iPhone App - Power Card Viewer

Very cool as is. I liked some of the posters' ideas, such as an app that would allow you to mark the ones you have available, then temporarily set them as used. It would be great to use this at the table.
 

This has to be the best thing to ever happen to my iPhone. I've been craving dnd4e apps on my phone. I've fantasized about a plethora of incredibly useful tools - everything from power cards to enemy stats, character sheets, reference sheets... oh, man now I'm foaming at the mouth.

Anyway, thank you so much for this! You said you were still working on it, but roughly how complete is it in regards to content?

And in case you're taking feature requests... the search is wonderful, but from a usability aspect, having a button to change the sort order (from power level to say, alphabetically, and back again) would help find things quicker. That way you could easily find powers based on class/power name, and it would be more single-thumb friendly than searching by name.

Again, simply awesome app. Thanks!!
 

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

That's BRILLIANT!
The only issue I'm having is with IE... while on Firefox the webapp works like a charm, on IE7 it has lots of impagination/functionality issues :.-(
 

Is there anything the community can do to help speed this along? Perhaps typing up powers so you can cut and paste?

Has anyone tried viewing the Compendium powers via iPhone? how is it?
 

@emass,
sorry to hear that it doesn't work in IE. Since it's intended as an iPhone app, i'm not too worried about it right now. It would be nice to support other browsers though, but for now I would recommend downloading firefox.

@Hadrian,
This entire application is opensource, so if there are things that people would like to enhance, I'd say go for it. for right now, i'm focusing on polishing the core user experience, and I'll be working on the search functionality for a bit.

Next up is hopefully user entered powers and adding the ability to create your own "power card deck" with just the powers your character uses.
 


This is cool.

I've been interested in iPhone dev but just haven't crossed the right idea/project.... I may have to tinker.
