Love it and if you love DnDB, you should too
First, let’s get one thing out of the way: buying physical copies of the books does not entitle you to all the content on DnDBeyond. I am amazed that I am still seeing that nonsense, years after they started licensing the digital content. This is a companion app for DnDBeyond and you only have access to what you have purchased through DnDBeyond. Okay? Get it? Alright, let’s move on. Yeesh. Day 1, the app was stable, though it lacked some features. This was completely fine though, because the app itself linked to your characters on DnDBeyond when you needed to access features that you cannot yet access on the app. The new features are coming, and so far quickly as there have already been significant additions since release just a few days ago like editable hitpoints. No crashes and full features with internet makes this a great start. Being able to fully unplug is on the horizon. It’s also pretty fast. Not as fast as the website at the time of posting, but fast enough to only barely be noticeable. Another win. Overall, I am very satisfied. I do have only one critique and it’s for tablet use. The app treats the tablet like a wide phone, so that does leave a lot of empty space. I hope that future updates moves it to be much like the website. The website on my phone and iPad are very different, but given the device they operate on, it’s hard to say that one is better than the other. That is all. Thanks, DnDB and Fandom Inc!

Pretty Good!
From what I can see of the app, it’s pretty good! It did take a little while to download, but that might just be because of my device. However, I don’t see a way to roll dice like on the website. This app will be extremely useful, as it allows me to only need one tab open on my computer when I play. It makes it so much easier to access all my character’s stats and info, even if some of the tabs (such as notes) are still under development and can’t be used. Even with two monitors, needing two websites open at the sane time while also having a communication software open on the second monitor can be a little difficult to manage. Thank you for making this app, it’s going to make my life so much easier!! My only suggestion at this point is to add a dice rolling feature like the one on the website.

Lots of potential!
Because this app is still in early development, my rating is based on the quality of what’s there, not what they’re still working on implementing. I love that they finally made an easy way to access character sheets on mobile (the website worked fine, but it was still more of a hassle than just going to an app). The features they’ve added so far are great. I can do most of the essential things in the app, and there’s an easily accessible pop up for the website that lets you do everything else. Once this app is finished I’m sure it will be a great way to manage my characters. In addition to implementing all of the regular character sheet stuff, something I would like to see added would be access to my campaigns, so I can see my friends’ characters in the app too.
