Crashes way to often or loses data. Still using though as it is a great resource, just wish it was more reliable.

I have had this game for a few hours, having downloaded it half an hour before a session because I was looking for somewhere to store my main NPC. It’s amazing, really useful, and honestly the layout is beautiful. However this doesn’t quite get a 5* rating because I found that the races provided were minimal, and, to be honest, I started swearing when I opened the “backgrounds” tab. Please incorporate more backgrounds so we don’t have to manually transmit them from PH, more races (it is surprisingly hard to quickly transcribe Tabaxi race info). There is also one more problem: for the Outlander background I input the usual Proficiency, then I selected Sorcerer for the class and chose the two other Proficiency. But it did not give the two Proficiency chosen, only the two Outlander Proficiency! Please fix this, otherwise amazing. Also why, if for years people have had problems with the compendium’s lack of data, has it not been fixed?

I love to homebrew and this app makes it easy and quick to do, however I find that it can be a bit problematic when homebrewing classes or subclasses. I would love if their was a separate tab in the compendium for homebrewed classes, items etc and I would recommend having separate lists to include traits such as warlock invocations since having them in the spell category creates a fair bit of extra clutter

For the most part this app is amazing and the small fee to allow for multiple characters is well worth the price. However there is a big issue when you want to multi class any spell caster with a Warlock. For example I am currently playing a 5th Lvl Paladin, (4 x 1st lvl and 2 x 2nd level spells) who is going through a crisis of faith which is to be picked up by a cunning living weapon (Hexblade) which should add a couple of cantrips and 2 x 1st Lvl Warlock spells. However the app reduces the Paladin spells to 2 x 1st as well, vastly under powering the build. If this is sorted I will gladly raise the rating to 5 stars.

That’s all just yes.

Adding items to the compendium should be possible from within the item menu, not a thing you have to do separately. That or add a tutorial section that explains that if you create an item in a campaign, adventure or combat its locked to that encounter. Currently you need to either export it to a file and reimport it, or just recreate it. I will note that exporting it to a file seems not to work on my ipad. UI/UX is a big part of what makes this app hard to use. Notes below. Dropdowns, tapping on the chevron does nothing. That is the intuitive place to tap why is it the only place on that line that does nothing? You can literally tap the blank space to the chevrons left and it will activate the dropdown.

This is very helpful for me but when I looked up the races, backgrounds and classes, I became disappointed that they are lacking. Especially the background where there is only acolytes, which is annoying when your a new player and are not entirely comfortable with manually entering it, fearing that you might screw up

Highly recommend this ap and it is worth upgrading to the premium no add

This was our first time playing D&D and this app has helped guide us through the process of character creation rather than juggling 15 bits of paper each. Only real criticism is it would be nice to be able to type in a value for when we spend a hit die or at level up for additional hit points. I like to be able to roll a real die rather then using the generated number.

This is the best interface for a digital character sheet so far, with a great sense of adaptability and hierarchy, giving you a great overview of the state and abilities of your character... apart from actions... Everything else you can perform or use or have restrictions on is displayed with clarity and purpose, but actions despite being the most important thing someone should be aware of because of their use outside combat just becomes paragraph blobs that make it hard for you to understand at a glance what you can do, and this is the one thing the app could stand to learn from D&D Beyond out of all the things Fight Club does better. The title and body of each ability or trait is hard to distinguish so theres a lack of flow or separation between what you have when expanded and there’s no way to collapse all in one action, while you can add stats to track traits or feats on your sheet these trackers really should be aligned with the information instead of a separate panel on the opposite side, and theres no way to move the stacks of information around, so if you’re out of combat and need to lean more on actions you cant move it next to your stats and core character status, letting you see everything you need at the same time. Additionally, adding stuff to your character sheet outside of the builder is weirdly clunky. There’s no way to sort items based on what you can equip, no way to perform a manual search on the Compendium items you have in the menu that lets you add things to your character sheet. The Compendium Menu lets you search to find things that exist but you cant directly add things you find to your sheet... if you... want to... There’s a lot of weirdness here when it comes to editing and adding to your sheets as the menus for finding and adding things are completely separate and it adds a lot of fiddling to what could clearly be a more streamlined process. Regardless of all of this though, it’s still the best digital character sheet app on iOS and it’s still really enjoyable to use overall.
