edit: Thank you for the help, sent an email with follow-up 4/23 This is a great tool and I'm enjoying using it, DungeonRoller, and Genesis app for Worldbuilding. I really like the content generators included. However my only problem is the Share Option is broken. Everytime I select the share icon, the app crashes out. My phone says there is a bug and to clear caches, but that doesn’t solve the problem.

Hey Michael, can you shoot me an email at alexanderbwinn -at- gmail.com? I can't reproduce this crash on my device, but you're not the only one to report it. I'd love it if you're up for providing some more details so I can get this bug fixed!

Truth be told, this is pretty good! It's quite helpful with the numerous generators it gives you at the beginning and the price isn't riduculous to buy everything. But, it's quite difficult to create custom generators which knocked it down a star. When creating it, you can only add attributes, that's it. No deleting already given sections, no editing of the description. Nada. If this was changed, I would probably change my rating.

I really love the app. makes worldbuilding go a lot smoother, but with the addition of the subscriptions, I gotta ask might we get a pc version. and if there is one I suppose i just haven't been that lucky to find it.
