needs your phone number and super long tutorial.. just needed ft in calc.. not games
bad app doesn't work then pulls money out of your account for a subscription that was never agreed to
want a refund. app wouldn't let me use it. kept wanting me to start over, then tell me I already paid. explain.
app works amazing would give 5 BUT I cancelled a week ago about 2 days before renewal. BUT THEY ARE STILL TRYING TO CHARGE MY ACCOUNT THE LAST 3 DAYS FIX THE PROBLEM IF I LOSE MONET ON AN ACCOUNT I CANCELLED AND DELETED
its not worth $30 a month for an estimator I wont use, didnt even download it for the estimator but even then its not worth it
wants your phone number now I'm getting spam calls don't trust this app!
stating a "7 day free trial" then proceed to try and take $31 from you is about as crooked as one can get, false advertising and probably wrote the reviews in here themselves. get outta here with you're dumpster selves
I had this app and I think thatvis overpriced, it was $10.99 and now is 29.99 there are other better apps with less cost.
UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES. I installed app but never signed up now being charged WEEKLY? How is this possible? WANT MY MONEY BACK NOW!!
would not work keep crashing don't used garbage
Not paying $30 a month as a homeowner thatll only use it a few times a year.
# 1, its 15 bucks a month. #2, I don't hove my cell phone out to Anyone! To many spam calls!
No password wouldn't let me in
I didn't really get to use it, not for $30 per month. maybe others are willing to pay for it
so far, it's ok ★★Update★★ I wish the app was able to be less specific on one job per scope and be more even later out with less details. ★★ Response ★★ I feel that the app should allow more than one job description and for it to not be as detailed. don't get me wrong, I enjoy the app. it's a great tool. have used it a few times to help build a few bids / invoices / scopes
poor
it forgets certain stuff like shorting boards screws and lag bolts little stuff but you have to adjust it yourself before sending it to a customer..
The price keeps going up. when I first downloaded it a year ago it was $2.99 a month, a few months later it went up to $10.99 a month. I didn't mind that because of how helpful it is. Now it has gone to $29.99 a month! Not Acceptable at all. Especially considering half the features dont work most of the time. it literally won't give me any other option. I cant do anything now unless I pay the $29.99, well that's not happening. I'll just go back to my previous system, it worked perfectly anyway.
