Turn Tracker (the successor to the popular app InitiativeBoard) is a slick and easy to use initiative tracking aid for combat in pen-and-paper role playing games like D&D (5e or any other edition), Pathfinder (1e or 2e), Starfinder, Shadowrun and many other systems. Initiative rules are configurable to your game's rules: choose dice (d20, d10, 1d6 to 5d6), ascending/descending order, range of values and more. Also choose from one of the built-in color schemes, or design your own. No more messy whiteboards, magnetic boards or pencil and paper! Quickly and easily create draggable tiles for PCs and NPCs, and arrange them in initiative order on the board, or let the app take over the dice-rolling for you. Determining initiative, changing the turn order and starting new encounters is all a matter of seconds. Turn Tracker fully supports landscape and portrait orientation as well as slide-over and multitasking - no more app switching just because you need to look something up in a PDF or on the web. The free version of Turn Tracker supports one campaign with up to 10 tiles on the board (5 PCs/NPCs each). Upgrading to Premium lifts these restrictions and you can run multiple campaigns in parallel, with unlimited PCs/NPCs per campaign.
