| 2024-03-11 |  | | Lot of clicking and nothing happens. I go to add first frame peice... tada! nothing.... so on and so on there is nothing being added until i realized you need to add each node using twice the clicks because no toggle base function. Not a carpal tunnel friendly app. |
| 2023-06-29 |  | | Awesome app for checking results for academic purpose. The only headache I faced is, the diagram is nearly invisible when mobile is in dark mode. I have to turn off dark mode while using app. So, it would be highly appreciated if the background of app is customizable and/or bright background. |
| 2023-05-20 |  | | Overall it's good, but I found a bug when I wanted to add Internal Hinge. It forceclosed. I hope you can fix it. It's the most helpful app for engineering student! |
| 2023-05-17 |  | | If I know how to calculate and obtain the values of the reactions, moments, shear diagrams... Ect of absolutely any type of structure, even inclined, or with side sway, whatever; I spend my time looking for difficult frames to analyze and I solve them all well and the values are the same as this beautiful app. Can it be considered that I know structure analysis? What am I missing? |
| 2022-12-17 |  | | This app is very okay and works perfectly on producing shear, moment axial and many more. However, it should need more improvement because I can't generate report whenever I want to see the report of my beam or frame. |
| 2022-03-07 |  | | Nice app, but with one BIG minus - there is no library of steel profiles to choose from... so every time you need to input data for every single profile - very inconvenient... On the market there are much better free apps (Frame Design is the one very good). |
| 2021-11-12 |  | | Great for engineering practice problems. And the graphics are superb. My compliments to the app's developers. Lately,however, in the bending moment diagrams (frame element), the numbers such as newton-meters for example , the numbers on the bottom of the diagram has not been as accurate as the computations from the engineering formulas. Could you please look into it and inform me? I would greatly appreciate it. Also, it might be my android phone. I'll have it checked with my mobile phone store. |
| 2020-12-09 |  | | I'm from Philippines 🇵🇭. I would like to recommend this app! Been using this for 3 years and it helps a lot in verifying my reactions, shear&moment diagrams, and many more. I like it a lot since you can generate your work in pdf. |
| 2020-07-30 |  | | This app is an absolute beast! This is probably the easiest and fastest way to verify the manual analysis for assignments etc. I know this is a lot of facilitation even though the software is freeware, as an improvement, introduction of settlement, and springs would be nice. |
| 2020-05-31 |  | | Great app but they don't seem to respond to emails, I'd like a feature added to rotate the fixed support for vertical fixed supports, currently there is only the ground one. I emailed twice, today and 27th may. I managed to fix the problems I had. |
