The Warcraft Characters app for iPhone that we reported on a while ago has been updated to version 2.0, and with it come a host of terrific improvements. As we were told last day, gear has been added in, so your iPhone can not only show you data about your (or anyone else’s) characters, but it can now additionally show you all of their gear, and even reputation status. And there’s good news for non-US users, too: the app now supports characters from any and all realms, not just US and EU, but Korean, Chinese, and Taiwanese realms as well. The only thing that’s still lost is seeing individual talents — otherwise, it’s as featured an app as you can get. certain, guild search and stats might be nice, and there’s always additional features like be.imba integration, or character comparisons, but as a portable Armory, it works great as is. We’re not certain whether that is all Rudi’s work or a conclusion of a teamup with Omen of Clarity (who’s been working on an iPhone web app for a while), but either way, great job.

And there’s a shiny new icon, too (and I like it a lot better). Characters is now available on the iPhone’s App Store for the low, low price of free.
