### 2/5 — Pretty Buggy

*2025-09-04*

There are a bunch of bugs that make the app almost unusable. Many menu's will open and then not go away without closing the app. I used it for a bit to try to have all of my stats in one place, but after the level up process failed halfway through, I'm not planning to use it anymore

### 3/5 — Good UI, not a lot of content

*2023-08-15, version 0.63*

So the UI on this is good but there are a lot of things from 2e that aren’t in here. I wanted to use it for a companion with the Gears and Guns rulebook and it doesn’t have any of that. For core rulebook games it works well tho.

### 2/5 — No update in 2+ years

*2023-06-24, version 0.63*

Functional but not updated to newer content. Essentially the app has been abandoned by the creator.

### 2/5 — Seems like it would have been good

*2023-06-08*

From downloading, the first thing I tried to do was create a character, but when I got to my feat…? (Couldn’t see the text at the top bc like other reviews too big menu), I tried tapping the select button and it just didn’t work, neither did the back button function, so I just couldn’t use the app. Seems like the app could’ve been useful, but doesn’t really function well enough.

### 2/5 — Needs some work and then maybe

*2023-03-07*

I can’t say much about the functionality of the app because I can’t get past selecting ancestry feats.  It also doesn’t fit to page, so there are portions of the app that can’t be seen.  It looks like it might be really good if this could be fixed.

### 2/5 — Screen cut off

*2023-02-14, version 0.63*

When I try to use the app most of the screen is cut off do to my screen size pleas make it more proportional

### 2/5 — Incomplete & Full of Glitches

*2023-01-21*

Designer’s attempt to create a Pathfinder 2E character creation app equal to the one he made for D&D 5E is a failure so far. And, based on how long it’s been since the app was updated, it appears as if he’s given up on it. Considering the complexities involved in setting up player characters in PF2E, and the volumes of additional material released by Paizo since the Core Rulebook came out, I’m not too surprised that he seems to have given up.

### 3/5 — Great App

*2023-01-20, version 0.63*

I love the App, but the arcane thesis doesn’t have a menu to select from. It’s my first time playing pathfinder 2e and I needed the reference in an easy to read format. That’s my only gripe.

### 2/5 — No update in 2 years

*2023-01-16, version 0.63*

Functional but not updated to newer content. Essentially the app has been abandoned by the creator.

### 3/5 — Very useful, but yet to be fixed.

*2022-10-10*

Much like the one made for D&D 5e character sheet, this is app is perfectly useful for quickly generating characters for Pathfinder 2e.

However, the app is also full of bugs and glitches that easily break its expected performances. It’s been over a year since it’s release, and there has yet to be any updates.

### 3/5 — App needs updating

*2022-06-11, version 0.63*

There hasn’t been an update in a Bit and to use anything above level 1 requires a purchase.

### 3/5 — Solid, but needs an update

*2022-05-26, version 0.63*

The app itself is fine, but it only has a small portion of the published content

### 3/5 — Basics and quick start good

*2022-03-13, version 0.63*

I’m unable to modify or add spells for sorcerer which makes this not as useful, couldn’t access without paying only to find out it’s not supported. Save your cash spell casters

### 3/5 — Has some bugs, but otherwise pretty good

*2022-02-22*

Liked the 5e sheet app, so I wanted to try this. It does pretty well, but I ran into a bug: when I picked the Skilled heritage for the human ancestry, it wouldn’t let me pick a skill to be trained in. Other than that, I like this! Pathfinder definitely benefits from a generator like this.

### 2/5 — Help!

*2021-11-25, version 0.63*

Loved the dnd 5e sheet you guys did and was hoping this would be the same. But it is to big on my screen and I can’t select the continue options to where it is literally unusable. Pls fix or help me

### 2/5 — Needs work

*2021-06-04, version 0.63*

I'm using it on my M1 Mac air and it keeps freezing and I have to quit and reload the app, but it saves what I have changed though

### 3/5 — needs a lot of work

*2021-05-23, version 0.63*

can't buy anything without the app freezing

### 3/5 — Decent, some issues still exist

*2021-04-28*

Started a new 2e campaign recently and this app has been helpful.

It’s good at walking through the setup of a character though if you’re choosing a class that requires a deity or patron that section is blank and no update it appears for the last 5 months as of April 2021. (Though I think this may be a license issue with Paizo as I’ve noticed similar items in other 3rd party apps)

The navigation of the app is alright, though some times when opening up a menu item it will not close and remain and you can run into multiple open drop downs and it gets frustrating to close out.

Also when creating a character it  would be nice for a count of how much left in character building. This is most prevalent in ability scores and and skills.

This app is great for building a melee class, I have not yet tried a magic class, other than trying to build a cleric and finding the deity section blank as mentioned before.

This is a good app to use especially for beginners to get the feel for building a character in 2e, I hope the developers continue to improve the app.

