RDR2: Companion Customer Service

RDR2: Companion Positive Reviews

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. 🤙.ElBridgeChevY1995Version: 1.1

Great for single player. Wish it was better for onlineEverything 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..ElonzaeVersion: 1.2

Please Fix Battery BugThis 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!!.Tommy.DiPietroVersion: 1.01

Nice AdditionI 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..ThatmanuthinkuknowVersion: 1.01

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..Puddingmaster91Version: 1.01

Login IssuesThis 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?.Flavuh_Version: 1.5.1

Good but not greatThis app seems to miss the purpose of what it is. First and foremost it is a map/guide, but even that interface is a bit weird to get used to. Map view defaults to all the way zoomed in which is almost never used. The app itself also drains my battery pretty decently and am stuck plugging my phone in after a few hours of usage. I’m also not a huge fan of the “shopping” aspect. You get booted out of the app and to a webpage to do shopping but where the items go I really don’t know. Would have been interesting if you look at the catalogue that sits on a stump or a table, depending on where your camp is located. And those items ordered would be delivered to the camp. Progress option does the same no to an external website. I hope this app will be utilized for the online game when the becomes available..NwelloVersion: 1.01

Needs fixing ASAPI 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!.Good Ol' PopsVersion: 1.01

Perfect holiday companionI didn’t have to give up my RDR2 addiction while visiting family for Thanksgiving. It’s really nice to catch up on Arthur’s thoughts from his journal while laying in a hotel bed. I’m less inclined to read that stuff while I’m actually playing the game, but it’s really quite fun to read and reflect on some of the things I’ve done now that I’m away from it. I also have to say I think it is very cool that you can flip through the ordering magazine to get things you will receive when you log into the game. My only recommendation is that you stock up on money before you travel or likely you’ll be stuck with only 2$ to play with like me LOL. Lastly, it’s great to help brush upon mechanics. I’m even considering the strategy guide. Anyhow, just wanted to express my enjoyment of the app..LikeflintVersion: 1.01

The Map is amazing....but the app lacks in other areasLove the concept for this app, the map is so well done!! I definitely plan to use this app regularly while playing the game. I think where this app is struggling is in all the other sections. I absolutely can’t stand that the app takes you to safari Instead of the other features being native on the app! Like the map is. Also the fact that you have the ability to purchase that aren’t unlocked for you yet! Is very weird and I don’t like that part at all. The app has great bones and the map is AMAZING, you guys at rockstar just need to bring native support to all of the other features this app has to offer, which I would totally use as well, if it was native and didn’t take me to safari..Sparkster1998Version: 1.1

Best companion app for console games I’ve used, but needs locale supportIt’s been an fantastic experience with this app. I can pin point any point on the map and the game sync instantly to show me route guidance on the minimap. However this app really needs locale support. I’m running the game on different language than my iPad does. The app won’t show me the map unless I change my iPad system language to match with the game language. It’s quite frustrating since I don’t want to change the iPad language every time I start playing and change it back afterwards. The app needs to have a setting where it allows users to change the app language. It’s a really great app overall but just needs this small but useful improvement.IAlanXVersion: 1.01

Couple flawsLike others have pointed out. I never received a reset password email from rockstar. Tried multiple times and checked junk mail. Nothing. I ended creating a new social club account. Bummer. Overall the app is pretty solid the landscape only option is super bad. Instead of making device specific ports of the game manual and strategy guide, rockstar merely uploaded a pdf or fixed size version of these documents. You can’t increase font size or rotate. The text is unbelievably small and just as you start to zoom into one of the game’s manual page, the reader turns you to the following or previous page. I honestly wouldn’t mind and can understand why rockstar has landscape only for features like the real time map. However the manuals should be allowed in any orientation. No excuses..TLehman111Version: 1.01

Great app needs a few fix’sI like almost everything about the companion app but I wanted to make a complete immersive experience for people on my channel and when I have the app open it doesn’t show the amount of cash I earned from a job or what I loot unless I remember what I had before or valuables and I even think certain unique items you pick up and it doesn’t show it on my TV unless I turn on the option that shows what I picked up so I have to go in my satchel everytime I pick up anything. If some how you could improve it so on the companion app it shows what I pick up. I would be very grateful! Thanks in advance for all the hard work!.DeadlyfurryVersion: 1.01

