The only thing I’d like is if the updated the apple version to have the mordenkainen racial variants that the android version has. The android version even has the owlin race from Strixhaven. Of course it’s all generic names so they don’t get sued. Just would like a little love for the apple users. ### 3/5 — Not the same as the android version *2026-05-15, version 1.32* I have this app on both the google play store and the Apple Store. Why isn’t the owlin race on both versions and why can’t I level up a character with a custom race? This version is not as good as the other ### 3/5 — Needs 5.5e update *2026-05-10, version 1.32* Crashes a little too often, could do with a pdf export, and most obviously, needs the 5.5e updates ### 4/5 — Close to perfect *2026-05-03, version 1.32* After using the app for years, this app does a great job of just showing you what you need to know to get by. Some class and subclass abilities are butchered, but are easy enough to look up separately. I personally love the lack of overly stylistic formatting or UI that clutters other apps. Leaves it looking very clean and easy to navigate. Almost exactly like a digital version of the character sheet itself, which I assume is why everyone is here. Only thing that keeps it from 5 stars is the shortened descriptions. Given how the specific wordings of abilities can mean the difference between a yes or no from your DM, having the abilities that you get after character creation appear with more precise language would go a long way. That being said, I am looking forward to a release for a 2024 edition character sheet. The developer does a fantastic job and I will be using his version of the 2024 sheet should he make it. ### 4/5 — Absolutely (almost) perfect *2026-04-19, version 1.32* Users of this app know that it is well worth purchasing; I have never regretted paying for this app. As a matter of fact, as dm, I made my players purchase this app as well. It’s just worth it… the only reason this is getting 4 stars is because of the copyright avoiding language, that makes it hard to remember what race you are playing as, in addition the inability to make a custom character sheet from scratch. Again, almost perfect app. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-04-09, version 1.32* I love this app so much I have all my players use it and we pay the sub it’s worth it trust. But I would love to see some of the monster races (kobold skeleton mimics etc) and the new classes (pugilist and reanimater) other then that the app is absolutely perfect ### 4/5 — So close to perfect *2026-04-01, version 1.32* On the notes page I can’t see what I’m typing while I’m typing it. I’d like to please. ### 5/5 — Fantastic!! I would much rather this than D&D Beyond *2026-03-30, version 1.32* title says it all. this is a lovely app and i’ve used it for years. highly recommend. some bugs here and there but it’s loveable. I WOULD LOVE A 5.5 VERSION THOUGH!! ### 5/5 — Used to be amazing *2026-03-24, version 1.32* This was my go to app that I’d recommend to friends. But now the Paid is glitchy, cuts off the screen so you can’t see important things like perception. Is it better than paper? At least in a Ent saving sense. ### 5/5 — Amazing app. *2026-03-16, version 1.32* Great tool for creating news characters. Love the menus and layout. Love the design and aesthetics. I wish I knew how to add content, so I could use more classes like Rune Knight and others. ### 5/5 — Love this program *2026-03-03, version 1.32* Very useful ### 4/5 — Good but dated *2026-02-16, version 1.32* I like this app a lot, but it would be nice if it was updated with 5e 2024 changes. ### 2/5 — Says Fifth Edition but seems out of date *2026-02-16, version 1.32* Created a fighter and a lot of things that are in the players handbook just didn’t seem to exist in the app. Weapon mastery choices at level 1. Choice for origin feat through versatile as a human wasn’t there. Second wind being able to be used multiple times at level 4 vs it saying one in the app. Just a lot of things that didn’t seem correct to me. ### 5/5 — Amazing! 🙌 *2026-02-10, version 1.32* This app is super useful for D&D players. Especially beginners, it allows you to make your own character without any struggle! 5/5! Amazing app. ### 3/5 — doesnt let you do dual types *2026-02-08, version 1.32* pretty decent tho ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-02-02, version 1.32* I love this app because it is so easy to understand. I am able to make so many characters with this. I know it hasn’t been updated in a long time, but I hope they add the other sub classes soon to the other classes. