Fantastic

A great character sheet, plus access to all the information about item you could ever need. And the only ads that I get are when I level up a character. Only thing is that the encounter tool sometimes crashes.

Mine is crashing

Idk why it just crashes when i hit the plus icon

Great app, small issues

I’d like to start off by saying I love this app. It’s made DMing and creating characters incredibly easy to use. It let me get into DND without having to fight the books or spend a fortune. However I do think some minor issues hold it back.

My app hasn’t updated since 1.0.1 due to concerns about my characters, NPCs, monsters and items being deleted. There’s a lot of homebrew here which would kill me if it was lost. Why won’t I save everything externally you may ask?

Cause the app doesn’t allow me to use .cah files at all. Every time I click it it’ll take me to the page I was last on or the home page, and won’t load the file. This could’ve been patched for all I know, but the fear of losing it outweighs the want to update it. I scoured Reddit and other sources but couldn’t find anything that works to help the update. Has this been patched on iOS in a future update so I could safely update?

I love it, but…

This app is amazingly conveniently and provides everything I need, there’s just one feature I can’t figure out. I make a lot of homebrew content, and I don’t understand how to share it with others so that they can also download these things. There’s no tutorial on how to do so, meaning I can’t bring my hard work to the players of my campaign.

Works great

This is a great app, has some issues but for someone who plays a lot with new players this definitely helps me with explaining and showing them how to start D&D