-RockstarGamesGuyThis is exactly what a companion app should be! Not only does it connect instantly to your console but it lets you alter the way point, I’ve used the cinematic mode to automatically go to my next destination but used the app to change which way I’m going without having to even touch my controller which is so helpful, I already own the collectors box that has the replica store catalog and the collectors edition guide book so I do not have to use those features, my only wish is that social club and everything else would stay in the app and not take you to safari, iFruit use to be this way but it was changed to the same way..RockstarGamesGuyVersion: 1.01

HelpfulThis app is the best companion app I’ve been for a game by far. The interactive map is a great feature and helpful to use if you don’t want to constantly be opening it in game. The best feature of the app IMO is the strategy guide for only 10 bucks (half the price of the physical version) you get the same content 300+ pgs of detailed helpful info! Only small issue is the app disconnecting from my game when it’s closed is a little annoying and sometimes(rarely) it glitches and freezes and locks my phone to the point i have to reboot my phone. If these issues were addressed this would be 100%!.YungdeedsVersion: 1.01

An Amazing feature!First, wow who thought of this app it was truly a brilliant Idea that no other game that I know of has implemented yet. The only thing I can compare this to, is the Ubisoft games that I’ve played in the past. I remember a few Assassin Creed games where you could give orders to run a side mission in a mini game while you’re on the toilet at work. It gives you some extra in game cash if you’re dedicated and stuff. The RDR 2 companion lets you open sales book and purchase items, you can view your journal missions and even view in game progress without even pausing the game! When the game first launched I turned off the in game mini map and just used my iPad for the map! Single Player was a blast! Multiplayer is enhanced because you can see what’s going on past your field of view with the app. On days where they have the limited sales, in the clothing store, if you can’t get on your Xbox, you can just open the app and purchase clothes for online!.BladeDaRazorVersion: 1.3

Battery usage for the otherOk so I’ve seen other reviews on this app saying it needs improvement in the battery usage part of the app but here’s the thing all you need to do is press the home button and open the app when you wanna use it because it disconnects when your not in the app the app can be, being used in the background but it won’t connect. And if your not a five or six your old you’ll just plug your phone in. And personally I started playing rockstars games like gta 5 when I was seven and finished it in less then a year so I think I know how there games work..Tarin ValleVersion: 1.1

Excellent!!This app is perfect! It makes it being able to look at everything you’ve completed in the compendium so much easier because it’s right in your hand it takes so much less time. Also being able to swipe through the journal and reading what Arthur writes without pulling up the the journal in the actual game is amazing!! The only addition that I would like to be added is a way to look at all he photos you’ve taken because it would make it much easier to delete photos you don’t like and post to the social club. 10/10 (add a photos section that would be amazing).Shiz N WizzVersion: 1.01

I love the game rdr2!!!! ❤️Rdr2 is the best. I love it and it is awesome. I have a question how do you get the war horse? Also are you Rock Star Games making a 3rd one?? My best friend also said that that was come the 3rd one... if there is then please tell me I would love that. Anyway I have seen all the horses but not the animals. What I hate about rdr2 is that Hosea Matthews and Arthur Morgan dies! Any way I love the graphics it is awesome. The first time I saw this was in a restaurant. And I was like to my dad. “Hey dad look it is a horse game.” And he said,”Yeah. It is called Red dead redemption 2.” Any way that is how I got in love with rdr2! I am get off. Bye 👋.Adison SmartVersion: 1.3

Really neat, sometimes fails to find consoleReally neat idea and enhances the game somewhat. I usually keep the map up while I play and use it to navigate and decide where to go next. The app is high quality and stable. However, it sometimes takes a long time, like 10 minutes or more, to identify that I have an active session running. I have to keep hitting refresh occasionally and eventually my console shows up. I don’t change what I’m doing to trigger this, I’m just playing the game and it randomly decides to start working. Still, overall the app is excellent..Jmason86Version: 1.1

