Hello DMs,

I'm excited to share a new version of Improved Initiative with you today! The app will now display an alternative two-column layout on smaller screen sizes (<1200px wide), and a one-column layout on even smaller screens (<700px wide). If there's demand for it, I can add an option to disable the layout adjustments, but the app just looks pretty bad with three columns on a narrower screen. I hope this makes Improved Initiative more usable for you on your smaller devices.

There are a handful of other updates, most of them are behind the scenes. These changes will help me to build new features faster and keep the codebase cleaner. Notably, you can now import spells from DnDAppFiles.

I'm planning to add a few new free features before we hit the $250 milestone. I've got my eye on the statblock and encounter libraries- I think they are a source of slowness in the app today and I've seen a lot of requests for some better organizational features. There are a few ways I can approach the problem, the main decision is between a folder-based or tag-based approach. I'd love to hear your feedback on how you would prefer to organize your creatures and encounters.

Thanks for your support. Happy DMing!

Update 1.1.3: Fixed a few bugs since release. Feel free to open any other issues that you find.

Update 1.1.5: Made a few more tweaks to the CSS that should improve your experience on smaller devices.
