Why it's different
Questions
Is 5e Character Sheet free?
Your first character is free forever, with the full sheet: dice, spells, levelling and the adventure journal. Pro is a one-time purchase for unlimited characters, homebrew, your own images and character export. No subscription, no ads, no account.
Does it work offline?
Yes, fully offline. Your characters live on your device — no account, no sync required, and they can never disappear because a server went down.
What rules and content does it include?
It uses the fifth-edition System Reference Document 5.1, with 319 spells and full rules text, correct 5e maths for hit points, AC, saves and proficiency, plus guided character creation and leveling.
Is 5e Character Sheet available on Android?
Not currently — it's an iOS app for iPhone. There's no Android version at this time.
Do I need an account to use it?
No. There's no account and no login. Everything is stored locally on your device.
