Fast Play Initiative Tracker for Android
This app is not intuitive, BUT it does exactly what I want after messing with settings. It lets me place each individual at exactly where I want
I have rolled a hundred times in a row and none of the characters in the lineup have ever rolled over 15... Even with+6 initiative.
Great app. Does just what i want.
Maybe it just that designed to work for older editions but as a 5e dm I would much prefer if the numbers went higher, I've had players with initiative close to 30 and adding monsters in a few rounds into combat having exact initiative numbers would be preferable.
I wont let me add an initiative bonus higher than 10. At the level we are at in our party our initiative is much higher than 10.
I just ran a table of 8 players with an initiative slot for enemies and another for NPCs. It worked well, but a way to track health would've been awesome. I also noticed there wasn't a tutorial or a way to save monsters for future encounters. There's also the issue of initiative ties between characters with different modifiers. It doesn't naturally sort the higher modifier over the lower on initiative ties. Just some ideas to improve the app I already enjoy :)
I love this app, I would give this app 5 stars if it only tracked whos turn it currently was. Like highlighted the player or monster and have a button for "next" or somthing. It's not that big of a deal, I just made a conscious effort to remember. Although I did forget once or twice. Lucky my players helped me out. I was going to use a lil flat mark, or a dime or somthing next time. Just wish it tracked current turns. Please consider adding this. :) thanks again for the awesome app!
Does exactly what it promises, the ability to add bulk monsters is awesome. My only wish is that a future version lets you track status effects.
There are no instructions on how to use the app, so I've been trying to figure it out by trial and error. Also, you mentioned in other reviews that you had updated the app to enable the user to add initiatives in manually (enabling the character players to roll their own initiatives). However, I cannot figure out how to add in the numbers manually. If this is a feature, HOW do I do it?
Simple is usually great, but this app is bare bones. Have to type in everything and can't input your own initiative. No way I've seen to save data between encounters.
App crashes when you try to add new monsters after only one use.
It does what it says, roll a new initiative each round. There is even a switch in settings to not reroll. What I wish it had though was a way to manually input a character's init, our move them around in the order in the event of a delay or readied action
Would be perfect if it supported delayed actions.
I wont let me add an initiative bonus higher than 10. At the level we are at in our party our initiative is much higher than 10.
A stunning work of pure genius, unrivaled in human history.
Would've been a great app if only it allowed you to customize the template and save/catalog monsters for future encounters.

App does more or less what I want. I don't want to input the stats of the creatures just keep track whose turn it is. In that aspect it's easy to input bulk monsters and easy to adjust initiative. SO far I've had to figure out the buttons on my own. *Holding down a name and dragging adjusts the initiative *Tapping the number allows you to cycle through initiative/blank/hold/dead So far I have not found any way to actually track whose turn it is on. A bit of information on it's functionality would go a long way.
