I’d like to preface my review by saying it is in no way referring to the PrismScroll team, and is only meant to be constructive criticism to make this app even better because I believe in their products. That said, I fear this app is really taking away what was so simple and effective about using PrismScroll and specifically the connection it had to PrismScroll DM. Especially since it is the only option for Android users. As a DM I am always looking for ways to quicken the process of searching for rules and increase immersion, and with this app you *should* be able to do that, however I feel the user interface and lack of cross compatibility causes this particular app to suffer in that regard. Let’s start with UI: The UI of this app is quite clunky compared to PrismScroll. While I know they are separate products, I believe the user interface could have remained at the very least similar to that of PrismScroll. It would make the ability for players to help each other find things within the app run much smoother between different types of devices. Cross Compatibility: This one suffers the most. I would gladly pay to make things easier for my players, and myself, and have done so quite often in fact. The issue here is that with the lack of compatibility with the PrismScroll DM app or at the very least an export to PDF feature, as a DM I’m left with no reason to use this app over something else like D&DBeyond. I would really really love to see more integration for this app with other apps you’ve also made. I feel that is what made your system special. Overall I feel that this app was a downgrade from what was great about PrismScroll. I believe if you had expanded on PrismScroll and given it an Android adaptation that also allowed syncing with PrismScroll DM, you would’ve had a gold mine on your hands. I’d also like to say I can see your team forcing me to amend my review with some work. I believe in your apps, and that’s why I took the time for this review. Once you bring what was good about PrismScroll to Android in a more attainable and connected way, you’ll have my vote for PrismScroll Phoenix.

App is sub par. Doesn’t have features for all game systems as it suggests. Lacks automated features that character managers have. There’s better options that support multiple game systems. The idea of going to third party servers like discord, etc. to download pirated content is shady and is a hard no from me.
