Squire - Character Manager for Android
Absolutely fantastic app. I recommend it to everyone I play with. I even have a few exported files to add in all the non-SRD options. However, I have noticed a few errors in some the races and features. The major issue is that you don't seem to have incorporated the errata (which has been added directly to the SRD). In addition you left off the Dwarf's Light Hammer proficiency. There are also typos in the Bard Expertise, Ranger Favored Enemy - Humanoid, and Halfling Lucky.
I really love the squire app but I just recently was looking through the players handbook and noticed a few Druid spells that are in the book are missing in app. Not sure if there are missing spells for other classes but hopefully you are able to add them in :)
I can't figure out how to create subclasses. I want to do an arcane trickster, but under rogue subclasses it only shows thief.
It's quick and easy love it for building characters just have issues with the filling the water skin and other items
Well thought out, but missing spells such as witch bolt and hex, you can add them in manually, but doesn't seem fair when everything else is automatic.
Excellent design. Fairly easy to learn and works well during play. Importing and exporting could be more flexible, but I see that's on the roadmap ☺
It trinks you into thinking that you can chose a bavkground but there is just Acolyte and other.
I would really like to see UA and other books contents added especially races and classes/sub classes but overall great app
Incredible app! Better than Orcpub with hugely customizable Homebrew options. Exactly what I was looking for to make a futuristic campaign :D
SUPER USEFUL
This is an A+ program for 5e character management. Definitely the fastest and easiest way to organize your characters by a long shot. The additional resources that aren't supplied through Squire are easy enough to find if you try hard enough. (Try Google)
Why did half the races and class archetypes vanish? On my phone it was good but now half the race subtypes are no longer available and the class archetypes simply vanished. I thought updates were suppose to make things better. Not take away half of the useful features
I love the app but on the galaxy 8 it doesn't have all the backgrounds. It only gives the options of acolyte and other. Stupid OLG
Great Setup and management
Pretty good for use
It is a great app but needs more archetypes and subraces, still worth the download. It also needs some updates for the D&D expansions such as Elemental Evil player's companion and the Sword Coast Adventurers Guide. Please keep up the good work either way!
Sorry for the lackluster review, but it has a good reason. Lately I've shown this app to some of my friends to try to use but there's been a slight problem. While my version includes all the backgrounds, subraces, sub-cladses and most other character options, my friends are having problems with their own versions. It seems that whenever they try to make a character, they only have access to the acolyte background, and if they're lucky, one subclass. So my question for the maker of this app is this: How can I fix this problem? Is it intentional? Why do I have access to everything and they don't? Can you help us? Thank you for your time and, and may the dice ever roll in your favor.
It's a great little app, it's just a shame you can't really expand it with the OGL restrictions.
Can't seem to find spells like thorn whip and feign death
amazing up, easy to manage multiple heroes and nice built in tools to roll heroes
This app is great and helps me keep track of everything. At first I was sad mine didn't have all the backgrounds my friend had but seeing as its licensing and not the app makers fault I'll get over it and just add it a few at a time. I love the idea of adding your own background and such makes it even easier to make your character extra special. I plan on saving up and getting the pro :)
It's all good, just lacking a thing or two now. I don't blame the maker or anything, I just can't give it 5 stars without some of this stuff. It does give you the option to add it, albeit tedious it does work. I'm hoping I can get the pro version so I can just import all the missing info.
Perfect 5. There ia no app as detailed and easy-to-use as this. I do however wish all the backgrounds were implemented. It's a bit of a pain to write each one in custom-made, but even with that tiny flaw, this is easily still a 5 star app. :D
Amazing app, easily the best out there, maybe not the prettiest but surely the most versatile. Good character generator an amazing backpack manager and everything is easy to use. Devs listen to user ideas and update constantly. == I have a request though, a way to completely clear the database or at least a button (can be well hidden) to clear each category, a delete button that works like the export button. I have added, renamed, rewritten, etc. many powers and other stuff and is hard to transfer to other devices when you have to check and click every single entry while importing. == Keep going! Amazing so far, and getting better!
It appears there's no way to edit or delete races you've added? Please tell me if I've made a mistake.
Yo too bad u got sued for it being free tho
Best dnd character manager app out there and I bet the pro version is better, sucks that I don't have money to spend on it :(
replaces several other resources. Roll your actions instantly with all pluses included.
The app is a great tool for most player characters
I love this app. Its my go-to. Now that I have a new phone and updated the app a lot of material has gone missing. From races, sub- races, classes, and arch types to feats and spells. I don't know what's happened and I know I can go in and manually add them. However I had fully planned on purchasing the pro version. But if this once great app now has this many bugs so dont know that ill be willing to spend the money.
This would easily get the full five stars from me, wasn't it for the minor things it's actually lacking. E.g. I'd like to be able to edit exported files in a text editor, for the ease of it, but the app then says the files "have been tampered with". This makes it extremely tedious to add bulk amounts of custom stuff, since the app tends to glitch occasionally and not save my progress, forcing me to rewrite everything. I'd also like to have a landscape view for the app. I have contacted devs through their site but have yet to get any response.
As paladin you can only choose the Oath of Devotion. What if I am feeling Vengeance?
Great job made it super easy to play
This app has been pivotal in helping create character concepts both from a thematic standpoint and from a mechanical standpoint. I say well done Dev team! The customization is virtually limitless. And the ability to copy paste makes life much easier when you are dealing with .pdf's or other text based platforms. Totally understand about the OGL issues but anything that helps players optimize builds while still having character stories line up helps the overall rpg experience exponentially. Many many thanks for this app!!!!
Has options when making your character. Let's you write your own background
Really good format. It's easy enough to add new races. The subclasses are a bit limited though. And there is only one background available. But it has the option to edit anything so it just takes some time to type out
Wonderfully creative app for any players needs. The ability to create basically anything from race, to spells, to items, to backgrounds really help me focus on my characters. Thank you Shane! Can there be customisable background color? Preferably for the equipment/items/spells section to differentiate certain potions, spells, and gear. It'd be easier on the eye.
I started off merely liking this app, and using it in conjunction with other apps and physical sheets. I almost never use sheets anymore. Though I still use a separate spell app, I use this for everything else. Love it. Can now use to help DM, too.
Grate for phones wasted screen space for tablet I have so much space doing nothing a more customized layout for tablets would be wonderful other than that no complaints
by R####:
There is only one background option. My rogue is definitely not an acolyte. Anyway to have more background options? I really like the pull down menus etc, just seems to be missing some entries.
