About Search for DnD Compendium

This application is no longer supported and is provided as-is. I have moved from 4e to Pathfinder.

Update as of 3/21/2013: the email address in the "About" menu will no longer work. I've been getting too much spam from marketers harvesting the Android Market.

PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE POSTING NEGATIVE COMMENTS ABOUT REQUIRING A DDI SUBSCRIPTION.
The application is free. This connects to wizards.com; therefore requires a DDI (D&D Insider) account. A DDI account is not free.

Browse the Dungeons and Dragons (D&D 4e) Compendium.

Android T&C won't allow me to store passwords, sorry.

Searches include classes, feats, glossary, items, monsters, powers, races, rituals, and traps.

If you are only getting a link, you are not logged in.

Known issue:
Sometimes the data shown when logged in is gibberish. This has been identified as a network error and is possibly related to Wifi vs. 3G. Please try connecting through an alternate network if this happens.

N70%
by N####:

I have a DDI account and was looking forward to using an app to supplement my books during games. However, I am unable to login to my DDI account as it keep requesting that I login to access everything in the Options Menu but does not give me said menu. I am therefore unable to use the app at all.

S70%
by S####:

No longer connects to DDI, so therefore no longer usable. Sad :(

S70%
by S####:

So I can't use the app unless I described to D&D Insider. So it takes it me to the link so I can. But there's no way to subscribe to it. I've been trying to describe so I can use this app. I've been trying for months and cannot use this app so I'm deleting it.

I70%
by I####:

This was great while I needed it. Now that the compendium is mobile phone compatible, and with the inclusion of ads, I am uninstalling.

D70%
by D####:

Lost a star for including ads in latest version. Unless there's going to be significant updates in the future it's unnecessary.

As a dm, being able to look up stuff on the fly is awesome. Search feature allows me to quickly find solutions if i dont have the specific book handy

Q70%
by Q####:

Awesome idea for the app, but every thing I look up needs a DDI account despite what it says. Great app if you have drive.

R70%

Log in credentials didn't save so I couldn't log in to access the full features. I did go through options to log in but saving and testing log in didn't work. But all the other features that I was able to use worked well.

Logged in but the app doesn't bring back any text. Nonfuctioning.

Q70%

I hate having to log in every time i do a search

Q70%
by Q####:

There are way better apps that are free. I would not pay for a subscription when o can get anOther app that does the same thing for free port I could just google it.

Update 1/20/15: no longer links to DDI account since the URL to access changed. Original review: Installed on both my phone (Samsung G3) and tablet (Nexus 7) and it works smoothly. Linking to my DDI account is smooth and I haven't had any issues with it throwing gibberish at me in either 3G or wi-fi usage. Please read through all of the description so you can see that you must have a separate DDI subscription to use this free software. Thanks for the time and effort!

Can't use unless u have a DDI. In the processes of uninstalling right now.

U70%
by U####:

If you have a DDI account, this works nicely. However, it requires you to constantly reenter (every 2-3 searches, it seems) your ddi password, which is very frustrating.

U70%
by U####:

what it did not tell you is that you need an active DDI subscription to use. bad form. EDIT: ok it says so in desc but it doesn't tell you a DDI cost any money.

U70%
by U####:

I guess i didnt know free meant the you had to pay money gor an account yo use it

U70%
by U####:

This is much easier/faster than just using the compendium in the browser. Thanks :)

U70%
by U####:

Just needs to remember my password between sessions. If I exit the app (or switch to another app) , I have to re-enter my password.

D70%
by D####:

Allow search by item slot, i.e. feet, hands, arms, neck, head. Also a list of all would be useful, especially for rituals. Maybe able to search by level and something else like weapon, item slot, or ritual would also be nice.

U70%
by U####:

Testing my login doesn't work until after I save it. Otherwise great, straightforward app.

U70%
by U####:

Using Samsung galaxy s3...and when I select an item, when it opens, all I get is a small window with " ï¿ 1/2 " shown...not sure if its just my phone, as other ratings suggest this works, but uninstalling and reinstalling didnt fix.

U70%
by U####:

Get efficient searches and easily read output. The only reason this isn't five stars is the password issue.

X70%
by X####:

Can it be moved to sd?

U70%
by U####:

This doesnt work at all. Wouldnt show me anything after I logged in my info. I feel like this might be a scam
