## Review summary

While SketchAndCalc Area Calculator is appreciated for its usefulness in measuring irregular areas and strong scaling features, many Android users find it difficult to use on mobile due to imprecise touch inputs and frustrating login/account issues. The very short trial duration combined with a confusing subscription model causes dissatisfaction. Some users find inaccuracies in calculations, and others struggle with registration and verification emails. Despite these issues, it remains helpful especially when used on desktop or with patience.

### Pros

- Useful for measuring irregularly shaped areas such as fields or rooms.
- Has a scaling feature that works well for calculating areas based on pictures or maps.
- Includes support for various units of measurement including imperial and metric.
- Helpful and fairly intuitive to use on larger devices like desktop web interface or phones, once familiar.
- Offers accurate area calculation under certain conditions and useful for engineering or land measurement purposes.

### Cons

- Trial period on Android app is very short, causing frustration among users.
- Difficult or frustrating to use on mobile devices due to poor touch input precision and drawing difficulties.
- Account creation and login process is problematic; users experience loops between app and web pages and delays or lack of verification emails.
- Subscription model perceived as unfair since many feel basic area calculation should be free and continuous use limited by trial.
- Lack of advanced input options such as entering exact distances or angles, making precise drawing challenging on Android.
- Users report app sometimes inaccurate in area calculation and sometimes buggy exporting or waiting for verification emails.
