## What is Ultimate 5e Initiative Tracker?

Run 5e combat without the spreadsheets, index cards, or scraps of paper. Ultimate 5e Initiative Tracker keeps every combatant, stat, and condition on one screen, built specifically for running a game at the table.

ROLL AND TRACK
- Roll initiative with one tap or type it in directly
- Sort the whole order by initiative automatically
- HP, Temp HP, AC, Passive Perception, and Exhaustion for every combatant
- Every number field has quick +/- buttons, no keyboard required

NEVER LOSE YOUR PLACE
- Undo and Redo any change, up to 30 steps back, including deletions and sorting
- Everything saves automatically as you play - close the app and pick up right where you left off
- Death save boxes appear automatically at 0 HP, and skip a downed character in the turn order
- Track Concentration and Reaction per character, so nobody forgets an active spell mid-fight

TRACK CONDITIONS WITHOUT THE TYPING
- Tap to add Poisoned, Prone, Restrained, and every standard condition
- Add your own custom conditions just as easily
- Exhaustion tracked by level, with the tag updating itself as it changes
- Death save marks use distinct shapes and colorblind-friendly colors, not just red and green

RUN THE WHOLE ENCOUNTER
- The active card is clearly highlighted with an End Turn button
- Add Lair Actions that sort themselves into the initiative order like any other combatant
- Duplicate a card in one tap for a pack of identical enemies
- Drag and drop to reorder combatants by hand
- A Notes field for tactics, loot, or anything worth remembering

BUILT FOR THE TABLE
- Six color palettes, three light and three dark, for any table or lighting
- Export an encounter to share or back up, and import it again later
- Runs on iPhone and iPad, portrait or landscape

No account, no sign-in, and no internet connection required. Everything is saved locally on your device only. Nothing is ever uploaded, tracked, or shared with anyone, including us.
