Used to be 5 star app, inability to push updates via google play is a mystery. The base app is still great. I changed phones and I cant install any of the updates now. I did what you had in the warning. Uninstalled the app and tried to install the downloaded update. Missing security certificate error. Installed the base paid app from play, then tried to install the update. App with the same name already exists error. I seriously hope its not that the software is tied to the device you originally bought it on...
The free version impressed me and I was looking forward to easily navigating Ultimate Equipment offline....Nope. The paid version is missing: - Advanced Races - Ultimate Euipment - Ultimate Campaign - Mythic Adventures - NPC Codex , all which have entries in the FREE version but are blocked by a paid version notice as a teaser. Very disappointed. I wont be refunding in hopes of a fix for this, but currently I cannot recommend to others.
Update - 09/2015: Hasn't been updated in a long time, missing alot of books and content, despite what the program says. As of today, I am unable to even load what content it did have. No support, not working, so no reason to keep. Uninstalling. Don't waste your money.
First, I would rate this app 5/5 if it were not outdated. This is the best app going for getting mobile access to the Pathfinder PRD. The layout is fantastic, it's easily readable, the hyperlinks work great, and best of all it downloads the entire PRD text onto your phone (so you don't need mobile data or wifi to browse the app). That said, the app hasn't been updated to include the Advanced Class Guide, Bestiary 4, or Technology guide. In the past, the developer had promptly updated the app and sent notifications to users via email, however this has not been the case this time. The attempt I made to contact the developer via email through the Google Play store has fallen upon deaf ears. Therefore, until the app is updated, I have to give it one star instead of the 5 it would otherwise deserve.
I GM quite a lot and this app is indispensable for quickly looking up anything from the Core books. My only wish, and I'm not even docking stars for it, is that Ultimate Equipment would be included. But the usefulness of this app outweighs missing missing a single book.
I am also not seeing anything above 1.3.0. I have manually reinstalled and redownload four times as stated in the warning. The published PRD is online and would defeat the purpose of purchasing an offline app. I also have the ISO version and have no problems, but I would much rather have access to this wonderful app on my phone. Otherwise than that it works fine. I am sure that all of the GM's and players that use this app would appreciate anything you could do to rectify this problem. Thank you !!!
Was my favorite application for years. Will go back up to five stars after the developer starts updating content. When I followed the link for an up to date version, I couldn't use it. I got a pop up saying that it was an unlicensed application. Masterwork tools is better at the moment.
Really useful, works on all my phones and tablets, great for looking up the rules on the fly. Well worth the money 12/4/13 Won't update to newest books without a hassle, still very awesome.
This app is incredibly useful, but doesn't have all of the content it claims. Adv. Races Guide and Ultimate Equipment don't show on the droid version, but do in the Apple versions. 4/5 for use and functionality which helps mitigate some of the missing content. The droid version won't update past 1.3.0.
Love this app have it on my tablet and phone and have told all my fellow gamers about it. Easy to use and pass around the table. I find my self handing my device to others as they try to thumb through a book. Helped my group get a lot more accomplished during limited settings.
Good reference for when playing dnd. However recently I noticed there was an update to the advanced races and I haven't gotten the uodate at alll yet.
Having multiple tabs as well as an easy to browse index is simply necessary for me nowadays. As good as having the books, crunch wise
Best PF RPG (PRD) app there is for all of the hardcover books... the only problem is that the author apparently stopped updating the app after Mythic Adventures, and I don't know if there are any plans to update this app anymore... 5 star app... just now ~ 2 years since the last update means I have to leave it at 3 stars... (back to 5 if there are any signs of life, ever...)
I have been using this app for a few years now and I have stopped reaching for my books. Its search function is good which comes in handy when I need a quick rule while playing PFS.
Very much like other CRB references, with two differences: has a search function (good!), and has a bookmark function (sounds good), but it doesn't work at all on my tablet or cellphone. I try to add a bookmark. The app says it's added, but when I go to view bookmarks, it isn't there. I paid for this; it should work.
This is one of the greatest pathfinder apps in existence. It has all the base source material and had made our sessions so much easier. Idk what I'd do without it!
Great app, the search function is right on and all of the content is there. Only complaint is thebattery drain that it causes, other than that it's perfect.
Everything works well, no pictures but thats not really required. With updates were were quicker.
As a new DM this provides me with quick and easy access to almost everything I need. Wish it had the Advanced Race guide, but none the less this up deserves 5 stars and anyone playing Pathfinder needs to purchase this.
That app on the apple site includes more of the new material but overall it's great to have st the game table.
Great ui and support, I don't even carry my books anymore unless I need one that hasn't been added. Keep chipping away at that list and I'll stay 5 star happy. Thanks!
Alot of content has been added since last update and it really should be updated.
I like it, but don't believe it had automatic updates. Also, I have tried updating this via the directions, but either I lose the app completely or it only shows the base model without the update. Disappointed.
It's got all the information you need, but certain items you look up just take you to a single mega page with everything on it. For example, clicking on a metamagic feat just takes you to one giant page with every feat on it.
This is perhaps one of the easier Pathfinder rpg databases that is available on the App Store. It is also one of the most complete that is available for my device what runs Android 2.3...
I have been using this app for over a year now and am still impressed at the dedication of the designer. My favorite thing is all the hyper links that save me ridiculous amounts of time.
This has got to be the most used app at the game table. Don't know what I did without it. Especially like the recent update as closing tabs was frustrating before.
More time playing less to e trying to look it up. Achievement unlocked with this! And then failed hard when he stopped updating what was the strongest app for pathfinder... Wish I could get my money back!
Been using this for years (on android and iPad version also) please update the new stuff in the PRD.
As a DM, it is important to have information available when in the middle of a game. It is even better to be able to look it up at a moments notice, and this app does that. Edit: After finally getting the app to update, I am waiting for any and all future updates that will come down the pipe. A very handy and useful app to have at the table instead of a pile of books.
