  • Total RipOff

    Don't waste your money!!!!! This app does nothing:( When you try to use the features it just takes you to a screen that says you need to pay $199.99 to purchase the full app??? I want my money back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Developer Response

    Our apologies. The intent was to provide the App for $4.99 to those previous owners of the NESC and the NESC Handbook. Unfortunately, the process was a bit convoluted. Thus, the App is now available as an annual subscription for a fraction of the cost to all user.
  • Very miss leading

    App doesn't do much without purchasing the $200 in app purchase. They bait you into spending $4.99 for access to code interpretations.

  • Clever app for in-field use

    In case it's not obvious, all you get for $4.99 is the app interface. If you want to actually access the code, it's another $200.

  • Principal eng.

    Misleading description. To get to the useful info requires purchasing premium content for $200 more. Wish I could get my $5 back. Feels like a scam. This was a waste of time.

  • Questionable

    You pay for the app ($5) then notified that you must have "premium content" to actually view the code. Now I would not expect to obtain full access to the NESC for $5, but:
    1. There is no information as to what the premium content is.
    2. The prompt also indicates you must purchase the code in addition to premium content
    3. I have purchased the 2017 NESC in hard copy and PDF formats...if this is not adequate it should be made abundantly clear that in my case I will need to purchase a 3rd copy of the Code for the app to be of any practical use .... prior to the purchase of the app.
    4. I would have either purchased the app and the in app purchase in lieu of the PDF and hard copy or I would have not purchased the app. They are totally redundant purchases

  • Don't waste your time

    There is nothing relating to the 2017 NESC, aside from the table of contents and a dictionary of terms.... They want you to spend $5 on an app in order to be prompted to spend another couple hundred of dollars in order to actually see the code. This app is useless for my personal needs.
