Destiny 2 Companion Reviews

I have used Destiny2Companion for about 5 years give or take. The only things I really wanted them to ad was a way to purchase bounty’s from the vendors in the companion app though Destiny2Companion with out a bounty limit, and as few limitations on what you can buy from them; also you should ad a calendar section for Destiny2Companion and you can see what stuff a vendor might be selling in the game for today’s vendor inventory information, but they all ready had that so I was bumming that you could see future inventory refreshes and see what you will get and what rolls-etc. they should also ad a feature where you see one of those future inventory’s, and you want to remember what day it going to be you should have a feature where you can bookmark or wishlists it or something, and then you would get a notification that’s saying today’s your day to get your armor roll or mod, so that way you don’t have to just get on destiny 2 every day and launch to the tower, just to see what they’re selling which can be a pain. You should also work with some of those 3rd party destiny 2 websites, and maybe you can get it merged to work in unison with each other.

If you’ve ever played destiny 2, you’ll know that there is a lot of transfer Ig weapons from place to place, as well as picking up quests and claiming bounties. When you would normally have to return to the tower to do most of these things, the companion app saves you that time. You can quickly transfer weapons in and out of the vault, as well as from character to character, in as little as two clicks. The recent feature that lets you acquire bounties is amazing. It saves so much time and it’s very easy. Clan chat is also nice, allowing you to connect with the community. The companion app is very useful for in game stuff, but it also has quite a lot of out-of-game features as well. Updates, patch notes, hot fixes, and much more. Overall, if you play destiny, Destiny2Companion is absolutely essential.

The user interface of Destiny2Companion is definitely lacking. Example: When I get notifications about Clan Chat messages and click on the notification, I'm not taken to Clan Chat where the message came in. I've had to figure out on my own that I must manually go to Clan Chat to see where the notification was coming from. That should be mobile app UI 101. Especially when Bungie's promoting D2's clan oriented features to encourage cooperative play. Same applies to all other features of Destiny2Companion , like LFG.

The other issue I'm seeing is that Bungie took out very useful PvP statistics we used to have in the Destiny 1 companion app version. Now I have to resort to 3rd party web apps to find this info; and that's clearly not as ideal as to what Bungie already offered in the old version of their companion app.

So if new Clan features aren't really all that ideal to begin with, why did they get rid of old functionality that did work and was actually useful?

So I was never a big fan of PC game companions like this, being able to make adjustments and chat on the fly isn’t that appealing to me because I never felt the need to.
What really make Destiny2Companion awesome is the 3D models. Destiny does not allow you to view your weapons from 360 degrees, which is something that players like me wanna do! We’ve been wanting it for years! Tell me when you get a god roll the first thing you do is not to admire that thing? You got a problem.
This is so awesome, now I can fully determine if a gun is ugly or not. From the one single angel provided in the game menu sometimes it’s hard to tell what does your gun look like.
If some effects like changing magazine or firing could be added I would give you six stars.
It is also fun to be able to mess with my load out and gear no matter where I am. I admit.

Destiny2Companion is very useful. It is not hard to learn how to use and is a benefit especially when making a tower trip is not possible while you are in an activity but need a piece of armor or weapon.

My only suggestion would be to add one more sorting option to the vault. Right now you can search under damage type, power level etc. but it would be nice to have the option to search in primary, secondary or heavy weapons as well as the other sorting methods. Just an idea. Oh, and maybe have a way to make stores load outs for characters so you can open Destiny2Companion , go to saved load outs, click one button and have your characters armor and weapons change for you.

This is a wonderful app, as it allows you to quickly swap things from your vault to any of your characters without having to manually go to the vault. Another great feature is that you are able to check the progress of your quests and pursuits to exact numbers rather than percentages. The LFG is especially helpful, as it was the only reason I was able to complete the Outbreak Perfected and Truth exotic quests.
My only suggestion is one that would be for the purpose of saving time. If it were possible to exchange materials and such with vendors from Destiny2Companion , this would make the struggle of full inventories and going back and forth from planet to planet easier. I’m sure other players share my thoughts.

