immediately when opened on Pixel 4 with Android 11. Edit: The Android 11 issue has been fixed and the app works exactly as you'd expect now.

Chad Kittel		 Thanks. Love using this with 5-minute mystery. Totally optional, but a nice companion! (Thanks for getting the app to work on Android 11!)

Kennedy Laufman		 Won't open on Pixel 4 running Android 11; the dungeon timer works great, but this one doesn't work at all for me. Edit: Following the update, the app seems to be working perfectly now. Thank you for following up with the issues!
