Thoughts of a companion app?

I have been plying ESO since day one and one thing has always bothered me. Swapping gear into the bank to pull it out on another character of the same is what really irks me. The process is tedious and could be resolved with some sort of system like the Destiny Companion app. The app that Destiny and Destiny 2 uses allows you to transfer gear over from characters and the bank between characters (even if you are already logged in) making it easy to aquire a piece of gear that you will inevitably forget to grab on a different character. Perhaps with enough discussion, ZoS could consider creating some way to further immerse the player base into ESO with an app that could also include lore, guides, lists the dailies and weeklies etc.

    I mean would it be nice, sure, but in the grand scheme of things...it's a couple minutes.

    At least it's not as bad now with the Crafting bag. I remember days where I would log in soley to clean up the bank and get it organized.

    I would love an app for ESO. It has been brought up quite a few times, lots of threads, definitely a lot of people interested. I would love it if you could chat in guilds, or view your characters and stuff.
    But the thing is, I don't think its ZOS' priority, the demand might not be high enough...
    Although, they are hiring a Senior Mobile Designer right now... but that could be for other games :D

    Totally behind this idea.

    As for ZOS creating the app, they don't need to; they just need to release APIs and the coding community will take over. Much like how Bungie released the Companion app, but third party devs have created vastly better apps - like Ishtar Commander and DIM.

    I would love something like this. I can't afford to subscribe right now and inventory/bank management is a nightmare. Storing stuff on alts makes things like crafting take so long logging back and forth, and eats into the small amount of play time that I have. Since they refuse to give even a measly extra 30 bank spaces for gold (or crowns), this would actually make using alts for space feasible and thus be very helpful.

    A companion app or in-game pre-view that could show you what a specific piece of armor will look like on you char BEFORE crafting a crap-tastic set piece would be nice....

    This would be very handy.

    Bank organisation. Characters inventory. Trait research. Mount upgrades. Mail. The possibilities are endless.