### 1/5 — I guess this app was abandoned???

*2026-02-12, version 0.63*

The D&D version is killer. This one has potential to be just as great but I guess it’s been abandoned? All kinds of stuff missing. Went to make a Gunslinger and can’t :(

### 1/5 — Doesnt work at all

*2023-03-18, version 0.63*

Select and back buttons just dont work. Well the back one does sort of, it just kinda dumos all progress and puts me on a blank character sheet.

### 1/5 — Do not pay for this

*2023-01-25, version 0.63*

Incomplete, poorly updated, blank screens frequently when things like Diety selection or martial proficiencies pop up. Whoever made this doesn’t care enough about it. Wish I could get my money back.

### 1/5 — Abandonware?

*2022-09-03, version 0.63*

The app hasn’t been updated in a while, and it’s quickly becoming outdated.

### 1/5 — Literally unusable

*2022-01-28, version 0.63*

I can’t access parts of the screen because they’re blocked by ads. The screen, where uncovered, is also too zoomed in to see essential parts of the text. I clicked on about, and the page is blank and I can’t leave because the exit button is either off screen or under an advertisement.

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2021-07-11, version 0.63*

What the title says. Banner ads cover necessary menu options. I couldn’t get past choosing an ancestry feat because the ‘next’ button was blocked. Actual garbage unless you pay apparently, and even then, seems pretty clunky and the design looks cheap and ill-fitting. Don’t waste your time.

### 1/5 — Ok

*2021-02-16, version 0.63*

In general it’s ok. Especially for creating 1st level characters 
 However I contacted the designer on things to update over 2 months ago
 Specifically a dwarves fighter that wants to take marshal dedication can’t in this AP
 I allocated the right skills in diplomacy and intimidate and as a fighter I have martial weapon proficiency expert but... it won’t let me take the dedication 
 Also clan daggers? Idk what that is and I don’t see any way to take it as a dwarf

### 1/5 — Flawed

*2020-12-31, version 0.63*

Algorithms were off for character building and did not create accurate character stats. Would not allow you to level up a character without paying for premium.

### 1/5 — Not for smaller screens

*2020-11-26, version 0.63*

I tried to get into the game with my friends but with my iPhone I can’t get even get past the part after choosing what types of character I am. It will have me chose my perk I get from it but I can’t click next to continue on.
This is also the same for the DND version. (iPhone 12)

### 1/5 — Missing

*2020-11-11, version 0.63*

This is missing a lot. And there isn’t a way to add custom feats as new ones come out and no list of skills appears for deity etc a lot of flaws

### 5/5 — |title|

*2023-03-31, version 0.63*

This app helps really well with creating characters and makes everything really easy.

### 5/5 — Future looks bright!

*2023-02-07, version 0.63*

There is a similar app for D&D 5e that I love (more than D&D Beyond!), this seems to be on the right track to be just as good!

### 5/5 — What an absolute lifesaver

*2020-09-27*

Pathfinder 2E has an extremely long core rule book and some pretty extensive role playing options. It’s difficult to slog through the physical copy and character creation can be confusing when you’re learning the system. While I still keep a physical character sheet for games, this app is phenomenal at simplifying character creation and keeping track of stats and feats. Can’t wait to use this for a game. I also have this developers D&D 5E character sheet and while this is already great I know how much more he’ll improve this over time. Will have no problem paying for a premium upgrade. Nice job Walter, thanks for helping keep my hobby fun!

### 5/5 — Best Pathfinder Character Creator on iOS

*2020-09-10*

I was able to create a character in seconds without wondering what to do next. 

This app appears to be made by a single person. But, it is activly developed so bugs get fixed snd features added all the time. That is remarkable all things considered. 

Thanks for the great app. Critical hit.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for!

*2020-09-10*

I know other users have experienced their own issues, but my interaction with this app has been excellent. I did initially run into an issue with the app crashing while trying to select a skill granted by my background, so I reached out to the seller. He was extremely responsive and worked with me to push out an update fixing the crash, and I haven’t experienced any issues since. As far as I can tell, the calculations for my characters look consistent with the 2e rulebook, and I am quite pleased with the app.

### 5/5 — Very detailed sheet for pathfinder 2e

*2020-08-11, version 0.54*

Im really happy with all the details included and the sheet is well organized. The design is still rather basic and dark mode was unreadable (fixed already) and sometimes the created character is not saved but I drop 5 star since it has potential and seems like the dev is updating regularly! Nice job!

### 4/5 — Excellent start

*2025-06-10, version 0.63*

Please keep adding to this.  I would gladly pay to have all source books included for classes, backgrounds etc.  an actions page would be superb

### 4/5 — Very handy

*2023-06-11*

Very handy for rolling a quick character. Still buggy in some areas. Would appreciate a convenient way to file bugs.

### 4/5 — Great app, just needs updated!

*2023-05-04, version 0.63*

Very helpful and well done, but lagging behind current releases a bit! Otherwise it’s great!

### 4/5 — Good but needs work

*2023-01-26*

Lots of options and works well but the deity sheet is completely blank when when opened. Hoping it gets fixed soon.
