DnD Buddy
Player Tools: -Supports creating characters from scratch-Exported from D&D Insider online (4E) or even exported from the old software version-Choose items, feats, spells from integrated libraries-Dice rollers
DM Tools:-Combat Tracker/Initiative/Encounter Tracker-View multiple Characters at same time (Party Viewer)-Build campaigns with maps and encounters-Add creatures straight from Monster library

This app is optimized for both tablets and handheld screens (it automatically chooses the tablet version if your screen size is larger than 6"). Get the HD and mobile in one app (and install it on both).
This app is far less than the cost of one RPG book. Invest in me please? I'd like to work on this more and I hope you would like to sponsor me a bit. If you look at this apps history, you'll see in a short period, I've had many significant upgrades. I'm an independent developer: help me raise a new generation of gamers that love roleplaying and Dungeons & Dragons games as much as we do!
What's coming next?Coming to Player Tools:-Import libraries from Excel spreadsheets... want more spells, feats, or magic items? Easy import.-Level up your characters and have the app guide you through it-More prestige classes coming
Coming to DM Tools:-NPC Generator-Campaign maps with interactive encounters links
Feedback?I obviously can't test on all devices but I'm quick to fix things if you can guide me a bit. If you want to take part in sending me bugs, go to this twitter handle:

I bought in to this ages ago, and even exchanged email with the dev who said that this would be finished up (as parts do not work). The concept is sound, it looks nice, but over priced for something that became a forgotten project. Don't waste your money.
A nice and easy interface to work with, and easily the cleanest .dnd4e reader I've seen. However the monster library and encounter tracker seem to be based on the 3.5/Pathfinder systems for now, which means a bit more legwork for 4e encounters. However, if DnDinsider item support is on it's way, I am hoping this will include a 4e monster library/encounter system as well.
I haven't gotten a great deal of time to play around with this app but I can already tell that the features it boasts will be extremely handy in my future sessions. As a DM, the monster library and combat tracker are incredibly useful and should allow me to expedite the sometimes tedious combat that DnD is known to have these days. The developer is still working and adding to the app and is incredibly responsive to inquiries. I highly recommending giving this app a shot!
But so far just good. Doesn't seem to be getting any more development. It's useable but I wouldn't pay for it again if I knew it wasn't being supported any more. Also, would love to see a way to export/print the sheet.
This app is on its way to becoming something amazing, it just needs some fixes and some stuff added. It also doesn't fit well on my HTC 1 I would like to email you and maybe go through some ideas. Awesome app. :)
Crashes and loses character access constantly. Had promise but a waste of money.
Importing of 4e char was easy. Did not grab all the info that the char generator provided. Spells, feasts etc should be completely separate from pathfinder.
Reading the comments I had high hopes for this app but I want to warn any potential buyers. Many functions advertised don't work at all, the encounter tracker is just bugged to the point of not working, and every time I attempt to work on my characters it crashes. The guy seems very hardworking at updating this but until I find it working to a decent standard I can't justify telling others to buy it although I do think it is worth investing your money in so that he can have more funds to use towards developing. i would love to help out in any way i could but for now i just can't call it a justified purchase
Kept crashing at the beginning, and was very frustrated. Then finally it worked, and it's actually pretty sick.
I have a hcg and my phone only loads 156 monsters I'm stuck in the middle of the a section fix or tell me how and I'll give 5 stars i play 3.5
It has potential but as is it is useless On my phone, Xperia z. If any of it worked it would be better. Keep trying Big guy and I'll keep it installed
, though still in need of optimization. Has a lot of features, though some lists load slowly and other features are still unavailable.
As it stands it has potential BUT not usable. It is no longer being actively developed. Last update was from December 2013!
Very interesting app! Will come in handy with building my next campaign. One request if its possible, could you search for monsters via type and CR than name? Then I could replace one of my bookmark.
I've only just started browsing through the functionality, but noticed that DR for electrical and sonic damage are missing on the Pathfinder characters.
One thing I would love to see are fully filled out character ability cards. Overall, I think it has a lot of potential, and it costs less then a cheap meal.
I bought this in hopes of it being a good app, but getting abit deadlines that stuff was promise and last update was over 6 months ago
I find it awkward to use with my Samsung Galaxy S4.
Did a fantastic job, happy to spend the 5 bucks for this. I am hoping you add an option sometime in the future for classes to automatically add/subtract the correct skills for 3.5. This would be a nice feature. Thanks again!!!
A good app if you are playing d&d3, 3.5, or pathfinders, but I couldn't use anything from 4e. It would be better if it could access 4e.
Great app, but unstable
A handy app for 4e. Is it true it hasn't seen an update on almost a year though :-O
Great app but having trouble with screen resizing other than great app.
sooo its a good starting out app that gives a lot of features and options that other apps wont. but the main purpose of downloading this app is for the monster manual for 4e and all the monsters is for 3.5 and thats frustraiting. kinda stuck on the decision of keeping the app or getting a refund.
