Looks like what I need

Unfortunately I can't buy the map addon (the button just bounces and does nothing) and this isn't useful without tokens.

I don’t know what’s happening

It is not going to my Home Screen

Way too difficult to use

Even with the tutorial it is very difficult to understand what to do, and importing anything is an annoying process. I should be able to import images and other files directly from my phone, I shouldn’t need to use dropbox.

Great potential but getting there

Edit: I’ve been able to learn much more about this app now, and have been successful using it in a number of my D&D games. Yes there are still some User Interface issues, but you can usually work around them. Along with a few limitations that I wish were either not there are less restrictive… but all in I’m getting on with it much better now.

This looks to be a possible replacement for Roll20 online battle maps and play. But it’s not finished, not very intuitive, often asks for input but not able to do so (I.e. just wanted to add some goblins to the map I had created and showed me a pop up that I could not change from blank, which added 0 goblins!) And the tutorial videos don’t work, just a blank blue square! Another seems like it has something, app, but simply falls short, I can only hope the developer puts more time into it to make it a function app that will attract more users…

Cool but a little tedious…

This app seems cool enjoyable and helpful and I honestly want to use it as soon as possible, but but there are two small parts that are actually big in the game. The Spell/weapon area and the maps. It would be extremely helpful if all the spells and weapons were already built in with the app and all we have to do is choose the ones each player had, but we don’t have that we have to enter each one individually part by part. And about the maps, you don’t necessarily have to make this feature but it would be very helpful to have premade maps in the app. I am an experienced DM and player and don’t really have the creativity yet to make my own maps it’ll be very helpful if I had some preview of what other labs look like and were able to use them. Or maybe if we just had a tavern or a lake or something or somewhere important, but again it’s not very necessary.
