| 2024-08-05 |  | | Must have in the field and quite easy to understand. Information is well organized. |
| 2023-11-08 |  | | I was under the assumption that the app would be similar to the spiral notebook with a quick reference diagram, like the notebook. The app takes more time to find a wirefill than the old-school spiral. App needs work. |
| 2023-05-31 |  | | Needs a notes page, and some basic stuff. It would be very helpfull if it had a built in organizer for pictures and notes. Also id like to have some more info on just how to do things relevent to the trade. I frequently look for something i dont do often and am disappointed it doesnt have it |
| 2023-03-09 |  | | I own the book already but because of water damage and time its been ripped pretty badly downloaded the app and i love it. Although i do wish they had a simulator for motors and wiring diagrams other than that this app is great! |
| 2022-12-15 |  | | The only bad thing is they will asked you to rate the app everytime you open it. It makes the experience unbearable. I could care less. I'm giving a terrible review because of this annoying feature. |
| 2022-08-19 |  | | App is great for quick references. I would give it a 5 start but in all honesty the actual book is much better. The physical book is very small fits anywhere, has much more detailed examples and much easier to locate info. I highly recommend Uglys but you definitely need the spiral book version even if you have the phone app version. |
| 2022-08-07 |  | | Perfect for quick reference and it's always with you. The calculations tap is above and beyond what I thought I would get with this app. It's awesome for new electricians who want to figure out how electricity works mathematically. |
| 2022-08-02 |  | | Information at your finger tips, It's really nice to be able to double check on a symble that is not used vary often. Just a lot of good stuff and easy to find |
| 2021-11-28 |  | | I'm a fan of the original quick reference books and so naturally i purchased the app. It supplies all the original information and as an added function, performs plug in computations for various formulas. The only thing missing is a better interface. It needs something to facilitate quick access to the various sections without having to look under multiple sub categories. The search function is available, but in a rush you want to have a visual cue (maybe different colors for categories). |
| 2021-06-13 |  | | It's a start but it's incomplete. There's things that are in book and App but aren't searchable or in the directory provided. You have to search for something similar and scroll away. Even then searching doesn't work as it only matches titles and not the content. If you're not going to make your app complete I'd much rather have the book. |
