Search is either not working, or is incredibly slow. The rest of the app loads quickly enough, but nothing seems to want to load in the search (including the letters of my search term after the 2nd).
Searching for something, without any book selected, nothing loads and it starts to freeze on me. after a bit the work i typed shows up but still nothing in the search area. If i have a book selected while searching it populates a list just fine albeit a very poor list of found entries :). So search function in general needs to be looked at!
If I do a search, then select a search result, then tap the search icon (magnifying glass in upper right corner), I get a search screen with a text box that cannot be activated for entry. I can, however, select any recent search result that is already listed.
If I leave the app to go to my browser and then come back it takes a long time to open ever though it’s running in the background. Not sure if it’s trying to verify anything but the logo swirls for 30 seconds before I can get back in
also it’s hard to navigate the books I don’t see any easy way to get a table of contents while within the book.
Xanathar's Guide issue: The Random Encounter tables are in the wrong spot; they are between the section "Awarding Magic Items" and "Common Magic Items"
Can't open any compendium content, I click a thing, it says download, app kicks me to my desktop and a download progress bar stops. It downloads the content and a new manefest.json but it never actually installs the content. I've tried through the regular screen and through my content. I have 1 GB free of internal storage. I receive no error notification, it simply never opens. I would like to provide better feedback but as it stands I can't use the application.

Ok so I found if you touch anywhere on the page in some books it pulls up all the pages in a scroll bar at the bottom but that was not intuitive. Testing other books next
All content downloaded, players handbook stuck on ‘damage and healing’ page, can’t go back.
tortle package only has front page, can’t access any more of the content.
search is quite frankly garbage, searched for ‘mind flayer’ and the monster entry is way down the page. To be honest the web dndbeyond search is pretty poor also.
love the look of the app in particular the dark theme.
Edit: I am an idiot, didn't notice the scroll bar at the bottom of the page to navigate through the book.
Every time I start or restart the app, there is a download file of "manifest.json". Is that a beta thing, or will it be a permanent feature when the app is fully live? I'd prefer not to have my data eaten up each time I relaunch the app.
When navigating between pages if you swipe left or right two fast it takes you back to the main book selection screen instead of going back to the previous page. It seems the concept of forward and back which is indicated at the top right is not that intuitive either. Its like web page bread crumbs rather than book navigation.

Not sure if it’s trying to verify anything but the logo swirls for 30 seconds before I can get back in. Is this app looking to see if I am connected? Once the books are down that should be it and only connecting when I either buy or download new content.
Also after picking a book it takes a while for the book to load which is fine but some indication that I selected the book would be good it just looks like the app freezes and waiting for a few seconds then the book loads. Some kind of acknowledgment of selection would be appropriate.
Not having any trouble on my phone (Android 6.0.1), but my tablet (Android 5.1) won't complete any downloads. It seems to crash, and while the content appears downloaded (the bookmark symbol appears) after restarting the app, it crashes when I click the source or I receive an error message about trying again on an active internet connection despite being on my home wifi. After trying to reinstall on my tablet, I'm also now receiving a login error.
Additionally, both versions appear to redownload the manifest.json file each time they're launched, which doesn't seem intentional or economical.
My phone (Android 6.0) hasn't finished any downloads, no matter how often I try. It either aborts the download silently, or it crashes while it's going, and doesn't recognize it afterwards, whether I restart the app while the download is still going or I wait for it to finish and then restart the app.
On the contrary, my tablet (Android 5.0.2) has managed to download all supplements I have tried, although it always crashes on completion. Afterwards, however, the downloaded supplements are recognized (there is that bookmark button next to them). I get the error message (loading the compendium source) in all cases, however.
I installed the 1.0.0.19 update and tried downloading the DMG from My Content. The download completed this time and - afterwards - the rest of my purchased content appeared as expected in the compendium. The rest of my report still applies, though: manifest.json, everything is 52.4 MB, all available products are listed under My Content.
Hm. I noticed, digging around, that the app had no permissions, even though I remember hitting "Allow" when it asked access to the SD card. I was hopeful for a bit, but that didn't work either. :/
So, I decided to uninstall and reinstall. Now it's worse. I get the "failed to login" error, after I hit login, get redirected to Twitch, and authorizing.
When in the middle of a compendium entry and the screen rotates, the entry scrolls back to the top rather than staying in place. I find this annoying! (The top paragraph should be the same after rotation, IMO).
Can't find previous post. Content installed now. It also showed download status in app instead of processing a download outside only. Not sure if it was a poor internet connection before or an update was pushed out.
On iPad Air 2 with iOS 10, when going to the Bookmarks page the bookmarks positioned too high on the screen and are thus unavailable underneath the top status bar.
Does not happen on iPhone with iOS 11. In case I didn't explain well, I uploaded a video showing what I mean:

When trying to go to any section of any of the books via the table of contents I get the following.
However swiping sideways does work.

Same with Glumalon here, but opposite devices.