So I’ve been using Destiny2Companion for quite some time. And for a long time it has been quite reliable.... that being said. Destiny2Companion has a very bad habit of getting buggy sometimes. Like for instance whenever the Destiny servers go down Destiny2Companion goes down too. which isn’t the problem. The problem is that for three days the Destiny servers have been up but Destiny2Companion has completely gone down. Now I’ve closed it completely and restarted it and that didn’t work....I keep checking Destiny2Companion Store for any updates which there is none. I can handle an app not working most of the time but not when it’s in conjunction with gaming!... Being able to transfer items on the fly is crucial for players who don’t have time to go to different characters and have to transfer it one at a time.

The 64 was how old I was when I started playing Destiny. This Summer I will be 70. I have played this game with two of my Sons and two of my Grandson’s. I enjoy this Video game because your enemies are space creatures not Realistic looking People. I tried some of the other games before Destiny came alone, they were to realistic with human characters.
One thing I do get really tried of is the continuous nerfing of the best weapons.
Now that gets really boring and useless.
Leave the pinnacle weapons alone. If the people playing PVP can’t handle it TOUGH. Let them get the better weapons their selves and leave the PVE alone.
Thank you for making such a Beautiful Game for us all to enjoy.

I’ve been a big supporter of Destiny since the very beginning. I’ve been using Destiny2Companion since it came out. I lost interest in D2 about a year ago and wasn’t until recently that I started to get into it. Well, I deleted Destiny2Companion the first time. I was able to log in very easily. However, since I redos loaded it, I can’t even log in anymore. I tried to log in through Steam and it said that my log in info was incorrect. It was correct and I even spent some time to make sure I was hitting the right keys and everything. Then I tried to log in through PSN. I put in my info and it said that it can’t connect to the server. I’ve been trying to log in for over a month and every day I get the exact same responses. I put in the right info for both, I have them connected so I can log in with either. Yet I’m still not even able to log in. I want to find people to do raids and strikes yet I can’t.

All other “companion apps” should aspire to be like this one. Not only is this the place I goto to switch gear but it is always updated with the latest game relevant content so as to truly be your Destiny companion. I like companion apps - they take all the “admin” type content and give it to you a different way.
1 change I would love to see is an ability to save loadouts. Lots of players download other api’s for the sole reason mentioned above. Not because they’re of higher quality but because they get you back in the action faster - switching to a different full loadout rather than moving things around one-by-one.
Thank you for everything-keep it coming please.

Destiny2Companion is very useful, and I love it a lot, there are many positives about Destiny2Companion . But there are also some negatives about it too. First of all, it is only Destiny 2, why can’t it have some Destiny 1 LFG’s? I think you should be able to choose between a Destiny 1 Raid you want to do, and a Destiny 2 Dungeon I want to do, I think it would be nice to be able to have a Destiny 1 LFG section because some people (like me) don’t have many or any friends that play Destiny 1 (not counting Destiny 2) on the same platform. Then again that is just my opinion but I think this could be very useful for your app. Thank you for such a great game! And please think about this!

Destiny1/2 are the best games I’ve ever played. I didn’t personally get to play D1 but I played at my friends house back in the day and I loved it. And I wasn’t able to get D2 till it came out on Steam last year, and I have well over 1200 hours on the game😂 anyways Destiny2Companion is very useful and amazing thank you bungie for everything you guys have done. I’m looking forward to beyond light so much! I already preordered! ALSO the lore in destiny is SO deep and in-depth it’s insane! And it’s amazing I love it. And the characters are THE BEST, and Cayde-6 will always be my favorite! But also Sait-14 is awesome and as far as characters that are still alive saint is my new fav character😝 anyways carry on! Thx bungie 😝

I’ve tried resetting Destiny2Companion , uninstalling reinstalling, yet every time it says I have no account linked. I have to switch accounts 3 times, go to gear and go back to switching accounts one more time then profile, just to see my inventory. Then it won’t let me transfer gear, says can’t communicate with server. Nothing wrong with my net or anything. But it’s been doing this for about a month. Then an update came and it’s only gotten worse. Please fix this so that it loads everything. Messages, chat, notifications, and that the inventory shows and allows you to transfer. 1 star until it’s fixed. I had it 5 until Forsaken dropped.

