Those of you who have been using the D&D Beyond Player Tools App are all set! Soon you’ll see all new functionality and useful tools! If you used our DDB reader app, you'll need to migrate over to the new app.

Thank you very much.
Yeah ! Bravo !
Is there any plan in the future for allowing people who are DMing games to see the character sheets of their players in the app? Or anything about campaigns in general?
It's really the only reason in my PbP games I need to go to the full webpage as everything else I need to lookup has been consolidated really well.
Thanks for a great update either way.
Loving the app a lot! Two suggestions I have is making an option to toggle between list mode or a grid mode in the library and picking how many books per row you want to display. Never thought I would love that so much from the original reader app. Second piece of feedback is related to the first in that in the library section it would be great if it could save your preferences. So currently after hard closing the app if you’ve set it to owned or downloaded or anything other than all it goes back to all by default. If you added a grid mode having it save that preference and the tab you like to keep your library on would be amazing.
They’ve mentioned a DM’s focused update to things is down the road but currently they need to work on parity between the sheets. I’m pretty sure that’s how they phrased it in the last update video but go check it out and know for sure just in case.
I was so excited for this ... and now I realize that you need 13.0 on iOS and am sad.
Regarding DM being able to preview other characters:
@Trexdrew Exactly as you said! Thank you!
Thank you - noted.
Thanks for the heads-up! <3
I don’t see how to level up an existing character
Love having everything in one place, but man alive do I hate the list view in Library. Four books on screen at a time? Yikes. Please either add a compact list view or a grid view (or better yet, both).
When will you add a light theme to the whole app? You know, so I can actually use it without literally hurting my eyes? And I don't mean aesthetically, I do mean literally, my eyes start to water up and hurt after 5 minutes of usage of your app...
It’s pretty standard now for new apps to honour system wide light/dark mode settings. I’m hoping they haven’t painted themselves too far into a corner here that it’ll be a lot of work to retrofit that.
Nice, i was excited for the Update.
One Tip I didn't see here you can export your old bookmarks, when you click on your profile in the top left corner.
Since they haven't added that since the app has been out, and even the listings that seems to be practically taken out from the reader app has lost its ability, I'm less and less convinced they will ever get to introduce a normally readable theme.
THANK YOU! This worked really well when I was playing with limited connectivity the other day.
Which is actually mind-boggling considering how important accessibility is and what a great tool this could be if it was built with that in mind. I’m lucky enough that I’m fine with the current theme – and I think the app is amazing in a lot of other respects. Just seems like they could have had a home run with this.
Edit: I just checked on my iPhone and this app actively totally negates Smart Invert, it looks unchanged in that mode – why would they do that? You can use Classic Invert but then all the images look terrible.
Thank you!! So excited about this!
Wow, it sounds like this app was designed to be hard on some people's eyes.
Nice work by the team - thanks!
Can I request that the option to filter content in your library as OWNED actually does that. I also see all the stuff Shared with me. I see a valid use case for the middle ground on that.