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unusable *2026-07-10, version 1.32* I found it’s almost impossible to edit important parts of the character and doesn’t handle content that isn’t programmed into it yet (race, class etc) in any useful way ### 1/5 — Does Not Work *2026-06-01, version 1.32* After downloading the app, nothing worked. I deleted it. ### 1/5 — Sadly Abandoned *2025-08-14, version 1.32* This was THE app for nearly a decade, but hasn’t been updated in over 3 years for Apple. My son has an Android phone and reports his version of this same app has all the most recent stuff, but for iPhone users, this is functionally abandoned. Last update seemed to be the Witchlight Carnival or maybe Van Richten stuff… Such a shame, because i adored this app. ### 1/5 — Kinda buns *2025-07-15, version 1.32* No weapons ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing *2025-07-04, version 1.32* I have the paid version and it’s constantly crashing. I want a refund!! I sent the developer an email ### 1/5 — Paying to level up? *2025-05-31, version 1.32* Paying to level up is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen, don’t download this app ### 1/5 — Malware! *2025-02-01, version 1.31* Created char attempted to export to Google through app. Said failed. Tried second time and Google blocked app detected it was trying to gain access to my personal files! Deleting. ### 1/5 — Notes are broken *2024-12-05, version 1.31* Need to fix the notes section. Everything disappears below the bottom line of the box and I can’t scroll down past it! I paid money to use the full capabilities of the app, FIX THIS ### 1/5 — Import/Export Blocked *2024-12-05, version 1.31* Loved this app. Use it as a good place to mess around and create home-brew material since the json is easy to navigate…or it was before my file access became restricted. Please fix the google drive permission error, or at least the option to import/export from other locations. I know this probably won’t be done and that the message will most likely be ignored, but I hope someone listens so I’ll leave this here until things are done to rectify. ### 1/5 — Bro why do you need premium to level up *2024-11-24, version 1.31* I had no problems until that I mean come on man in dnd you level up a ton so why do I need to pay to level up my character ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this app. 5.5 version? *2026-08-23, version 1.32* Have used this for ages. Any chance there’s going to be a 5.5 version? ### 5/5 — The best there is *2026-08-21, version 1.32* My entire end group, and my family, have unlocked the full features. Both my brother and I have 30+ characters made on here each, and I recommend this for anybody I’m getting into dnd It’s an incredibly easy to use and navigate app that covers so much of what you need, to point that I don’t think I’ve used anything else for a character sheet beyond my first ever (who was on paper). I now always use this alongside an app for spells, and maybe have the wiki dot for class abilities, if I haven’t written them in my character’s notes. My only wish was that navigating between steps while building the character didn’t sometimes prevent you from undoing choices. Sometimes I’m doing my stats and realise my species pick was bad, so I have to redo the whole thing. That’s such a minor annoyance tho. Genuinely haven’t found anything else comparable. Thanks guys ### 5/5 — Best 5e character creater *2026-08-10, version 1.32* Been using it for years. Makes characters in less than 5 mins. I always start here and then copy over to a paper sheet. Incredible app. ### 5/5 — Great but needs an update *2026-08-04, version 1.32* The app is spectacular! But it needs to be updated due to recent changes in classes spells and dnd beyond changes. Would love some of the new stuff including grim books ### 5/5 — Love *2026-08-01, version 1.32* All the players in my current group use D&D beyond and often are having connection issues in the LGS, not me. My sheets are always ready and leveling is accomplished without WiFi. ### 5/5 — Easy and Accurate *2026-07-25, version 1.32* This is my go to app to create my characters. Been using it for years now. Just enough things to help but not too much to overwhelm you :) ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-07-24, version 1.32* This has been a wonderful tool for anything dungeons and dragons related for both myself and my family, five stars well earned! ### 5/5 — Great tool but weird names *2026-07-07, version 1.32* Everything is amazing from the quick builder to the fully customizable sheets. It’s also a one time payment instead of a subscription like everything else nowadays. The only speed bump is the names are sometimes changed for copyright reasons but you can usually figure out what it means pretty easy ### 5/5 — Still works! *2026-06-15, version 1.32* Kinda insane that this app still remembers my previous purchase of premium and I didn’t even have to do any roundabout methods to restore it, overall I am impressed and it’s still usable to this day for making quick things on the fly. ### 5/5 — Great for airplane mode or deployments *2026-06-15, version 1.32* Listen I love the simplicity of this app no major flash just a good solid app. The gripes there are a metric classes and races out there k wish this app had been updated regularly to reflect the evolving world. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
