.cah

Extension: 5e Companion App Character File

Developer: Vladimir Pomsztein

The .cah file extension is specifically linked to the 5th edition Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) companion app. This app helps players manage their characters digitally, eliminating the need for constantly updating physical character sheets. A .cah file acts as a digital repository for all your character’s crucial information. This includes not only the standard ability scores, skills, and proficiencies, but also a detailed inventory listing items, equipment, and even gold pieces. Furthermore, it allows for the storage of a character’s backstory, personality traits, and other roleplaying elements. This comprehensive data storage ensures that all aspects of your character are readily available during gameplay, whether you’re playing online or at your tabletop.

To open a .cah file, you’ll need the official 5e Companion app installed on your device (either iOS or Android). The app automatically recognizes and imports .cah files; you generally just need to navigate to the file’s location on your device and select it within the app’s import function. It’s important to note that .cah files are proprietary to the 5e Companion app, meaning they cannot be opened or edited using other software. If you’re experiencing difficulty opening a .cah file, ensure you have the latest version of the app installed and that the file itself isn’t corrupted. Consider contacting the app’s support for assistance if problems persist.
