I would like to know what group of people sat around and said, all this 3rd party subclasses, lets make it not work on DnD Beyond with 2024 was a good idea? What the hell was the thinking behind not having that ready. You've had 2 years to get it ready and your failure has zero excuse.
As mentioned by others, the others, the Warlock's "Pact of the Blade" Invocation does not swap the modifiers of a Pact Weapon to use Charisma as they should.
Eldritch smite is also appearing in the "actions" tab and showing the minimum of 1d8 isntead of whatever number of dice it should be upscaled to.
Magical Cuning also appears to be displaying a higher value then it should (as much as I hate to admit it). As a level 12 warlock, I have 3 spell slots, so half rounded up should result in 2 spell slots being restored, but it is instead showing the maximum of 3 spell slots being restored.
The dndbeyond app is not showing complete spell lists. When I open the same character in a browser, the complete spell list is shown (wizard, under add spells). The app shows only 18 first level spells in total.
RAW, a Gloomstalker Ranger who uses Mass Fear on a melee attack is included in their own fear effect, meaning they must make the saving throw and can potentially become Frightened of themselves. This doesn't seem intentional
I don't know if it has been mentioned yet, but if you look at the Wizard description, specifically at the skills like Scholar, the mention of "Starting with level 2" is missing for all features.
I haven't had a chance to read all 33 pages of reports, but within the first 8 I don't see the issue with the Ritual Caster Feat. It doesn't add the new spells to the Spell Sheet in any form.
Lessons of the first ones warlock invocation cannot be selected multiple times despite being repeatable. (It's only partially supported, but given that you cannot select the feat from this selection either, as others have reported, it seems like it's not supported at all, besides being on the list)

Playing high charisma characters with no real life charisma - the only fantasy that still eludes me.
It seems like it would have worked a lot easier if the code behind the 2014 Character Sheets had been left as is. Then, all of the new 2024 content be added the same as you would add 3rd Party content or a new class, just like you added a new class for the Blood Hunter or the Artificer.
For example, you could have had Class: Monk (2014) that referenced the Code Base for the 2014 PHB and then added Monk (2024) that references the Code Base for 2024 PHB. Player selects one class or the other and the Character Sheet points at the associated Code Base. Trying to merge both options into a single class, Monk, has broken a lot of the features, and makes your code harder to update and maintain.
At the very least, you could have left the 2014 Character Sheet as is, built out a separate 2024 Character Sheet, then when the player went into the Character Builder, the first thing they select is either Character Sheet 2024 or Character Sheet 2014.
I am able to create a new Draconic Sorcery Sorcerer since activating my new 2024 PHB. However, I am currently unable to change an existing Sorcerer (Draconic Bloodlines - 2014) to Draconic Sorcery (2024) to gain access to the new content. I should be able to do this, right? If so, does anyone have suggestions as to what to do here? TIA... :)
I figured it out, but it requires removing the current Draconic Bloodlines class and adding the new one. You basically have to rebuild the Sorcerer, spell selection and all.

You should be able to remove the current class in the character builder (the red X next to your level in the Class tab) and add the new class. You'll have re-add/build the levels and choose the subclass again.
May I point out something annoying but not that important?
When you click on the View Cover button you get this really crappy portrait image of the cover. On other books, the button displays the full landscape image (the back and front cover together) in a reasonably hi-res image.
It's almost like they are blurring out the cover on DDB, just like the content was forcibly blurred out on YouTube videos for a while.
This might have been an existing issue with the 2014 Warlock but it is now also an issue with the 2024 Warlock: With the Genie subclass, the Wish spell is not added to the level 17 Mystic Arcanum (9th Level) options despite being on the spell list for that subclass.
I am still haven't gotten access to the 2024 PHB so I can't check it myself, but have you checked the Credits section? Usually they have both versions of the Cover Art there along with the Artist's credit, and you can generally click on Open in a new window to get a full size version.

Artificers cannot access 2024 spells. Sorry if this was mentioned already.
Only about a 100 times.

back to pen and paper I guess

Level 11 Sorcerer does not give an additional spell known, you do not get it at level 12 either

I really don't get it.

Some feats that require a spell casting feature (spell sniper, elemental adept, war caster) are not acknowledging the feature within Bards.

Actually, these feats (elemental adept, spell sniper, war caster) don't seem to be available in Wizard, either.
