## Review summary

Reviews praise speed, offline formula database, and ease of use, but criticisms focus on price and recurring fees, missing advanced features, and reliability issues; overall it's a convenient on-site helper for DIY or fieldwork, with willingness to upgrade for long-term use by some.

### Pros

- Very quick and easy to input/find information.
- Offline library of formulas for material estimation in one place.
- Handy construction app that speeds up field calculations.
- Good for elevations and unit conversions; helps on-site workflows.

### Cons

- Pricey; recurring fees and poor value for DIY/non-professionals.
- Lacks many advanced features and inputs (no seat cut for rafters, no stair angle option for baluster spacing).
- Occasional bugs where calculations don’t run or totals don’t calculate.
- Not perceived as professional-grade for pros.
