Hot tip: use Character Craft for your digital character sheet!
-
I used to use Fight Club 5e to track my character, but that hasn’t been updated in a long time. I recently found another app that’s in active development, and I’m becoming a big fan!
It’s called Character Craft and it has a version for Android, iOS as well as a web version(!).
And where on DnD Beyond you have to pay for any other sources, here you can just load in a set of XML files that you get here: https://github.com/vidalvanbergen/FightClub5eXML
And that should get you all you need. Of course, the downside is that this is not FOSS. But at least the developer is very active and responds very quickly to bug reports and feature requests.

They also mention it in their docs, but there’s no link to it…
EDIT: Found it! Its only available on Desktop

I love it when they ask for a credit card first thing to create an account.

But the premium parts aren’t available in the web site?

Even better when you need it on each platform (especially for easy character sync), and no option to even use it in a browser if you pay for it

Huh? I never had to give any credit card information to create an account. Where are you seeing this?

Are we talking about the same app? I can use it in my browser no problem

I have never had any of the parts I use not work in the browser
Perhaps some of the DM tools? I haven’t tried using those, yet.

>It prompted me to make an account and that’s when it asked for credit card info. Apparently the sync requires purchase, but it looks like it can be used without that functionality.

Oh, for sure. In fact, you can export your characters and import them again on other devices, if you don’t want to make an account. I use Android and never had any credit card request pop up, maybe that’s an iOS thing?
But, yeah, the only function of an account is to enable sync between devices… As far as I know.

You can use it but it immediately had certain functionality not available in browser when going to it.
Along with needing to pay per device type for those features leaves poor taste when considering using
