I've seen people use DnD Beyond character sheets on tablets, but I dont see anything that can help me get it on my IPad. Can someone help me? I want to be able to access, change, and interact with my character sheet on my IPad
Use Safari (or another browser app), log into DDB, and access your character that way. I do it all the time. It does require WiFi where you play. There are plans to add the character sheet to the DDB app for iOS and Android, and that will hopefully provide offline access when that feature is released In the app. For now, using a browser is the way to go.
thanks for the info on this. I am looking at getting the iPad pro and pencil 2 with the keyboard for use with DND Beyong on my campaign (just so I don't have to take the core books) and use my digital copies but I wasn't sure how well the iPad and pencil 2 would do.

I have a 10.5” iPad Pro, keyboard and pencil 1. I don’t actually use the pencil when using DDB, but there’s no reason one couldn’t.
But you can’t make a character on the ddb app. Please prove me wrong!!
On the separate app, no, not yet at least. But the website works well on iPads (and presumably on other tablets) and using the character sheet from the website on a tablet works well as long as one has wifi.
Sorry to comment on a slightly older thread, but I am SO disappointed in the iOS app. I’ve been using ddb for a while on my laptop, and it never occurred to me that the most basic aspects of the site would be unavailable on the app. Unless I’m just oblivious, it seems I can’t even access my own home brew content, which is crazy. That app is in need of a total tear down and replacement.
Another time, please start a new thread instead of necroing one this old. Have you tried accessing DDB with your browser on your iPad? That works great for me. Keep in mind that DDB is a web based service, so most of its service required internet access. The compendium app is designed for offline use. Another issue is that there are size limitations to mobile apps. So DDB is having to split up the offerings here into separate apps. There is now a compendium app and a character sheet app is in alpha. A

I am starting to think a surface pro might be a better option but we’ll see
