Can’t Multitask
AxelMajere
It’s a neat app, but you can’t do anything while using it. Your phone has to be on and running the app the whole time. If you put it to sleep, or switch apps (like to a character sheet app..) the music stops. Also, the mixer doesn’t work and you can’t mute the music without muting the entire app, so you can’t do sound effects without music.
No Background Audio

The audio abruptly cuts out as soon as you try to use your device for anything else. I need to be able to reference the notes and rules on my iPad when I run my games, so this is kind of a deal breaker. Otherwise, the app is brilliant at what it does. Please add background audio so that I can use this app while running my games!
Great app, one flaw
manis munweller
Sounds are great quality. Environments are rich and full. The one glaring flaw is that you can't turn off the environment sounds. Gets frustrating after a while
Great Sounds
Drelen
The sounds are top quality. Needs a way to pause the ambient sounds and play only sound effects. I wish we could hotkey some of the sound clips or it would not go all the way back to the main menu after using. Right now it takes longer to find the FX than they last. Needs to be able to play while minimized.
not great

I took a chance on this app hoping that it would provide me with situational music for our DnD campaign, turns out the music doesn't change when you change environments. It's one generic tune the whole time.
So many options!

The list of sound effects, is very large ( you have over a dozen effects for foot steps, alone) and it is very easy to add favorites and a custom 'soundboard', and my only complaint is that it only works in portrait mode even when my iPad Pro is in landscape. Other than that, this app is great!
Good quality, minor nits to pick
SuddenBob
Good selection of sounds, high sound quality, etc. I'd like to have the option to play the audio in the background so I can consult rules and save battery power. More sci-fi sounds like lasers, blasters, a few button sounds would be nice too.
Brilliant and essential
YES 5 STARS
This is the top cheese of any D&D software, and for free? Unbeatable. Thank you.
Great app for my campaigns
Jonny2deaf
I love everything about this app. Well worth the money. Gives my campaigns that extra flavor. Please add background capability. I use multiple apps to organize my campaigns and I am forced to choose between music and tracking my encounters in another app. Other than that everything works fantastic.
A few things holding it back...
McNasty Nate
So far I'm loving the quality of this app, but I feel there are three things that are holding it back from being a solid 5-star: 1. Background capability: I use my iPad for referencing campaign notes, which creates odd moments of silence when I switch apps. As such, I run DMDJ from my iPhone, but this kills the battery since I can't turn the screen off. 2. Landscape on iPads: I feel like this is pretty self explanatory. Your website recommends using an iPad for a better overall experience. Most iPad cases orient the iPad in landscape. 3. A nice to have: iCloud backup the snapshots for easy transitioning between devices.