Mind Blowing.I’m not going to make a full on 5 paragraph review like usual, but instead going to say how cool this app is. It gives you all the info on how your doing, and what’s going on but in one way that’ll change all gaming apps. Through a western style magazine/map/book/guide/everything! Still, Rockstar, you’ve made the most mind blowing, outstanding, most beautiful and exiting game I’ve ever played, but I still feel even the mobile apps took 8 years of work! you should still keep in touch with your mobile companions. PS. Have you seen Gavin anywhere?.RigyogyVersion: 1.1

Issues with photos on Social Club.Hi, I purchased and played RDR2 and have loved it so far, using the camera to take photos of the beautiful landscape, once I learned of the app I happily downloaded it, hoping I could save my photos from the Social Club. When I logged in, an alert told me I was not allowed to even view the photos since they were from RDR2, saying I was too young to even VIEW the photos I had taken myself (4 of them were from the Gunslinger mission), which as I said before, are mostly landscape and nature. I hope Rockstar removes the restriction on photos. Other than that, the app works great. If it weren’t for the age restriction I would rate it 5 stars..:.Valerius.:Version: 1.5

Great, but the guide needs indexThe map is awesome, and purchasing items is cool. The main glaring problem is the guide makes you have to navigate page by page to find anything. This is completely unacceptable and I’m surprised nobody thought about this. Considering it costs 9.99 for the guide, this is very substandard and not what I would usually expect from Rockstar. People should be able to at the very least, click the chapter names on the right to go to that section and probably even enter a page number to jump there. Fix this immediately! I recommend that people wait until fixed before they pay for the guide..ILovePuppies51Version: 1.01

It’s okayThe app doesn’t really give you much toe rom with most of the things send you to your online browser if I wanted to I could just use my browser to use this service I expected a Loadouts option or maybe special gear you can receive for using the app maybe something about setting up your horse or something if you’re not home and about to hope on with friends to be ready. Give me more capability for online R star & not so much leaving the app. Other than that I can appreciate it for what it’s trying to almost be..DGuyBHindUVersion: 1.1

A Perfect GuideI was skeptical about the app when I first saw it, but I really like it. It’s easy to set up a new way point on the fly, track where you are compared to your destination, and while in cinematic mode going to my destination I love reading new journal entries I’ve acquired along the way. My only, very very minor, gripe is the battery consumption. It drains it very quickly but I typically have my phone plugged in while playing so it’s not a big deal. A definite download if you’re planning multiple play through like I am..GrifzergVersion: 1.1

Un able to use map featureApp is ok i for some reason cant use the map feature it lets me use the other options but when i go to the map it says content to RDR2 when on the game and that my xbox is disconnected but ive tried every thing i can think of from uninstalling to unlinking the account and still has not allowed me to be able to use the map feature of the app which was the main reason i got it as the in game map only zooms in so far and i thought it would be nice to be able to have the map in hand so i could set my points easier but im at a lose on it.Darklotus1980Version: 1.01

Nice companion app to RDR2, could have more to interact with.This is app, for what it is trying to do, succeeds in all aspects. It’s informative, user friendly, and makes playing the game overall a better experience. The problem is I only find myself using it in rare cases. The main problem for me is that all of the information is already in the game in the menu screen. I would give this app a 5/5 if it maybe gave some lore or mini-games to play. Would also like if you could link up the in game mail system to the app..EbradlowVersion: 1.5

Great features but one complaintI love the features this app has and that I can use this to see my map when I’m trying to go somewhere without a waypoint. I also like them at I can look through the journal if I’m bored and can’t play Xbox, and it’s just generally fun to use. The one thing I don’t like about the app is that it’s stuck in landscape view. I wish it was in landscape for the map but portrait when you’re in the main menu. That’s the only thing I wish they had because otherwise it’s really helpful..KingthejamVersion: 1.01

Pretty happy with the app, just a few minor complaintsI purchased the strategy guide for $9.99 and use it also as a companion app and I’m pretty happy with it as it is very easy to use and links seamlessly with my rockstar account while I play. This review is mostly about the strategy guid that I purchased which is completely optional to which as far as I know, the rest of the app is free. Pros: The app and the strategy guide was very well made and the layout with the table of contents tab is very useful and easy to use/navigate. It is also an official guide and is very comprehensive. Con(s): It can only be used in landscape mode and not support portrait so I find myself trying to rotate my device(s) to get it to move out of habit to no avail. Ill be back to update my review periodically if the need to arises. Would really give it 4.5 stars if I could because of that one issue..Stress inducedVersion: 1.1

