### 3/5 — App won’t update

*2026-08-25, version 2.90*

Was still running a version from original install in 2025.  There seems no way to download the newest version and was confused where to communicate or contact technical support through the App Support section.  Tried to delete and reinstall and nothing changed.  After putting forth a query through Apple they contacted me promptly with more details and help.  Unfortunately it was just a redirect to the website which I had already tried with no luck as to how to send a message or open a ticket to get help for why bug fixes and updates are getting installed.

### 4/5 — if you like strategic games

*2026-08-24, version 2.90*

you will love this app if you like straight up fun and straightforward games like this get this app..

### 5/5 — I like dnd

*2026-08-23, version 2.90*

Dnd is good

### 4/5 — Excellent resource

*2026-08-22, version 2.90*

Nearly required for playing DnD if you ever use electronics. Vitual tabletop has improved in recently in the master tier subscription. Helps me to be able to play with family from 3 time zones away.

### 1/5 — No Marketplace

*2026-08-21, version 2.90*

The app is generally great. It’s my main use when I’m playing. But not having dedicated access to the marketplace except through character creation is really a bummer. I shouldn’t have to use the mobile site in my mobile browser when there is a mobile app that should do the same thing. Also, backing out of marketplace once you access it stops the character creation process. That’s a real pain.

### 4/5 — J’aurais donné 5 étoiles, mais…

*2026-08-20, version 2.90*

…les algorithmes pour les jets de dés (d20) sont anormalement mauvais, rendant des résultats trop souvent dans la plage inférieure (1,2,3 et 4). Je ne sais pas si cela se configure dans l’apps. Autrement, c’est assez bien et très versatile, on peut jouer partout.

### 4/5 — My review (not professional)

*2026-08-19, version 2.90*

Awesome app but it has many flaws. Firstly it has too many payments which is super annoying if you want free alternatives and does there have to be a subscription!? It is really buggy, as seen in other reviews. It doesn’t load or show up even after reloading it, my experience with the app was fine, but others? Not so much. On to the positives, i really like the digital dice rolling because if i am playing somewhere without dice it is convenient. I especially like the fuzzy dice :) the character building is good especially with the stat calculations and classes that are from different books. In conclusion it’s a good app but it still needs some work to be done. Thank you Wizards of the Coast!

### 3/5 — App won’t update

*2026-08-18, version 2.90*

Still running a version from original install in 2025.  There is no way to download the newest version and no way to communicate or contact technical support through the App Support section.  Tried delete and reinstall and nothing changes.

### 1/5 — Cannot load library

*2026-08-18, version 2.90*

Two iPads, updated, redownloaded, etc. Both stuck on cannot load library for months. I figured maybe one of the patches or completely reinstalling would fix it, but nothing has helped

### 5/5 — Good👍

*2026-08-13, version 2.90*

Goooooooooooooood!
