App Profile: Party Initiative Tracker

Niap Terces

Rating: 3/5

Left a review before and it was wiped. Worst part about this app is it's all online based. Not onlne? Nope. Can't use. Don't want to have all your players log in, just want a DM initiative tracker? Nope. Want to have it persist between sessions? Nope. Online rooms time out, all your hard work, gone. Want to add a large group of entries that persist? Nope, can't do that. Want to create a bunch of presets. Sure ok, you can do that. But when you make changes to the entry it won't save. You will have to completely delete that entry and re-make it to get it to save as a preset. Want to have access to a large pool of colors to mark lots of different groups? Nope. We'll give you a small pool and leave out some primaries, just because. My first review was a lot more tactful, but nothing here is exaggerated or untrue. This is how it is. Don't waste your money. Developer reached out and replied, which was really nice. I feel bad about the negative review now, but while it isn't tactful, it isn't untrue. I did change it to 3 stars, and changed the title, for reaching out and communicating with me because I find that to be impressive and will happily raise it further if there are any positive changes in the future. In reply to your response: I'd used the app for a long time before I left this review. The timing out wasn't a one time thing. It happens every session. We play sessions every other Sunday and the room has never lasted until the next session. In reality though, you don't need the room to persist forever; what it really needs is a way to save so it can resume in the future. Anyway, thank you very much for your reply.

This app is easy and simple to use it’s really a great initiative tacker. We’ve saved so much time not having to erase and rewrite our initiative on a random whiteboard. I recommend this app to anyone who plays D&D and needs initial attacker. Or any other role playing game. I recommend color coding your characters as well so it’s easier to figure out who is who at first glance!

Great, simple tracker and would be 5 stars if it didn’t require the modifier to be a number between 1 and 20. If updated, I will change my score. Otherwise, it is a really awesome app.