Convenient yet not...The map is great, and as others have said, it’s convenient that you get to look at the catalog on the app and plan on what you need to save up for. However, almost every single thing you click on takes you out of the app and into safari. It just feels kinda clunky being taken into safari for every little thing because your view is limited (it kicks you in landscape mode). It would just be much more convenient if you could do everything in-app..Metalz69Version: 1.01

95% works great...map doesn’tThe app is pretty cool. Nice to see the smart glass function still being used as it’s a awesome feature that has dwindled away slightly. I feel like a lot more games could use this feature but devs aren’t worried about investing into small extras like this. Only issue is I can get the map to pull sync with my Xbox. Can pull up everything else just the map doesn’t show and I always have the red status indicator even tho the other tabs work. Great app, great potential, don’t give up on it and try to fix the few small bugs here and there..CHIEFHUSKERVersion: 1.1

Won’t connect to PS5I know I’ve had my issues in the past with RockStar, but that has all been resolved. Kinda. I had an issue where my account was not displaying accurate information. NOW, when I go into the RDR2 Companion it’s says I’m linked to my old PS4. I read the troubleshooting info and still can’t figure it out. My theory is because it is still a PS4 game? Anyways. Could you fix this or explain to me what I’m doing wrong? Other than that, the app is great!.Holly CostVersion: 1.5.1

Best in the WestHands down one of the best at what it was designed for. I often wish that most game companies did this sort of thing, bc it does help. RDR2 is a gem, a real master piece and we all know this. Rockstar are truly an interesting group of people. Thank you for the game, thank you for this app. I never stop playing RDR2 bc of this app, I’ve recently started on my 2nd run. I miss Arthur and the gang, and I’m glad that the app has improved even more so. Once again thank you! Rockstars!.WebbyhandsVersion: 1.5

Good, just a couple things to improveI really like this companion app. The real time map and ability to set waypoints is fantastic. Cool that you can access the catalogue and purchase things. Only problems I really have with it are that 1) it absolutely melts my battery and 2) the forced landscape mode is less than ideal. Beyond that I think it’s a great app. I do wish there was better stat tracking, but I think that’s an issue with the game and not offering the ridiculous amounts of stats that GTA and RDR have offered in the past..JayG1989Version: 1.01

RDR2: Companion Negative Reviews

Scandalous & Embarrassing!I never write reviews. But finally got back into gaming. This app looked and is set up beautifully.. linked my Xbox accounts just to find out I can’t use the MAP! Why? Then I learn it’s been broken for a long time? Why develop an app and put this much effort into to it.. just so no one can get any use out of it? I will delete it now. But this is shameless and should be fixed looked like it had so much potential. First I get the new Xbox and gta 5 just for them to release the updated version a week later and would have preferred to pay and play that one. I guess everything everyone is saying about rockstar changing is true. I don’t really have much faith in GTA6 either. The characters will probably be like the insufferable people we encounter on the daily in real life and not love able like the old games. Afraid the gameplay and story will be watered down as well due to the climate of the world and the things we loved about gta will be long gone. They need to have Trevor in the new one some how and Theo Von on a radio station if they truly wanna nail and be relevant to their actual supporters since the beginning..Eatmoon13Version: 1.5.1

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..HafnerDesignsVersion: 1.5

Misleading - iPhone X IncompatibleJust 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..SeanzarellaVersion: 1.01

Expected moreFor $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..MrSpkrVersion: 1.1

Like the full game, the app disappointsForced landscape, tiniest-of-the-tiny text that can’t be enlarged, and vampiricly efficient loss of battery while (trying to) use this. Perhaps Rockstar thought that much would be forgiven with this offering due to brand recognition and/or respect. But like the full game, it’s a trudge through molasses with a shiny veneer and lofty goals only half-heartedly implemented. Rockstar seems to be a company where the Hausers and Lazlow can not be challenged. How much feedback was either ignored or stifled? Feedback that could have improved this and the game? There’s too many people at TT for NO ONE to have seen the mess coming. But it seems they weren’t heard. Or maybe they know better than to speak up at all? I fear for GTA and what “brilliant” ideas that franchise has in dev by now. Hope they can get back to making good games, these “reinventing the wheel using squares” isn’t going to pay off in the long-term..BrothersInArtzVersion: 1.01

