Hi all!

I am excited to announce that my RetroAchievements companion app, RA Tracker, has officially launched on the iOS App Store!

Version 1 has many capabilities, all designed around maximizing the RetroAchievements experience and feeling right at home on your iOS Device.

  • View your completion progress for all games you are earning achievements for
  • View awards for mastering a game
  • View all of your recently earned achievements
  • See users that have earned specific achievements
  • View the Achievement of the Week and get a notification when a new one is posted!
  • View the top ten user leaderboard
  • Add games to the Backlog to keep track of what you want to play
  • Search for games by console to see what games currently have Achievements to earn
  • Create a list of games to track completion progress
  • Follow other RetroAchievements.org users and track their progress and recently earned achievements

I would absolutely LOVE to hear feedback from the community.

Once the final API endpoints get enabled, I will start work on the v2 update which will have much more information for users.

If you don't know what RetroAchievements is, now is a great time to check it out!

It would be nice to be able to see what achievements I’ve already unlocked when checking my progress for a game

I like seeing the extra stats on an achievement when selecting it, but it would be better if we could see the achievement description without having to select each achievement individually. I think the browsing has a lot of potential, but just needs some tweaks to keep me from looking through games on RA itself!

Looks like an endpoint that will enable both of these features has been turned on. Working on the feature now!

Glad to hear it! I’ll be on the lookout for updates! Thanks for listening!

I think this looks really good actually. Thanks for the idea!

That’s much easier to browse the lists!
