RPG Scribe App Reviews

Ive made several reviews on this app, and the devs are great acting on the advice of the consumers, but there are still some points I would love to see implemented in this app. 1) Custom Icons for Item Creation: This was another big one for me. There should be more options for icons when creating items. First of all, make all the icons currently in the app available, including racial and domain icons. Then, if youre up to it, add more icons! Miscellaneous icons, just to add to the options of the user. Also, allow the user to choose icons when creating races, domains, classes, etc. 2) Custom Weapon Damage: You can now customize a weapons damage, individually per character. However, there is still no option for complicated die formulas when actually creating the weapon in the database. 3) Customizable Stats for Non-Custom Entities: I really wanted this one because it mean that as a DM I could tweak weapon stats and customize existing classes to suit my game. There should be an option to customize (and save) non-custom entities in the database with an option to "Reset [them] to Default" individually. Sadly, they havent gotten around to this one yet :/ 4) Correct Money Weight and Money Storage Option: First of all, the money weight is wrong. It should be 50 coins = 1 pound, but instead for some strange reason 50 coins = .1 pounds in this app. Totally wrong, and Im sure it was just an oversight, but it ought to be fixed nonetheless. Secondly, there ought to be some sort of bank option, so that you can store money and not have it weight you down. 5) Custom Class Features: There ought to be a way to add custom class features and abilities when creating a custom class. As of right now, you have to add class features as either spells or feats, which is not ideal. Altogether, I am still waiting for: Custom Icons for Item Creation, Custom Weapon Damage, Customizable Stats for Non-Custom Entities, Correct Money Weight and Money Storage Option, Custom Class Features. Now, I am aware that my review probably sound too critical, but I want to make it clear that I love this app! I really appreciate the hard work that the developers put into this app, and I simply want to do my part to make it as awesome as possible, by submitting these thorough reviews. Thanks, developers! See you next version ;)

No offense but this app is in desperate need of an update. I really like it and want to use it, but its so outdated. Some of the skills and such it makes you chose arent even around in d&d 4E

Ive used this app for all of my 3.5 characters, and its absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend it for anyone who is still playing 3.5.

Well its a good app the best iPhone app for DND character sheets but it very limiting and is only using core stuff its hard to do stuff with so I would still use a paper copy

Takes all of the guesswork out of character creation and playing. I really do enjoy this app. Hoping for 5.0 support.

This app is not what I thought it was (score keeper for D&D). I do not have a use for this app and wish apps had demos to try before buy. However, the app seems to offer great selection regarding character creation for RPG.

Please! Please! I love this app! Its beautiful, fluid, smart enough to not let you make mistakes unless youre 100% sure you do. I just NEED this app to at the very least support Pathfinder accurately; 5th Edition would be amazing, but Ill settle for Pathfinder. There is seriously no other app I can find that even does a quarter of what this app does. You could take over the budding market of table top gaming of you supported the two really popular formats right now.

So extremely limited that I could only select 1 of the 4 skills I needed to. Contains too much of some irrelevant things and not enough of the crucial ones. I cannot believe I just threw away $2 on this crap app.

Made character sheets useless and can be a DMs best friend. Keeping track of npcs becomes a snap. Get it now!

This app used to be great. However the new version is very crash prone. Its hard to do much without it crashing. This bug needs to be fixed ASAP.

This seems like it could be. Great app if it wouldnt keep crashing every 30 seconds when I try to use it. Please fix this.

This is a great app if you play 3.5. Its kinda hard to adapt it for pathfinder but its do-able. Would love to see a pathfinder version! Either way, its a great app for a quick reference to your characters abilities, spells, or feats. Definitely worth getting.

I love the app and have been working on new races and classes for my game but it would help a lot if it was possible to use 5e rules as an option. Also the app already costs money why add an in app purchase

This app is one of the better D&D apps in my opinion, Ive used it for over a year now and still use the same app for all of my D&D characters. The app does a great job on handling the creation of characters, keeping track of all the standard character sheet information, and other helpful things like carry weight (including the rules that apply to it), and ammo + HP + spell + psionic power points (if you get the expansion for psionics) tracking. It also features a wonderful database containing all sorts of information on classes, races, feats, spell, items, weapons, and armor - all of which can be customized with a full system built-in for just such things, meaning, youre able to add in anything you need with a unique description/enhancment/or special effect. Another nice thing the database does is the offline information for just about all the content. Its nice to have when youre without data for awhile and need information on a specific spell or class, it also features an online version of the information for everything, though, I believe its just about the same thing as the offline version so theres not much reason to use it. While this app is great, there are very minor issues with it in my opinion which is the reason I didnt give it five stars. For one, and probably the most annoying, is that there is very few item. The list of item spans to about to about 28 things including food, rope, bedrolls, holy water, and alchemist fire. Beyond that, youre required to add in any other things you end up acquiring during a campaign. Another annoying aspect of this app is just about the same thing, there are also no magical item, weapons, or armor built-in. That part you also have to do, but the redeeming part is that youre able to recreate just about all the magical items in the books into the app. I find the magical item part very minor because you dont often get magical items, so its not much of a big deal to put in one or two magical items. And one last minor problem is that when you make items or new races, there are a very limited amount of icons you can give it (races dont actually get special icons, the ones you make get question mark icons). Oh! and sometimes you cant see the full description you give an item, weapon or armor set. Overall, the issues I have with the app are very minor compared to how much this app does right, for people who would like an aid for character sheets, or would like to have their character with them at all times, this app is splendid.

This app is great, the only thing I dont like is that you can not delete any pre-recorded data . This app is jam packed with data however I want to simplify the games I DM. If the creators can add a delete function that would be excellent. I would suggest at the bottom of each preset have a delete column button which removes that column from said list and at the main page of the app at the bottom as well have a "trash" button. This way any and all pre-recorded data will never be gone for good allowing accidents to be fixed smoothly. If they can make this happen somehow, I would have to rate 5/5. This app it 100% worth the couple bucks they ask for.

The app has an amazing set up for D&D 3.5 gaming. It allows immense customization with weapons and armor and also allows you to be able to quickly change your attributes or skills or resistances or anything else that you need to be changed, and to do it instantly. It even allows you to cross class and it will do all of the math and processing for you so you dont have to worry about a thing. HOWEVER. I think my biggest complaint about this app is that it doesnt allow support for animal companions (which is huge for Druids and Rangers) as well as not being able to customize a class with spells yet. Notice I said yet. The company does release updates (so they arent a dormant company)and the hope is that they will soon release the update that holds the animal companion awesomeness in it along with the class customization with spells. Overall an amazingly fantastic app that will do all that you need it to. Happy hunting!

This is the best character sheet app out there. It takes all the confusion out of level ups and lets you focus solely on the campaign. It even lets you create custom classes, races, spells, and items. I couldnt live (in D&D) without this helpful app.

The app seems to have a lot of good stuff in it, but it doesnt have Tieflings and Warlocks out of the box.

This app is good, because it covers all of the basics one will ever need to know for one who is just starting D&D. But there is more content that could be added to this that could make it a lot better.

I bought and downloaded this so I could make my own rpg game in a fantasy realm me and my friends made up. Sure we had all the classes from world of Warcraft but we are also forced to use those "D#" dice. Sure we can also make our own races and classes but those stupid D&D races and classes clutter everything up, there should be an option on if we want D&D settings for this rpg app, but till then, change the name to "D&D scribe."
