The "best" thing is when someone makes legitimately the best application for its purpose (arguably the only good application for it), so you convince your friends to use it because it's so useful, and then they cram it full of ads and bloat and make it borderline unusable, but your friends won't switch to a different app (or even leave the app altogether) because it's the only way they know how to do the thing

I'm talking about the 5e Companion app on Android. Anyone know any good alternatives? It used to be so good, but then they started adding Unearthed Arcana garbage to it, which almost entirely sucks ass, and when UA gets officially added, they have to add the official version separately because some people have already used the UA version to make characters. I want so badly to switch away from it, but I can't find any good free alternatives that have all of the content from 5e.

I wish 5e.tools had a character sheet builder