Let me make this clear, my 2 Stars are for D2 not D1. D1 I’d give 5.
I’ve been playing since month 1 of Destiny (so a very long time). D1 is clearly more enjoyable than D2. Be it that D2 does have a better skill selection and larger maps than D1. However, since the switch of developers D2 has been getting very grind oriented and new players now have too little direction in how to play the game and what to play in the game. Vets are being pushed away because the “new” content is constantly just recycled content in a new setting.
And in interviews with developers there’s a clear distinction of not following through with what they said they’d do with the game: “we want you to feel powerful” “we want you to be able to play how you want with your gear”. Well... we don’t, and we can’t because they limited what gear we can now choose to use.

For the most part Destiny2Companion does work. I’ve been using Destiny2Companion for about a year now and it let me easily and conveniently manage my gear. However, today was the first day that I’ve had a true problem with Destiny2Companion . After 100+ transfers, I had a piece of gear become permanently deleted.
I believe the reason for this loss was due to me infusing that gear right before I tried to transfer it. After I hit transfer on Destiny2Companion , I noticed that the gear was still showing the previous power level. Now I know that this doesn’t happen very often but because I know that it can and that it did, I will not be using Destiny2Companion in the future. I’d rather just take the extra time to ensure that my gear makes its way to its final destination safely.

Best Game I have ever played I’ve been playing Destiny for five years still love to play the game. Always something new to do. I like the fact I can use whatever gun I want to use, I can dress my man however I want to dress him. The different worlds you get to go to are so unique, and so much detail to the flowers the leaves the sky with shooting stars, also blue pools of water, and trees that looks so real. The tower is beautiful with robots and the way it is decorated is just beautiful. They have put a lot of time and effort into every little detail. Thank you Bungie for such a great game I hope I will be playing destiny for the next 20 years I like it that much.

They have a problem with Xbox not being able to connect been playing for years now I have to start all over with another gamer tag just to be able to play so all those pinnacle weapons that took forever to get are all gone have to start new. So I am a big time Xbox person and the fix bungie says is to get another platform and use cross save or whatever it is called to play. Bungie says they are working on a fix. After some research I found that they have had this problem since at least 2017. Maybe longer. Outside of this issue I love the game or I would not have played since day one destiny is a good game and I really hate the fact that I have lost all the years I have invested in the game.

It’s not a must, but more of a quality of life app. Moving gear around is super easy and the main reason I have Destiny2Companion. I can move gear between 3 characters and my vault with ease. I can do it on the fly when I realize I need a specific piece or if I have free time I can sort everything out. The clan page isn’t always perfect, but it does give us a chat to keep up with what our clan needs. The other thing I use on it is the updates, I can easily see what’s coming up, maintenance notes or what ever news they post.

All in all, it make my gaming experience much more pleasurable to have Destiny2Companion.

As an admin to my clan, I find Destiny2Companion extremely helpful. I can keep up to date on not only my clan and its progress, and I can also check on my Destiny 2 characters: the milestones, equipment/weapons/gear, learn about the things I want to acquire and what I don’t have. I also just discovered the admin only chat feature which is really helpful.
The only problem I have is with the chat system. More often lately I’ll send a message to my clan and the last word of my message won’t send. I’ll have typed it out and sent it but for whatever reason it cuts only the last word out of the message. I hope that gets fixed soon.
Overall very handy and helpful app

Destiny2Companion has improved in certain aspects. I think it needs to have the old options of telling you what parts your character has done for the raid instead of just saying if you have or haven't. In other words I ran the raid but switched at the end boss to another character and now just cause I beat the raid end boss on one character it doesn't tell me that I could still receive other power weapons/armor for the other parts of the raid that I've done. But it says that I haven't completed the raid on my one character that I won't receive any of those rewards until I beat the end boss on just that character. Last time I saw Destiny2Companion that had this feature was around The Taken King.

So. Bungie. I know you probably won’t listen to me, but I am going to try. I am one of your biggest supporters. Not visibly, but I am. I know you like secrets, but I think that a hint is called for. You know what I’m talking about too. The Black Spindle. Personally I don’t want or need it. I’ve got way too many exotics at this point. Not even getting them excites me anymore. But I just hate seeing all these dumb theories that are going to just be dead weight in the end. All the same, I guess. But don’t you think that it’s about time to kick it off? At least do it during the next expansion. Please.
