Google Play - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.herogmtools
App Store - https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hero-system-mobile/id1352750917?ls=1&mt=8

This project is an extension of an export template I wrote a few months ago. I had so much fun writing that template that I decided to develop a full app.
Features
Import characters from Hero Designer using this export template
Characteristics and Skills may be long pressed and a check will be made
Dice rolling tools (3d6, Hit, Damage, and Free Form)
The H.E.R.O. tool generates random 250 point 5e supers (shout out to Cassandra for allowing me to use her original idea)
Track statistics about your die rolls, including average values, distribution, total stun etc.
This is still very much a work in progress and I have plans to add more features as time goes on. For now though I feel that it’s mature enough to release to the general public.
Feedback is always welcome either here or at phil.guinchard@gmail.com

I think I have a solution...it'll require an update to both the app and the export template.
Change the export template to use the ISO-8859-1 character encoding
Tell the app to read in that format
It'll strip out characters like smart quotes but it will read and render in the app.
I ran into similar problems when initially working on Hero Combat Manager and exporting files. Let me dig up the RegEdit commands I added to my exports that help get rid of stuff like that.
