Very unstable
During an afternoon of play we had to restart the app and reload the game multiple times to be able to run our game. People got disconnected often from the "server" and could not rejoin or lost functionalities such as the ability to level up their character. This OFFICIAL app needs to be more stable.

Connection issues
Tried to play across a home WiFi , every device would time out after a few seconds and the host device would have to re assign characters to device names.
People like to use tablets so anything not using a cell signal should still be able to use the app.
It still kicked everyone with phones too.
We eventually gave up and pulled the cards out.
Also the familiar card does not assign to the armor slot. Seems like that should be a thing.
Custom options for story mode would be awesome.
My group never plays default rules. Modified rules make story mode soooo much more fun and challenging. If we could modify xp and trading options or transmute options that would be awesome.

Great concept, very flawed update
The companion app was working wonderfully until this past update (ver 1.2) but has just now introduced a bevy of new errors.
- killing minions awards micro XP (in story mode) to the active character, but stops dead at 5 micro... which shouldn't be possible since that is a full normal XP. No rollover happens and any excess is lost
- killing non-minions has the same issue for all characters, necessitating manual tracking of all XP (notepad)
- if nobody has enough minimum XP to level, the class button is greyed out
- the biggest flaw... it's incompatible with older saves, killing a long running campaign I was in the middle of

Great when it works properly
Fantastic companion app to avoid the mess of card decks and using up your limited class sheet pads. Helps a lot with keeping track of all the combat modifiers too. However, I have run into quite a number of bugs while using it, sometimes forcing us to restart the app, and once even to restart the game (thanks fully we were only a couple of turns in) due to being unable to end a hero’s turn. One consistent bug we have run into is the players who join the game being unable to see/select their starting equipment. Occasionally we have to go into other screens in order to reactivate buttons that should be active (often the class button). Finally, the level 2 great sword combat item card is 1 handed on the app, when it should be 2 handed (I checked the physical card).
If these bugs get fixed, I would rate it 5 stars.

Need Green Horde Crossover!!!
Love this app and it works really well. My ONLY issue is that Green Horde heroes and monsters are not currently a part of it, which practically halves the game for me (as I went ahead and bought everything as I love these games!). Please, please, please introduce Green Horde characters and monsters and it’ll be amazing!!
