Mobile App Available or at least plan to be released soon?

I'm patiently/hopefully waiting for the iPad reader. It is all that would make this the perfect program for me, which might or might not be perfect for someone else. The ability to read up on the adventure/campaign when I'm anywhere, and not have to use/pay for content another time, is keeping me patient. Reading my own notes would also be a great feature, while being able to write notes/content would a killer feature (but probably won't happen). So I wish it would be coming sooner than later. Thanks for such an awesome program.

I think it would be cool if players could look at their character sheet and roll some dice on a mobile app without any of the other features of the full program. I have some players without a laptop who would basically do that with DnD Beyond that would love that capability with FGU. Then they'd still be able to play with us on Fantasy Grounds with other games. We would have to basically jump on Discord and share screen, but they can point where they want their character to go on the shared screen and read handouts and stuff on there - basically they'd still be able to join the adventure with us.

I'm guessing the DM would still have to handle effects and automation unless they can set it up on a computer beforehand. It might be annoying to set those up or apply them on a small screen.

Thinking about this, is there any way to export a character from FGU and import it into some kind of mobile app? Even if players couldn't roll dice from it, just having the ability to look at there sheet from a phone or tablet would be very handy.

Best way to do this is to have them create a character on DnD Beyond. My players do it. I've done it. It's also a great way to make sure the FGU sheet is accurate since DnD Beyond automates the level ups.

FGU characters can be exported as XML, but I'm not aware of anything else that parses the schema beyond... hm, I think there have been a few system-specific attempts to convert character sheets to PDF (e.g. https://fantasygrounds2pdf.vercel.app/ ; don't know if that's up-to-date for current D&D 5E, but that's one ruleset that it targets).

There are multiple ways to be able to export a character from FG for 5E (anyhow) and have the XML converted to a PDF. They could then save that file to their phone or tablet.
