When you pick a gem dragonborn, it states that the +2/+1 from ASI must go to different abilities, but the drop down selector lets you pick the same ability for both the +2 and the +1 allowing you to effectively get a +3 to a stat.
Yes, this is a known issue with floating ASIs in general. You just need to go by the honor system for now.

If you make a drakewarden ranger, on the Action tab of the character sheet, under "Drake Companion," it says:
Draconic Essence. The drake is immune to acid damage, and deals acid damage with its bite and Infused Strikes.
While I think that would make the subclass more appealing, I don't believe that's accurate; I believe that the RAW say that it deals acid damage with its infused strikes, then, at Ranger 7, the bite attack deals an extra 1d6 of the Draconic Essence damage type—on top of the regular piercing damage the bite deals. As far as I can tell from the RAW, the drake's initial bite attack (piercing) never gains any extra damage type or becomes magical; it just deals the Infused Strikes damage and then later deals the extra Magic Fang damage (and even later with Empowered Bite).

I'd happy to be proven wrong about this!
The Action snippet is more of a summary of the drake companion's traits and attacks, and so they just rolled the bit about the bite doing dragon-type damage in since it's true from level 7 and up, and to save space.
The Bite description gives the correct info depending on your Ranger level: +0 acid damage, or +1d6 acid damage, or +2d6 acid damage.

When choosing the DrakeWarden as a class and exporting the character sheet as a PDF, I've noticed that the text for the DrakeWarden's specific abilities still contain much of the coding for the class. For the Actions tab, under Drake Companion it shows for Armor Class: "<strong>Armor Class:</strong> 17", and for Bite it shows: "<em><strong>Bite.</strong> Melee Weapon Attack:</em>".
This also occurs under the Draconic Gift section when surrounding texts and class features don't have this issue appearing. When printing the character sheet it displays the slashes and brackets.
Hello, our DM has Fizban. And I have also acces to Fizban through another shared content campaign.
However when checking the character sheet in the app and online. The breatweapon stats still say d6 instead of d10. And I cannot find Chromatic warding for my blue dragonborn.

You'll need to change your Race from Dragonborn to the Chromatic Dragonborn variant.

It would be within Dragonborn, then you select the variant.
Is this character already in the shared campaign? You'd only have access to the shared content after you Join the campaign.

I checked. Indeed in the shared campaign I have access to the subclasses of dragonborn. Very strange. I was in the understanding by DND Beyond that once content is shared it becomes available to all players in the campaign, also for character creation outside of that specific campaign.

Shared content has never been available outside of the campaign it is shared through. If you are granted access to the content from Fizban's via content sharing, then you can utilize that content in campaign which the content is being shared to you.
The Bonus Actions and Mythic Actions sections still do not seem to show up in any monster listings in the (Android) mobile app. Checked multiple Fizban's monsters (and some from Ravenloft). Show up fine within the books on the app, but not in the app's monster listings. Any updates?

The dragonhide belt items aren't working apparently due to D&D Beyond not having proper implantation of said item with no modifier to monk ki DC in item creation.
Gem Dragonborn racial discrepancy found w/ Gem Flight.
Gem Flight. Starting at 5th level, you can use a bonus action to manifest spectral wings on your body. These wings last for 1 minute. For the duration, you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed and can hover. Once you use this trait, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest.
Character sheet allows this feature at level 3 with the text:
Gem Flight. Starting at 3rd level, you can use your bonus action to temporarily summon an array of spectral gems that match your Gem Ancestry in the shape of wings that last for 1 minute. For the duration, you gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed and can hover. Once you use this trait, you can’t do so again until you finish a long rest.

The wording you quote from the character sheet is not what I see when I create a gem Dragonborn. Specifically, there is no mention of 3rd level, and no reference to “an array of spectral gems…”. I wonder if you are working with either a homebrew version or a UA version (although I’m thinking DDB stopped supporting UA before the Fizban’s UA, but I could be wrong.)
That said, there does appear to be an issue with Gem Flight on the character sheet; it appears as a Race trait in the “Features and Traits” section, even with 1st level characters and the description there does not specify a level. Tapping on it shows a longer description that does specify a level. And it does not appear as a bonus actions list until 5th level. But I do think the description in Features and Traits should specify “at 5th level”
Minor Issue: the Draconic Gift feature of the Drakewarden is not adding the Draconic language into the proficiency and language section of my dndbeyond character sheet.

The breath weapons for the metallic and gem dragonborn don’t show the range on the mobile app. Some of the breaths don’t show the damage dice as well.
Apologies if this was already addressed, but I need some assistanceI took Gift of the Metallic with my 4th level feat, specifying WisdomAnd its not showing in the ability scores.EDIT: Just noticed it doesn't actually increase your ability score, just lets you cast Cure Wounds off of it. Nevermind.
If its bugged, that's fine, but is there a workaround anyone knows?