Great app overall. But has one annoying major drawback for me.This annoying draw back is so majorly annoying I’m giving it a 1 star. Ok so you log into app with your Rockstar social club account. Easy to do. Then when you have the app open while playing. The little colored icon next to the cowboy outline in top right area changes color for gameplay connection status. from green: active connection Yellow: on standby. Then Red: not connected. Then while playing game. I get a notice on my TV. ‘Your Red Dead Redemptions 2 companion app has disconnected from your gameplay. While your actively playing. This is annoying. Then it gets worse. I go to the app on iPhone and make it reconnect to my gameplay. Over and over. Then to make it worse. I save my gameplay. Then the next time i play again on my Xbox. I load up the companion app. Then I let it fully boot up. And I’ll load up the game on my Xbox 1x and the app won’t connect to my gameplay again. Unless I restart a whole new game slot. And restart the story. Then the companion app will connect to my game. But then it won’t stay connected. And yes I’m using WIFI on my phone, an yes the signal is good and very strong. Other then that when this app does work. It’s very easy to navigate throughout the app. It just won’t connect and stay connected to my gameplay..LegitpeytonVersion: 1.5

2022 Honest ReviewHonestly Rockstar you gotta step your game up, the app literally doesn’t open at all from the time i downloaded it and i’m on the news iOS software , there’s no good working social club app for social , stat tracking , nothing for Red Dead Online which i may be wrong but i’m sure most everyone would rather have a “companion” app for Online instead one RDR2. PLEASE just make an updated social club app that either focuses on RDO or both the GTA AND RDR2/RDO Game series together . i play gta on steam on pc and can track my progress through steam but i bought Red Dead 2 through the rockstar games launcher and there’s literally no way to check my play time or any other stats from my phone much less my pc. idk i love all rockstar games but y’all lack in the application department for now in MY opinion alone ..EthanmgoodsonVersion: 1.5.1

Not thought through at allFirst off I am not one to write reviews let alone negative ones but I this motivated me. Two major issues are as follows, you must have an online account for multiplayer games (at least with xbox) to use this app even though this is a single player game. I would have thought this would link to my Xbox via Bluetooth like other apps I use. I am not an online player. Second is the game guide which I Love to use and read again not well thought through as it is unreadable on my iPad. In this day and age of multipurpose readers available one would think they would have at minimum made it so you could read one page at a time or incorporated some form of page management that made it readable. I would Love to use this APP and would pay for it if it worked!.FishmangoogoogjoobVersion: 1.01

Perfect for story mode but no map onlineUPDATE: Disabling the map has essentially made this almost USELESS! If you are still on iOS 12 or 13, DO NOT update to 14 if you want this to work . This companion app is great if you do story mode. Be sure to link your account properly or you’ll have repeat login issues. If the map feature were allowed again in online mode this app would be 100% perfect for console users but this single feature having been removed makes this app ENTIRELY USELESS for online use. So don’t bother with this app unless you do story mode. This single lack of feature forces me to rate 2 stars. PC users have no chance of using this yet which is pretty bad after several months since the PC rollout..BaldJoe00Version: 1.5.1

Not a companion app. More like a compilation of links.For most companion apps, the information is contained within the app. The maps, tips, catalogs, and whatever else populate in the app when you select them. With this app, you are re-directed to a website that automatically opens in safari. Not a huge deal for most, but there is no point to having the app when you could just as easily google what you want and be directed that way. Map is great! Would love to see that be a little more developed. All in all, the app is essentially useless unless you are using it for the $10 guide. I would absolutely re-download once all the info is contained in the app rather than opening things in safari..Wsu602Version: 1.01

Maps do not work even when doing exactly what is suggestedPart of the reason for downloading this is that it says it’s a companion app, yet it’s basically just another thing to take up space on the phone. The information shown online via the official page says you can do all this wonderful stuff such as set waypoints, pan and zoom the map on your phone yet it does none of this because it won’t even connect. I have no problem connecting and running my phone as a keyboard to type messages to friends and such via the second screen app from ps. So this just doesn’t make sense as to why it does not connect and work as specified..Alc1980Version: 1.5.1

