Don't forget that you also get the "custom" dice for the RPG, Edge of the Empire -- BETA, as well. That is if you're going to play that as well, of course.
If you were lucky enough to get a copy of it, that is. I debated, and by the time that I decided to, they were sold out. You snooze, you lose :)

Since Edge of the Empire RPG is an "open beta", you should be able to pick up a copy at your LGS, or through FFG.
Wave 1: Wave 2:
4 X-Wings 1 Millennium Falcon (YT-1300)
3 Y-Wings 3 A-Wings
6 TIE Fighters 1 Slave 1 (Firespray-31)
2 TIE Advanced 3 TIE Interceptor

There's the rub! FFG says it is not available and I don't have a game store anywhere near me.

…Yes the app should have that feature, no the app is not useless even without it.
Agree with both points.

Yes, but I canceled my Dice Expansion off of my pre-ordered so it would be held up at Miniature Market and bought the App to play this game instead. Moving the dice is just an easy way to keep track. For instance, you say I'm going to use my focus on this action and then you get interrupted. You come back to the game and you now forget if you did that or not or whether you had a token or not. So, if you didn't move the die, you may miss a point. The thing is, if you can make dice roll realistically, then you can simulate manually changing the face.
If you're interrupted, leave the focus token on the table and write a note about who was rolling the attack.
But seriously, I don't have my game with me at present, but the only time that "change die facing" terminology is used is when dealing with the application of focus/certain card effects that turn focus into some result (e.g. proton torpedoes/luke's ability)? I really don't see how you are unable to do that on the fly.
Would it be useful? Maybe (at least if you could "drop" a focus token for a side and just have it change the results). But without the app going into every single way the dice could be rolled (i.e. having to explicitly state the attacker/defender pilot, special rules, distance, and tokens used), I fail to see how useful it could really be.
Can someone please describe this application that has used it? Can I just preset 2,3, or 4 green or red die? I only have an iPad, so does it roll viva a button or is it shake controlled? What kind do sound effect play and when? A tie engine or laser or x-wing volley would be fun for atmosphere, but a lot of no ship sounds are meaningless.
I too can simply figure out that an eye becomes a hit without needing to change it, but want to know how the app is just as a die app. I wish they had either a lite app or a video.
You can create presets, you can either shake or use button to roll dice, you can adjust shake sensitivity, choose sounds none, standard, Jedi, droid, rebel or my favorite imperial, the best IMO.
It a good app, certainly not useless but could be easily improved which I'm sure will happen soon.
