It's a new year and a new decade and we've come back from our break with some really quick, NEEDED changes.
First, we changed the descriptor on our transactions to read "D&D Beyond". As many of you know, we are owned by a larger company called Fandom and we had put this larger company as the descriptor because that's technically where the money is going, but many of you were, understandably, confused. So we've changed it to "D&D Beyond" so that way it makes sense and hopefully it'll be a little easier to look down your bank statements and see where you spent your money.
Second, we removed the device limit from free users. We previously only allowed free users to download the mobile app on 2 devices. In the background, we secretly upped it to 6 to see if users were actually hitting the limit. What we learned is that 80% of our users used 2 devices or less; even those with unlimited plans. This makes sense because most people have a phone and sometimes a tablet. 98% of our users had less than 3 devices. So we determined that this device limit was completely artificial and decided to just get rid of it. This will also make it easier when the new player app comes out and there's two apps that users can download.
Keep an eye out for more changes and exciting things in the near future.
As always, questions and comments are welcome!

the WHAT?
please add a way to get my physical book content on here
There is a way. You just have to buy the content. As it has been discussed several score times, DnDBeyond is not run by Wizards. Buying a book from a bookstore will not grant you an ebook version (unless the publisher themselves offer it); buying a Wizards product will not give access to the digital content (with certain exceptions, like the Essential Kit.)
Add Metric System option for characters creation, that will be very useful for us in europe.
hey just a suggestion, a modifier for magic items that make things like bags of holding more useful in a sheet.
(in modifier type of item)
ignore - weight of (choose items)/weight of (types of item) - (in fixed value) (up to amount)
Out of curiosity will you guys be adding in the future any options to limit the content we see for like Adventure league? I play it more often than home games and find I always click spells that I can't use by accident due to this reason. It could be like one of the sliders you have to show homebrew, magic, and Eberron content. or even in the spell's description have the book it came from listed at the bottom or something. If not I'm still gonna use your site because I find it helps me keep everything together and more organized but a little change like that might do wonders for customers.
