About this app

The Roll20 Companion App is everything a player needs at game time! Keep your characters at your fingertips at home, the game store, or wherever your adventures take you. Access your 5E character sheet from your mobile device and get your character’s info at-a-glance including your armor class, feats, and inventory.

View your character’s stats and skills during your game session, including your spell DC and proficiencies. Track inspiration, spell slots, hit points, ki points, and sorcery points. Ready to roll for initiative or make an ability check? Let us do the math for you. Dice rolls made in the app are also sent to the Roll20 VTT chat, powered by our signature quantum roll server.

Need to look up a rule or description? Use our powerful 5E SRD compendium search to find exactly what you need. From being grappled to magic missile, Roll20 has you covered.

Characters must be created and edited on the Roll20 website and be in an active game to appear in the Companion App. You can also leave feedback for bugs and improvements straight from your mobile device.

Let’s roll!

Ratings and reviews

The app works okay- I have to restart it a couple times during my sessions, but it helps to look at my stats and feats. However, you can't look at any spells past Level 3, and you can't see the time it takes to cast or the duration on many spells. I can deal with the casting time and duration, but I need access to ALL my spells, not just cantrips to Level 3.

Even for an app that is supposed to let you read you character sheets every sheet I've ever looked at is quote "not optimized for mobile". There is no way I can find to make them compatible. While you can press buttons on the sheet whether or not they actually go through seems to be a dice roll in itself. This app hasn't changed in 2 years as far as I can tell using it. It isn't worth the space to keep if it wasn't for the fact that the website is even less optimized for mobile.

Updated review: so no pinch and zoom is not good. But worse was in using it in play for the first time last night. When I sent a command to roll a stat in the app, it didn't show up in the roll20 game for about 14-20 seconds. Which is impossible when rolling initiative and trying to keep up with the group. So, nifty concept but no follow-through.
