User reviews

AboveVTT is a highly praised free virtual tabletop extension for D&D Beyond users, known for its ease of use, active development, and rich feature set without paywalls. Users appreciate its integration with D&D Beyond, support for custom maps, and lightweight performance. However, it lacks mobile support, occasionally exhibits bugs such as music breaking map loading and token issues, and some functionality like native map creation is missing. Despite these issues, its community and developer responsiveness make it a standout tool for both new and experienced DMs.

Pros

Free to use with no paywalls for features like fog of war, lighting, vision, and measuring tools.
Excellent integration with D&D Beyond, making it ideal for campaigns that use D&D Beyond content.
Lightweight and user-friendly with fast setup and easy onboarding for new players and DMs.
Constantly improving with active developer support and engagement with community feedback via Discord.
Allows importing custom maps and images easily, including animated maps, and supports music and sound features. Helpful for in-person tabletop gaming.

Cons

Lack of mobile support, limiting access for users without PCs.
Occasional bugs and crashes, such as issues with music breaking map sources or token glitches.
Some users report the need to refresh multiple times during sessions to maintain stability and smooth play.
Limited features for map creation and custom environment building; no native map generation tools.
Some users experienced difficulty loading maps from common hosting sites and token display problems after updates.

It's the VTT every D&DBeyond user can and should use! So far, the only feature I found missing from this great VTT is the ability to generate maps and create custom environments, but that hasn't been an issue, since it's already giving you access to hundreds of maps and environments, and if you didn't find what you're looking for there, you can easily import an image to act as your map or background, including animated maps! Oh, and I mention it's completely free to use? Because it is! Fog-o-war, light/vision, measuring tools - so many of the features that are locked behind a paywall on other platforms - are completely free, and extremely easy to use! It's a bit buggy at times, and can definitely be improved upon - but that is to be expected from a product still in its development. Considering it allows for so much, asking for so little I think it's an absolute win! I love AboveVTT! I felt like I hit the jackpot when I found out about it, and I can't recommend it enough! Don't know what I would do without it.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

AboveVTT requires very minimum permissions.
