| 2022-04-08 |  | | Doesn't give you real images of designs and stops at 24 feet for decks which is half of what most contractors require. |
| 2021-11-01 |  | | Ads immediately, which didn't provide an option to close. |
| 2021-09-09 |  | | I'm sure this app is okay if you want a deck that is square. No adjustment available. If it had the feature of floor planner apps then I may be able to use it but in the real world where structures are of different shapes and sizes it is unusable for professionals or serious DIY. |
| 2021-06-21 |  | | It could use some work. Could you start the fencing height at 4 feet? that is the highest your allowed in Calgary in the front of your house without a permit. Also could you add an area for top cap. And possibly a second rail group. Some fences have 2x4 on one side and 1x4 on the back side. But thanks for the app. And if I were to go pro. I would much rather have a one time fee. |
| 2021-06-11 |  | | Terrible! Can only do decks in square/rectangle sizes and only in even increments. (No inches) No Stairs! No stair calculator, spindle calculator...nothing! Useless and uninstalling! Your response only shows me your not in carpentry/construction. Keep trying jr. Responding again I see... keep the excuses coming! We'd all love to see how many you have. In the end, your app still sucks, your still not a tradesman and you'll never be able to build anything half as good as my 9 yr old son! |
| 2021-05-03 |  | | Trash, trash, trash. It belongs to the trash bin. It has no good intention at heart for the user. It is has kinda virus. All they card is how to push an annoying ad. |
| 2021-04-08 |  | | Greeted with an ad that I couldn't escape from within 15 seconds of opening the app. I immediately closed and uninstalled this app. Very irritating!!!!! |
| 2020-11-15 |  | | Like the simplicity. And how material is figured. Could use more features but if app is improved upon and little more work putbinto it could wind up being a time saver for sure. Developer is quick to respond to review. Worth a star in my book. Wish thete was a way to input materials and cost then apply it to material lists. Also a ft/inch calculator would be cool. |
| 2020-10-24 |  | | Testing out the free app at this point. Very basic app at this point. With the adds that run with the app I feel like there could be a bit more functionality. Such as fence height, and/or garage metal roofing and/or variable pitch angle. To pay for the pro version would like to see more of what is upgraded. For 0.99/month, what do we gain, only garage metal roofing and/or pitch height? What about extra bracing for fence corners. Or different fence materials besides just wood. |
| 2020-09-30 |  | | Unless you are building a no grade one sided basic precut fence, you will be frustrated at the lack of choices for sizes of boards |
