I love this app, it does what I need for the most part and lets me create custom sheets without getting in my way. I play a lot of less popular ttrpgs (Mechwarrior 2e, EotE, Fudge, etc) so being able to create a custom digital sheet from a pdf is a godsend. The main improvement I'd love to see is the option to remove the colors from input fields when editing a sheet as a player. I have a great custom character sheet but it's covered in big ugly red/gray/blue boxes and really takes away from the experience. I love the simple equations you can create to auto calculate basic things like saving rolls. It would be awesome of you could dynamically set a value based on the contents of another field, but that's asking for a lot. The functionality right now lets me create 90% automated sheets and that is awesome on the go. Thanks for creating this it has become an essential part of my GM and player toolkit!

I love the idea for this app. However, in its current state, it’s hard to recommend it. I tried it out hoping to take all my favorite character sheets and, with time and effort, make them work digitally. However, even the default built in sheets feel cluttered due to the big opaque colored rectangles present wherever you want to put a text box, and when I try to use a sheet, I found the way the screen immediately zoomed and snapped away to move the text box I’m typing in to the top left corner jarring and inconvenient. The functionality is also in my opinion FAR too limited. With the only 4 options being a single line text box, a multi line text box, a toggle-able button, and an image, it lacks any option to utilize more advanced tools to make it match up with non-custom character sheet apps like the ability to create a numerical box you could add or subtract from, tie values together so changes to one are reflected in another, or set defaults to instantly reset a characters health and the like. I’m torn, because while I love the idea and think with some improvements this app could be a game-changer, in its current state I can’t recommend it over a PDF editor to somebody looking to use their favorite custom character sheets or build their own on iOS, and I can’t recommend it over other character sheet apps to somebody looking for a functional digital character sheet.

I was really looking for an app that would allow me to make character sheets for other RPGs that were not 5e, pathfinder, Starfinder etc. As I tend to branch out to other RPGs, such as RISUS, OVA and etc. Of course the problem with finding apps forsaking character sheets for those is impossible as they lack the popularity to get their own apps. However when I heard about this app and the fact you could create any type of character sheet for any type of game, I was excited but skeptical. I jumped right into making a template for a RISUS character sheet, using an image of a RISUS character sheet template. To my surprise I was able to make a character sheet just like the original RISUS character sheet! The level of customization and detail you can put into the character sheets is incredible and met my relatively simple needs. I am going to try and make a more complicated sheet next from OVA and look forward to making that work as well. With all the customization options for creating easily translatable character sheets, I see myself using this app for a long time to come!
