Review summary

Users find the Project Helper app simple and effective for calculating material lists quickly, especially helpful for those with little construction experience. However, many reviews note significant limitations, such as restricted deck design options (square/rectangle only), deck size caps, absence of key features like stairs and varied fencing, and intrusive ads that impact usability. The lack of metric unit support is a barrier for international users. The developer's quick responses to feedback are appreciated, and with improvements, the app could become more functional and less frustrating.

Pros

Easy to use with simple interface helpful for average users with little to no construction knowledge.
Accurately calculates material lists and quantities, aiding in project estimation and quotes.
Developer is responsive and quick to reply to user feedback.
Free version provides a basic but functional tool for quick material calculations.
Simplicity helps in quickly generating lumber lists and sharing them for quotes.

Cons

App is limited to square or rectangular deck designs, lacking the ability to create wraparound or irregular shapes.
Deck size is restricted, with a maximum deck size around 24x16 feet, smaller than many users require.
Lacks advanced features such as stair calculators, spindle calculators, railing designs, and detailed fencing options.
Intrusive ads appear immediately on app launch, with no option to close quickly, irritating users.
No support for metric units, only imperial units are supported, limiting usability for non-US users.
