iPhone App - Power Card Viewer

[skaveng3r]

I like Zlorf's idea, and would add that it might be nice to have an option of entering some basic stats (but not manditory) and then filling in some of the data, so you would see +5 vs AC rather than Str vs AC.

other than copyright issues, i would worry about power drain due to keeping the phone on all the time, and the annoyance of turning it on every few min, after it's auto-off'd, to check something.

Thank you all for your responses. I wanted to post a follow up and let you all know that things are progressing well.

It's definitely still early, but you can check out the inprogress work at:
DnD 4e Power Cards Index

If any developers are interested, all of the code is open source and contributions would be appreciated!
wireframe's power-card-viewer at master — GitHub

awesome, please continue

This is awesome. So you just go to the webpage to use it, or is this an actual application that you can download somewhere?

Traveon,
It's a plain old webapp. It's intended for use with an iPhone, but it works just fine with any web browser.

A *native* iPhone app may be unique, but it's not something I'm interested in at this time.

I can't speak for the developer, of course, but the webpage is a preview for the iPhone app. For an iPhone app to be made available, it must be approved by Apple first.

Thanks, I got it now. I put a direct link to it on my iPhone just a moment ago. It works great. Thanks for all the hard work, it's very nice looking as well.

Ah, clearly I misunderstood the intentions of the developer. Still, it's very cool and useful!
