Worst of the web app in mobile form
The character sheet is useless on the web app. Our DM uses Beyond for that because that is what they do well.
What roll 20 does well is everything else - the table-top map, the chat thread, the journal entries. Where are these key features?
The developer absolutely needs to toss this garbage and redesign the app based on the strengths of the platform - not is greatest weakness. You are featuring the worst of what you have to offer.

Unfinished
They need to drop serious cash to make this work. It seems cobbled together and it barely works making to go back to the desktop version in order to do what the app cannot. Plus it gives no real indication on what you must do on the desktop side in order to make it work.
Roll20, save your reputation. Take this out of the App Store hire someone to fully develop and app for you then come back when it’s working.

Cannot access character sheets
I can access sheets inside games but the ones I make outside of games I can’t seem to access?
Excited but nothing appears
As the title states, I’ve tried to use the app at the latest version, 1.2.2. Build 175 and all I’m getting is an app that has nothing working.
I don’t know if the app is discontinued or not, but there’s no options to create character sheets, no options to do anything. Choosing Dnd or ALL Games didn’t do anything. There’s just a blank-ish page with “tips on getting started” but nothing else. There’s a search bar, but that just give search results and still nothing else.
In the menu, there’s a “welcome user” message and a sign out button. I am lost. Is this an app, or just a placeholder?

Wouldn't it be nice
I really wish this app worked properly for someone in my shoes. Unfortunately I am not able to use my laptop as my hands are no longer capable of using it due to physical complications. I can barely use my cell phone. The small bit of hope I had to use D20 to get back into D&D virtually, is out the window. I can use it to create a character, but playing is just a dream

Why does this even exist?
I downloaded this thinking I could do Roll20 on the go. This app is literally just character sheets. You can’t edit the sheet in the app, nor can you make new ones. You can’t see maps, move tokens, etc. Non-5e sheets aren’t compatible, so if you play Pathfinder or something this app isn’t functional. What’s even the point? This app is a waste of space don’t even download it. It’s not worth it.

App isn’t showing any details on characters sheets
Have tried support on website but here there isn’t any help from the bot. Two weeks ago this was working. Have restarted the device (iPad) and reinstalled the app.
Will delete this review if problem resolved by support.

No DnD Beyond
It’s nice to be able to have a 2nd screen on mobile device with the character sheet, but it is certainly limited: cannot create or edit a character sheet in the app (have to go to the website, which is only really useful or fully accessible on a desktop browser… not even iPad Pro…), and character sheet will frequently display “you have no spells” or “you have no items”, despite displaying those spells and items directly underneath the message.

No Compendium Text
I’m a DM and was hoping for an easy way to read adventure compendium text, like I can in the D&D Beyond mobile app. No such luck here. You can search for listings and things, but there doesn’t seem to be any way to access the module content you pay for on Roll 20. This is greatly disappointing since the value of being able to read the books when out and about, without having to lug around a laptop, would be huge. But also because reading adventure text on the Roll 20 website is a truly awful experience. The 5E books cost the same as they do on D&D Beyond, but offer no convenient way to just go to the book you bought and read it comfortably. You are forced to create a game, then launch the game, then find the book and read it in a game window. Sorry to say, this app does nothing to offer a better experience either. While powerful, Roll 20 continues to be one of the least user-friendly VTTs, catering mostly to power users who want to hack it and program their own stuff but leaving most users with a bewildering UI.

Very Broken
The app kind of works. Currently my character sheet is stuck in a menu with no way to return back with out leaving the session. Logging back in doesn't fix.
