Yesterday I purchased some additional subclasses from various sources (SCAG, XGTE). I purchased these individually using the $1.99 pricing because I'm not currently interested in other content in these books.
The content is visible in the character manager like I expect, so the core is definitely working and there's no issue there. However, it's unclear and inconsistent to me how such content is visible on the site. Namely, when I open the website and go to Game Rules > Monk > Monastic Traditions, I can see the newly purchased content and read through it. This is very useful to me because it makes it easier to compare options and pick the one I want to use.
In the app, however, I am unable to view these newly unlocked options. If I navigate to Listings > Classes > Monk, the newly purchased monastic traditions do show up in the list, but when I click them it takes me to the purchase page of the relevant sourcebook.
It's confusing to me why I'm allowed to view this content on the website, but not in the app. I tried searching through the FAQs but couldn't find any explanation for why this is the case.
I’m not in a position to test it anymore, but I think that when I used to own just piecemeal elements of books here, I had the ability in the app to download the sourcebook it was from-except that all that downloaded was the content I purchased. So I’d suggest checking the library page of the app, set the filter to “all,” and see if downloading (part of) SCAG and XGTE is an option for you.
Thanks for the suggestion. I feel like I did that for an individual item I purchased before but now that's not the case. XGTE and SCAG now appear just like any other book I don't own and tapping them sends me to the marketplace page for that book.
