VERDICT

Should I use Yourtier (Tier)?

Your gaming journal and game tracker - yourtier.com

Worth it. Buy if you're a gamer who wants a free, Letterboxd-style journal to log, rate, and share games across phone and web. Skip it if you don't game, need deep playtime analytics, or want software with proven third-party reviews.

Confidence

Medium. Based on ~10 usable public sources; no third-party ratings, review counts, or funding data found. Trustpilot results reviewed were for TIER Mobility, a different company, and were excluded.

Best for

  • Gamers logging a backlog
  • Letterboxd-style social raters
  • Cross-platform players (iOS/Android/web)
  • Completionists tracking wishlists to credits

Not for

  • Non-gamers — it is purely a game journal
  • Businesses or teams — it is a consumer app, not a work tool
  • Users needing playtime estimates and completion data (HowLongToBeat does more)
  • Buyers who require verified review coverage or support SLAs

Gotchas - check before you buy

Free today, but no paid-tier info exists in sources — future paywalls possible.
