Fallout Pip-Boy

Yes the app works on my phone and I do enjoy the connectivity. However I have a galaxy tab s2 and wanted to utilize the bigger screen. No matter what troubleshooting I do, no connection occurs. How is it that the app works fine on my phone but can't work on my tablet? If you can figure that out, you will get that 5 star rating

Edit: Great when starting out with no DLC installed but since far harbor came out the map terrain doesn't match the game. If you compare it to the in game pip boy that up till now I didn't use because I had this app. there are places that are in water on the app but not in game, the island is a whole different shape, and other things but FIX THIS PLEASE! I'M LOST WITHOUT MY PIPBOY!

Edit: Overtime this app has lost alot of its use the app works perfectly, but with the release of expansions and the lack of updates. This app has become useless. This is a wonderful app that has almost everything you need to help you on your exploration of the Commonwealth. Unfortunately it is lacking any support for the expansions Automatron or Far Harbor. I'm guessing the story will be the same with the Nuka-World expansion. Please for 5 stars add expansion support.

It's cool, smart, and inconviont. The only thing I use it for is stimpacks, radio, and map. Using it in battle isint the best as it dosent freez time. Please add a popup for in game when it is connected so your friends won't unequip all your items in battle. Overall fun and smart

I like to watch my best friend and fiancé both play fallout and I'm not very good at the game myself. When I'm using this I feel like I can be part of their game and it's really fun! I can help (or hinder, by giving them a pool cue as a weapon) them so they don't have to pause the game or stop walking somewhere. I seriously love it!

I would like to try this feature before rating it properly but I go to connect it and it just loads indefinitely. Needs fixing. (Ps I have a galaxy s6, probably one of the most popular phones out there, how they dont make this app work on this phone is unacceptable)

I was having trouble getting the app to recognize my PS4, alone with linking the Playstation App or linking YouTube by WiFi to be controlled by my phone. After about 2 hours of research I finally got them to find my PS4 by turning off UNnP in my routers settings. I read that's it usually set to off by default but mine wasn't. After turning it off, the app works either over WiFi or hardwired PS4. Hope this helps for those having the same issue. UNnP will be in the advanced settings of your router.

When fallout 4 came out I could use the pip boy app on my tablet now I can't even get it to hook up to my phone......

I used this app all the time, I got a new phone and re downloaded it and now it will never connect to my Xbox. I've tried restarting everything and it still tells me it can't find my Xbox now. Very disappointed that I wont be able to use this anymore.

Lol im seriously laughing at all the idiots who are saying this "game" is boring. Its a companion app for fallout 4 on PC, PS4 and Xbox One Its not even a game so if you don't own fallout 4 there's no point of installing this game and saying its boring. Other than that, great app Bethesda I really love your work and hopefully you make more great games in the future

Just offline mode is distracting with a constant flashing "Offline Rightnow" logo, preferably I acknowledge when i clicked yes for offline, it does not do that. If you can always connect to internet or pay for 4G every month it can be a small annoyance is all.

This app needs more work as it is not up to date with the game's status effects. Many question mark items appear and a sizing issue often occurs on tablets making the gui too small. Bethesda please update this ☺❤

It no longer connects between my Samsung Galaxy S7 and Xbox One. It used to work perfectly, but the last week at least the Xbox no longer even shows up. I will hard reset next time I go to play and hope it shows up this time.

I wish this app is not only companion app but more like notes and to-do app for real life. It fascinates me that I got inspiration from Fallout Pipboy to arrange things and set my quests for my daily activity. Please dev. Enable this app for productivity stuff. I will buy Status : Like personal app you can see all your body stats Inventory : You can arrange and keep your items to remind how much you have Map : Integrate with google map Quest : To-do app Radio : Personal Music Player Basically, make this something like Google Keep. It will be greatest app ever.

Keep in mind that this a companion app for Fallout 4. To be honest I like the idea and it works really well. But personally I don't find it useful when it comes to changing weapons when you're facing a deathclaw. But otherwise the arcade games are fun.

I love love love this! This is the best companion for a game ever, and it adds a lot of playability with the game if you have the pipboy edition! I was afraid that my S6 Edge wouldn't fit because they said the newer phones wouldn't, but just pop it in without any of the foam inserts, and voilà! It fits snug in c: just to reiterate for anyone not buying for that reason, SAMSUNG S6 EDGES DO FIT. BUY THE PIPBOY ON EBAY NOW. Good luck out there, Wastelanders.

I use this when my friend plays so he doesn't have to worry about his health! And if he wants to go to a location I can fast travel for him! I can literally do anything that he can on my phone without having to use the in game Pip Boy! I can even play the Pip Boy games on my phone while he plays Fallout 4! Very nice guys, good work!

With this app enabled, I can keep a track on where I am without enabling Pip-Boy in the game. So when I'm flying in a Vertibird, I can press "X" to land when needed or if I see a undiscovered location! Would be great if I had the options to track my robots - perhaps even issue them new orders..

My ps4 is connected directly so this app does not see my connection even tho its the same network so for me an app with so much potential becomes useless. I turned wifi on and yet nothing device not found is all i got. Maybe using the save file will give it a good use dont know if its worth even mentioning it.

