Jenny has an iPhone X and everything looks fine on that one. Not sure why you are seeing problems.

The app is designed to interact with Apple Mail. It comes with every Apple device, so you should just need to set up an account in Settings. The only other error that i have seen is with simulators, where the simulator does not have permission to connect to internet.

I noticed something when using Bliss Bull Shield. I was outfitting another character in the party and it split the strength slot when I added the shield to melee off hand - ex. 27/26. Then when I added it to the range off hand - instead of changing to a single 27 it changed to a single 28.

As far as stat modifications that stayed correct - however it made it confusing when playing with the build. I couldn't understand why it was increasing stats on the odd #'s instead of the evens.

For now my work around is to put the Bliss shield in the melee off hand and another +1 shield in the range offhand. That keeps the stat split but correct for the melee stats and ability to correlate.

Well, doesn't that stink.

I have checked both Android and IOS, and both have the same issue. The reasons are complicated, but long story short, this is a display problem. The Strength mod used to calculate the Melee and Ranged, ToHit and Damage are correct. For Coaches: The numbers you care about are always correct The total Strength number is wrong, when the Bliss Bull Shield is equipped in both Melee and Ranged offhand. It will not be that hard to fix, but there is not enough time between now and Origins to get the code done, testing completed and run it through the approval processes. I will make sure I get a fix out before Gencon.

Thanks for catching this.

I'm sure this is easy but I cloned a build to switch out only a couple tokens. How do I rename it?

From the main character screen, tap the clone which will highlight it. Now tap 'Add' (or '+' on Android). Instead of creating a new character, that screen will allow you to modify the name and/or class. If you change the class, any invalid tokens for that class will be removed from the build.

Somebody has connections at Google and Apple. Same day approvals just don't happen, but they did today, from both.

Version 5.5 has been released for update and purchase for the Character Generator for IOS and Android. This revision includes the following changes:

- Corrected a problem with Bliss Bull Shield equipped in both Melee Offhand and Missile Offhand. (Strength number was incorrect, although To Hit and Damage numbers were correct)
- Corrected a problem allowing the user to equip more than one Charm of Awakened Synergy
- Add code to prevent the Arcane Scroll Tube being equipped with the Greater Arcane Scroll Tube
- Added 4 new tokens: Greave of Firewalk, Flameguard Greaves, Dragonward Amulet and Ale Master Earcuff
- Corrected a problem with the Statistics view not scrolling in IOS 11.4 (IOS only)
- Improved stability on Android OS 7.0 through 8.1 (Android only)

This will be the final rev prior to Gencon.

Just caught something. Redoubt set bonus for my dwarf fighter build adds the +2 to strength but it doesn't add the plus 1 to hit and damage. Have redoubt helm, Byr's, and Giln's shield. Can send u my build if it helps.

You hate me, don't you.

The problem only affects Android. IOS is working correctly. Expect 5.6 for Android to come out soon. sigh...

This makes me SO HAPPY

I need to apologize to Android users. There is another bug fix on the Android Character Generator. In fixing the problems with putting the app into the background, I installed code to handle the Back button from the OS. On most devices, this worked fine, but on some, it would crash rather than go into background mode.

Version 5.7 is available and corrects the problem with handling the Back button.

Tankard of health doesn't seem to be working correctly for Android. Adds one HP for each of melee and ranged, but not 3 or nothing.

Sorry about that. it's too late for an update before Gencon, but I will put this on the list for the next update.
