FAQ
Frequently asked questions about board game tracking
Everything you need to know about tracking your board games, managing collections, and playing with friends.
How many board games are in the database?
Our database includes over 10,000 board games with expansions, alternative names, player counts, and categories. Search by name (with typo tolerance), filter by player count, or browse by category.
Can I track games with friends who don't have accounts?
Yes! Create "local players" for friends without accounts. When they join later, merge their local user profile to preserve all game history. No data is lost.
What statistics does the app track?
Track win rates, total games, wins/losses/ties, head-to-head records, expansion performance and most-played games. Filter by period, game, or opponent.
Does it work on mobile devices?
Yes! Use the web app on any browser (iOS, Android, tablet, desktop) or download the Android app. Log in with the same account and you'll see all the data you filled in previously.
Can I manage my board game collection?
Yes, add games to your collection and wishlist. Collection games appear first when logging results, making it quick to track your favorite board game.
How do achievements work?
Earn 60+ achievements for milestones like games played (1 to 500), wins, streaks, genre mastery, and social goals. Track progress and see when you earned each achievement. Achievements are awarded retroactively based on your existing game history.
Is my data private and secure?
Yes, your data is stored securely with encryption. We never sell your information. You can delete your account and all data at any time directly from the profile page.
Can I create my own custom board games?
Yes! If your game isn't in our database, you can create a custom board game with a name, player count, playtime, description, image, and categories. Your custom games are also visible to your friends so they can use them when logging results.
What are parties and how do they work?
Parties let you save groups of regular gaming partners (like "Friday Night Crew") so you can import everyone into a game result with one tap. You can also save players from a game result as a new party for next time.
How does team mode work?
When logging a team game, assign players to color-coded teams. Scores can be shared across the team or entered individually. Track team-based win rates and see how different team compositions perform.
Can I add photos to my game results?
Yes, you can take a photo or choose one from your gallery when logging a game result. Photos are stored securely and appear alongside your game history. You can remove photos at any time by editing the result.
What languages is the app available in?
Board Games Tracker supports 6 languages: English, Dutch, German, Spanish, French, and Italian. You can change your language in the profile settings. The change is immediate and your preference syncs across devices.
How do I connect with friends?
Send friend requests by searching for other users. Once connected, you can view each other's profiles, see shared game history, browse collections and wishlists, and add them quickly when logging results.
Can I track scores in games?
Yes, you can log individual scores for each player in a game result. Scores are optional — you can also just record who won and lost. Score data feeds into your statistics for deeper analysis.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, you can permanently delete your account and all associated data from the profile settings. Go to Profile, scroll to "Danger Zone," and select "Delete Account." This removes your profile, collection, achievements, friends, and all uploaded photos.
