[QUOTE="theRogueRooster, post: 7656693, member: 4521"] You can send them feedback from the app by tapping the cog in the lower right of the initial screen and then tapping Send E-mail. Looks like the email address is: [email]lionsden.contact@gmail.com[/email] Personally, I'm really enjoying the app. I'm running it on an iPad 2. I like the layout and how easy it is to access spell info and such. It automatically tallies the weight of your equipment and you can create custom trackers for keeping up with class specific goodies such as superiority dice or bardic inspiration. You can also keep track of conditions and any bonuses or penalties that may occur and the app automatically applies them to the appropriate stats. All that together makes the app a better alternative to paper for me. I don't find creating a character to be any more time consuming than paper, and probably quite a bit less. One thing to think about: if you want to have immediate access to spell info or other character features during play without accessing the PHB, you still have to write it out somewhere, whether it's in an app or on a paper document. The DM app is a solid initiative tracker that gives you easy access to character information as you need it. Outside of that, I don't know that it's set up to manage an entire campaign on its own. I get the feeling its purpose is to simply manage groups of encounters instead. I'm planning to use it to run HotDQ and I suspect I'll be creating a new campaign entry for each chapter. There's always room for improvement. I'd like a way for the data I enter (spells, class features, etc) to be more permanent, instead of attached at the character level, so that I would never have to type it in more than once. You can copy info from any other character that exists, but if you delete the only character with a particular bit of info, it's gone. All in all, I think it's very well done and was well worth the money. -tRR [/QUOTE]
