Spells at your fingertips. Literally.
The Killer App for D&D v3.5 (d20) and Pathfinder RPG Gamers
SpellbookMaster for iPhone and iPad makes it easy to find Dungeons & Dragons v3.5 (d20) and Pathfinder spells fast and see detailed information for them.
You can browse spells by name, level, domain and class. For each class, see spells sorted by name or by level for easy access. Searching allows you to find spells by any search term.
To get you started, SpellbookMaster can automatically import d20 System Reference spells from www.systemreferencedocuments.org or Pathfinder reference spells from d20pfsrd.com. You can also import your own spells from text files.
Spellbooks can be shared among iPhones, iPod touches and iPads using the application. Spells can be edited on a Mac running SpellbookMaster for Mac 2.3, a free application, and then imported to the iOS app.

Pros and cons of SpellbookMaster app for iPhone and iPad
SpellbookMaster app good for
Spells are broken into Spells, Schools, Levels, and Classes, which is helpful. Choosing between d20 or Pathfinder spellbooks is also helpful. The search is fast and the search results show classes and levels for the spell. Is it worth $7 more than Spells 2.08? As a new player, I dont think so.
What makes this app better than the others I own (and thus worth more to me) is the FREE Mac app that integrates with it. I find it easy to make lists of spells for individual characters and sync them with my iPad. If the price bothers you, try the Mac app and see if you like it. The iPad app also works well with VoiceOver (important for having your device read out the details to you or everyone playing).
I would like to see more scope for nanaging spells while you are playing, but Im not sorry I bought this app.
Very nice and complete :)
It would be great to create spell lists: as is, it is a great reference but you need to lookup every spell in a long list.
Some bad moments
This app is worth every penny for DMs with spell casters. note:you need to connect to a wi-fi network to download all the PHB spells from the Wizards site by using a link on the app once you have downloaded them itll work. Thx for the update!
Works just as its says putting a great deal of info at your fingers tip. My only issue is the price, its way to much for this kind of app. I would have been happy to pay 2 or 3 bucks for it but 8 feels wrong. Other the that Id give it five stars.
Great! This app rocks for DMs and spellcasters. This should be done for the powers of the classes ad races in the 4 edition of D&D.
You should have seen the guys I game with when I showed them this app. It was like telling a group of adolescent girls that the Twilight characters are real and all single. Its pretty perfect the way it is with what it does, my suggestion would just make it go above and beyond. If there was some way to create and save customized spell lists for your characters (and maybe mark when theyre used and reset when you rest) thatd be awesome. But all in all, its well worth the price.
It has every spell from the core books and a few more but it needs to have a way were you can put spells in that this dosnt support. Other than that worth the money.
So far, so good, but it needs more to really be a killer app.
