Keep your Druid's Wild Shape ready for the table. Choose an eligible beast form, roll attacks and damage, and track hit points and Wild Shape uses in one place. Beastform supports both the 2024 (5.5e) and 2014 (5e) rules. Each druid plays by the edition you choose when you create it, and the numbers follow that edition's rules. FIND YOUR FORM Browse 82 beast forms from SRD 5.2.1 for 2024 Druids, or 84 beasts and 4 elementals from SRD 5.1 for 2014 Druids. Eligible forms are filtered by level and Circle. Search by name or capability, sort by roles such as damage, armor, or scouting, and see why a form you searched for isn't available yet. KNOW YOUR BEAST Read attacks, damage, movement, senses, and traits alongside the mental ability scores your Druid keeps. See how Armor Class, hit points, saving throws, skills, and Wild Shape uses are worked out for your Druid. ROLL RIGHT ON THE SHEET Tap Attack or Damage to roll. Press and hold for Advantage, Disadvantage, or critical damage. Tap an ability score for a check, or press and hold it for a saving throw or Initiative. Choose from six dice styles, or use the Dice Tray to roll d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, and d20 with a count and modifier. KEEP COMBAT MOVING Track damage and healing under your edition's hit point rules: Temporary Hit Points in 2024, the beast's own hit points in 2014. Manage Wild Shape uses, heal with spell slots as a 2014 Circle of the Moon Druid, and take Short or Long Rests. Undo a change when you need to correct a tap. EXPLORE BETWEEN SESSIONS Browse the Compendium for either edition without creating a character. Keep multiple Druids, write notes for individual forms, and share a readable stat block with your DM or fellow players. BACK UP YOUR DRUIDS Export characters to Files and import them on another device. Imports create separate copies without overwriting existing Druids. BUILT FOR IPHONE AND IPAD Choose light or dark appearance, adjust text size, play in portrait or landscape, and use an iPad layout that places your combat tracker beside the stat block. Works offline. No account, ads, analytics, or tracking. Characters are stored on your device; you choose when to share or export them. Beastform is an independent companion and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Wizards of the Coast.

RockBuzz's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, rating, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
