I've spent the past few months building an android tablet and phone app to create a quick reference for Pathfinder using the PSRD as the base. I'm getting ready to release it (for free), but I want to get some wider feedback from people outside my gaming group.
The reference is a tool to give you searchable access to the full PSRD:
Other Features:
The application's home page is here. You can also go to it's Github repo page.
For tablets, it has been tested on the Transformer Prime, Nook Color, Kindle Fire and the OG Galaxy Tab. For phones, it has been tested on the Galaxy Nexus. I have verified that it functions on android 2.2, 2.3, 3.0 & 4.0. For Nook Color/Kindle Fire until I get it into the Barnes & Noble/Amazon markets, you probably will only be able to install it on rooted devices with the setting "Allow installation of non-Market apps" enabled.
So, without further ado, if you have a device this will work in, please, Download the application and let me know what you think. (for non google play installs, you can install it from here.
Note: I do not have any IOS devices, nor do I have a mac to code on to port this to the iPad/iPhone. It /is/ an open source project, so I would welcome someone who wanted to take this to those devices, but I don't have the resources to.
EDIT: The application is now available from google play. The application is also now a tablet and phone app.
The reference is a tool to give you searchable access to the full PSRD:
- Core Rulebook
- Advanced Player's Guide
- Ultimate Magic
- Ultimate Combat
- Gamemastery Guide
- Bestiary 1-3
Other Features:
- Allows you to create bookmark collections. For example, you can bookmark certain passages that you want quick access to as a GM, and create another collection for a specific character, giving you quick access to the rules that are important for running that character.
- Has 22000 rule snippets allowing you to access over 14000 discrete rule topics. Including: 718 Feats, 1266 Spells, 975 Monsters, 44 Classes and a ton more.
- Allows you to hone in the passages that matter for what's going on in game now. Every title in every article is a link that lets you just see/bookmark that section.
- Powerful and fast search lets you find the rule you need, quickly.
