I've noticed that starting up this app takes a long time (black screen, DDB logo, spinning loading icon) and a troubling ammout of data usage (37 megs). It shows as downloading a file when the app starts up. I'm in a destitute country with prohibitively expensive mobile phone data packages (Canada), I was hoping to be able to download my books and have them stored on my device.
Is this download something that happens every time the app starts up, or is it just installing frequent updates? A setting to only do this download over wifi might be a good idea. (I may have found it in the Settings under Installed Sources Only?).
The app definately seems a lot faster to load and search than the website, so hopefully it can help mitigate data usage too.

D&D Beyond FoundersThis has been addressed in today's update. This should have only been occurring over WiFi as-is; I'll have to ensure that's the case though.
Please let us know if you see any issues with the new process or have any additional feedback. :)