LacklusterCompanion apps are made to enhance the playing experience, and immerse you farther into the story. The only thing I found useful on this app however is the map. And I’ve only opened the map a handful of times. The other information it displays while your not playing is inaccurate (as far as challenges and other statistics.) All of the links such as catalogue, and progress, simply hyperlink you to a webpage.... The webpages are sluggish, and hard to navigate on a mobile device. What’s the point on a companion app.... when all it does is redirect you OUT of the app? It would be better if it was all inclusive, and didn’t always need to be connected to the console for accurate information. Many other companion apps outshine this one by far. On a side note.....I don’t particularly enjoy having to make a separate account just to “use” it. Let us sign in through our console provider. It’s way more simplified. (Also it’s not compatible with my iPad?? I know it’s an older iPad, but still...?) Great idea! But I can’t see myself using it much :(.KkomaromyVersion: 1.01

Don’t botherThis app doesn’t actually help you all that much in game, and of course the only useful thing on the app is the strategy guide, blocked behind yet another of Rockstars infamous paywalls. RDR2 is a Genuinely good game which is why its so tragic when Rockstar can’t keep it together long enough to put out an actually useful phone app, just like the dinosaur from GTA V. It’s even more sad that they very clearly only care about making money on the online versions of their games, and that they don’t even bother releasing games anymore. It’s sad to see how the mighty have fallen. Remember when they could pump out more than one game every 5 years? Those were the days..TracefordVersion: 1.5.1

Don’t buy Red Dead Redemption 2The game has wonderful graphics, but that’s about it. The mechanics don’t work very well and a lot of people have trouble being inside a Red Dead Online session. I believe the only way Rockstar becomes less incompetent and greedy is to send them a message. Rockstar created a online game that you pay 60 dollars that you might be able to play online with no friend only sessions, so it’s incredibly hard to work for xp without being killed by trolls. I suggest that they put satisfaction for their players at top priority instead of money. This is most likely the reason they created a store before I can play Red Dead Online with my friends for more than a couple seconds..Victor KeenVersion: 1.1

Gone downhill & Stopped pairing with game!This app was originally quite good, but with the online updates and patches, my app no longer pairs with my game (PS4, don’t bother trying the PS5) I’ve changed nothing, same sign in and same console...but no pairing. It says I’m signed in, but it no longer detects my game! This means I cannot sync with the catalogue...so I cannot buy arrows because I supposedly don’t yet have a bow. You get a bow on the second mission...this is ridiculous. I’ve seen apps improve, but despite deleting and re-installing, this app is no longer a personalized connection to your game...it’s a 10 dollar guide and a non-functional catalogue. I’m SO mad, don’t even bother....BrwnpaprbgVersion: 1.5.1

Please allow language selectionThe app works really nicely, but it will not run if your console game is different from your phone’s language (this is stated on R*’s website as a requirement). Annoyingly, this means that if you have everything in-game in English, but your phone is in a different language (say, that you want things in their original language)... you absolutely cannot is this companion app. The fix is to switch the language on my phone every time I want to play RDR2, which messes with settings on the phone. I submitted a ticket and support did nothing but follow their script. Can we just get a setting: “App language”?.OleggeloVersion: 1.1

App is uselessIt’s essentially buttons to webpages, otherwise it serves no purpose. Rockstar has disabled the map both for Singleplayer and Multiplayer. It will indefinitely search for a session instead and not tell you but it was in update notes over a year back..Brock S(nicknames are taken)Version: 1.5.1

Stopped workingSummer 2020 this app was awesome. In replaying RDR2 I redownloaded this app (spring 2021) and the map doesn’t work. Which is the main reason I want to use this app right now. Have tried tons of troubleshooting, will have to give up and delete..Shoup313Version: 1.5.1

Please, connect to RDR2 single playerI downloaded the app to use the map in my iPad. Result is that my PS4 is paired but it does not find my game so I can’t use the map. No support for this problem was provided..Aristarco PederneirasVersion: 1.5.1

Features TakenHaven’t used this app in forever and started playing the game again. They got rid of the map and the social feed feature doesn’t do anything. Looks like a button but doesn’t press. Those are the only 2 things I used. I’d give this a -5 if I could.MawoofukooVersion: 1.5.1
