User Reviews
The description suggests that you can use your phone to duplicate Amiibo’s without actually needing the physical Amiibo, but that’s not the case. Even after unlocking the app and loading all of the Amiibo.files I’m still unable to replicate an Amiibo using my phone. DO NOT BUY!! Want refund!
Had this app for a few years, great way to track my library I will admit. But recently I saw the free version was not only removed from the AppStore but also from my purchase history?? Very anti-consumer if I do say so myself and I advice others to steer clear since we have no clue if this version will stay up or get replaced by an even more expensive version.
Stay far away, haven’t been able to update the app in months. Some Kirby Riders and Metroid 4 Support would be great. How long are we gonna have to wait?
Works well if you just want to make older amiibos, but hasn’t been updated with new amiibos in almost 2 years.
Ally makes it easy to save my amiibos! My pets have gotten to a few amiibos in the past so I got this to back mine up
Original Review: Have used the app a bunch in the past without issue, but it seems something has broken recently (I think with iOS 18+, probably an NFC API change) and now when attempting to write a tag, my iPhone activates Apple Pay / Wallet and I cannot write tags anymore. Otherwise app has worked great. Update: Developer responded and indicated that it shouldn't be happening and to reach out to support for additional assistance. I do believe something must have changed with my use case attempting to write to a Flipper Zero, and it was probably an update to that device that broke the previously functioning behavior, and not the app or iOS. The app works as intended for other use cases and the issue I experienced is not related to the app itself.
Newly released Amiibos are no longer supported and the developers are not updating this app - prove me wrong. Efforts are focused on the Pro version instead. But they are still selling this version as-is for uninformed buyers.. smh.
Unfortunately could not get it to work but the competing products did without issues. Major let down, buyer beware!
I do really enjoy this App! There’s a lot of small slice of life features like functionality with other games and there release. I like that it’s easily organizable and scanning in my Amiibo took me a second to figure out but once I did it was cool 😎 I will say the one thing I’d really like if they added was some way to enter my boxed amiibos as well. I get this app is to save your Amiibo on your phone and all that fun stuff but I use this more as a see what I have in my collection kinda thing. It be nice to just press a button and it say “these are the ones you have in box” and when you try using your phone as a Amiibo it just won’t work, I’d be fine with that. But good app.
My mistake, but, there are 2 versions of this with only $5 difference. I was not aware of this and was wondering where is the option to connect my flask. There isn’t one, it’s only available in pro version. Also there isn’t any option to upgrade to pro, so now if I want ability to connect to my flask, this will cost me $25. I found online where people said it cost $5 so when I saw $10 i though it was one with flask. Nope. My mistake for not paying attention to pro in otherwise exactly the same name. Having this for sale is just design for money grab! Oh, you can’t upgrade, but you sure can export your data to pro once you buy it again.
