## Review summary

Reviews are overwhelmingly negative due to intrusive ads, monetization, and missing or nonfunctional features. Users report not being able to calculate costs or include essential items, and describe the app as confusing and useless for real construction estimates. A small minority offer brief positives or note limited functionality (e.g., certain items or area inputs), but the consensus is that the app fails as a practical estimator.

### Pros

- Some catalog items exist (e.g., range hood) and can be added
- A couple of reviews express gratitude or positive sentiment
- There are mentions of basic area/cost calculations being available, though implementation is unclear

### Cons

- Excessive, intrusive ads that appear on opening and during use
- Free-to-paid model with in-app purchases; users feel it’s a money grab
- Missing essential construction items (lumber, baseboard, crown molding) and basic cost calculations
- Not functional or reliable for real projects; many users call it unusable or junk
- Poor usability and a steep learning curve; unclear unit support (e.g., feet) and basic calculation tasks may fail