So I have been using this Pip Boy app pretty much since the day it launched and I love it, my gaming buddy has saved me countless times with the Stimpaks and Radaway healing away when I'm in combat. But I now have an Issue! You need to update it as when playing the New DLC Far Harbour, the map overlay is wrong!!! It shows the Commonwealth map with Far Harbour POI

I'd love to give this 5 stars... I love the linking between the game with the maps and stats and everything really. However, after the second day of using it now all of a sudden it won't go pasted the initializing page! :( get it fixed and I will add the other 4 stars gladly!!

I had an issue with this app shortly after installing it, where it wouldn't connect to my Xbox1. However, it turned out to not be an issue with the app at all. As it would turn out, a hard restart on the console was all that was needed to resolve the issue. So to anyone else having this issue, push and hold the power button on your console. Then after it has completely shut down, reboot it and try connecting again. That issue aside, great app, love it.

Great interaction with the game. I love to have this up while i play the game that way i can have someone play while someone uses the aid on the go saved me from dieing so many times. The one thing I say could make it perfect is able to listen to the holotapes in the pipboy app also to be able to use the lvl up perk point in the app and also for the map to be able to zoom in and out while playing or off line other than that love it and recommend it to everyone who has the fallout 4 game. Thank you again.

Automatron support was great. I THINK it even came before the DLC was released. A few hours but still it came early. It's been a week and no Far Harbor support. App is awesome otherwise. Update : Been a LONG time now. Abandoned? Reduced to two stars.

So when i got the game i immediately thought of dlc because i loved skyrim. I downloaded it and used it A LOT but i noticed that automatron wasnt playing the distress signal. I decided to wait for far harbor to come out to see if somehow that was the problem. It sadly wasnt the problem and all the dlc was in my add-ons so i dont know whats going on.

Ive seen the app at work and i know how fun it is to use but it wont work properly on my phone. I downloaded it. It says it's connected but then I instantly get a message saying it can't connect. Really devostated it doesnt work. Im such a big fan of the game :( please fix and i will change the rating :) :) :)

wow... so many idiots in the reviews... Ignoring that, this app works fantastic. I honestly love having the map open on my tablet, makes life much easier on me. Basic inventory browsing and managment also helps immensely. If you play Fallout 4, this app is a godsend

I use it on my tablet and connect to my xbox one. Works pretty good. Once i had to restart tablet, internet, and xbox to get it connected. My only complaint is that the map for far harbor is funky... locations are properly place, terrain is wrong. Other than that, i loove it for when i am running to a new location and i keep to the right direction and avoid distractions!

Works on my PS4. BUT, its use is limited to the map, as everything else is far easier to access through the in game Pip Boy interface. Also it uses far to much energy, even plugged in to a 2.5 amp charger, the battery still drains on all my devices. Galaxy Tab Pro, Galaxy S3, 2014 Nexus 7. NOTHING else drains the battery while charging on any of my devices. It's great fun to use. Its weird watching your curser move on the map as i move around the game world. Please fix the high battery drain.

I love this app. If I have someone watching me play Fallout I always ask if they want to use the app. I also love the pip boy games that you can play even if you are away from home. But it drains the battery fast. Still love it. Also makes me want to play Fallout more. Shame I don't have the pip boy edition.

This app is awesome!! Btw, to all the people having trouble, I think you have to have your phone connected to the same network as your system. It didn't actually work for me until I hooked my phone into the same wifi that my ps4 is on.

On a big phone (Note 3), the buttons are still a little fiddly. And the launch version has no zoom on the maps, and the local maps are garbled. Otherwise: it works. Low latency, very responsive, and helps the immersive experience. Maybe it'd be best with a tablet. When maps work right, I'll up this to 5* UPDATE: still no zoom; local maps work...sometimes...sorta, smooshed. Needs update for Far Harbor DLC. UPDATE: everything but Nuka-World is out now, and still no update. UPDATE: Nuka-World...no update.

I knownthis app is easily, worth 5 stars but it won't connect to my ps4. It said make sure the pip you app setting is on, so I did, and still say no device found.... Pllleeeeaaaaasse, help me get this to work

I use it to play Fallout 4 with my girlfriend. It's actually pretty engaging to manage healing items and weaponry for a player in combat. For the player, it's kind of like having a companion who tosses you a stimpak when you need it, or hands you a sniper rifle when you need to make a long shot.

The app is great but i have problems with my wi-fi that make it unable to connect to the game most of the time. I think it would be really helpfull if at least for pc it could connect to your game via USB.

Works terrible on my Nexus 10. Can't even use the app due to the graphics being crap. Each tab merges with the next and you can't read a thing. Ends up just being streaky lines.

this is so awesome. I love being able to look at the map while walking around in the city area. they need to implement all status icons for survival though. otherwise amazing app. just what we needed! and exactly what we wanted ever since the first smartphones came out.

I i tried multiple times and it still doesn't work. I think it would be great if it did. the first review I saw was cool but then I saw 3 in a f*cking row with the same problem. I play on the PC version idk if it only works on Xbox but 1 review brought up the ps4 with the same problem. so don't get me wrong I love fallout 4 but I don't enjoy the 1 app on my phone that doesn't f*cking work.
