Great for organization, just a couple minor complaints thus far...
As the title says, great for organization. Keeps things nice and tidy for encounters. My favorite part, by far, is the built-in monster manual.
On the other hand, if I were to make changes there's a decent list I would make (granted I know practically nothing about creating apps):
-It lacks a simple (if any) way to edit an adventure name that is already created.
-I would add a "Dungeon" category nested between the Adventure category (which I would rename "Campaign") and the Encounter category.
-When typing a note into the note section, the text appears in the middle of the box, and there isn't any word wrap.
-The player section lacks many inputs for character information, such as appearance, deity, and inventory. To name a few.
-Also, I may be doing it wrong, but when I put a URL into the character portrait slot, nothing changed.
-A loot/treasure/item creator would be nice.
-And the encounter screen could use a revamp to its overall layout.
-Not certain if there's any others, but that's all I can think of now.
Otherwise, it's a great app. Works fantastically for organization, and condenses all kinds of paperwork. I'm certainly not upset with the money spent on it, and would be more than willing to pay another fee for these changes.

Dropbox connectivity doesn't work at the moment...
... Which robs the app of its usefulness. Hopefully fixed soon.
Works great for keeping combat running smooth.
I can speak for the Dropbox issues. I don't use drop box so I can't rate lower for a feature I don't use. I've been using the app to run Hoard of the Dragon Queen for five players and it keeps combat going very nicely. After putting the data in for some of the custom creatures and NPCs I have everything I need right there. Current hit points, conditions, armor class, all the available attacks monsters or players have, the damage a weapon can do along with the pcs modifiers added in. It's great.

Dropbox integration Doesn't Work
Dropbox download/upload doesn't work. Buyers beware.
Too automated but solid
The app works very well. It does everything we'll with few complaints. There is a minor learning curve but the developer site has a PDF I recommend reading. However the app is too automated for most GM/DMs. I would like to see an option to disable app rolling actions but it reminding the DM to role. The biggest issue I have is I cannot set monsters initiative. That is always rolled and there is no way to change it.
