However, I’ve never used one as good as the one. The ONLY flaw I had was that I couldn’t do one specific thing, create a U shaped deck. You can do all types of notches and angles but I could not find a way to make a U. ### 1/5 — Fix reg *2019-08-26, version 6.1* Fix the registration so I can save!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2019-08-08, version 6.1* How can you sell something like that! ### 3/5 — Easy to use... but errors. *2019-07-31, version 6.1* Great tool. I was excited to add accessories after my design was complete. Then it wouldnt download the accesories. Windows and doors also didnt work. And finally when i went to save my design it wouldnt let me login or register! Ugh, cant use. ### 2/5 — Has limitations *2019-06-04, version 6.1* Have to register to save your design and had a registration error multiple times. Could not put a 45 deg section where I wanted it. Download of lawn items always failed. Needs some work. ### 1/5 — Epic fail *2019-06-01, version 6.1* So I wasn’t going to write a review after being unable to set up an account, and I went to the “app support” link first to reach out to the developer. Alas, the link goes to a 404 error, the page doesn’t exist. So there is that. ### 1/5 — Cannot create account *2019-04-17, version 6.1* I keep getting a registration error. Cannot save project. Really! And you want me to purchase your products ### 1/5 — Error *2019-04-01, version 6.1* Can’t register to save or build properly. ### 2/5 — Needs a lot of improvement *2019-03-23, version 6.1* It’s a great idea to try different deck styles and be able to view on one’s own property. I like it has the measurements and different materials available. I have had the app for 1 day and can’t register, having tried repeatedly, getting “registration error” . Thus can’t save my design (thank goodness for “screenshots” on iPad. The app frequently freezes. One cant place railings only in certain areas. Cannot view different angles once deck is placed on your property photo. Now trying to place this review, I need a nickname...Lord. ### 1/5 — Unable to register *2019-03-18, version 6.1* Looks like it could be a good app, but it won’t let me register to save my work. ### 1/5 — Can’t launch *2018-08-28, version 6.0* Can’t launch the app. Can’t load the product catalog and can’t get to read the legal disclaimer. Half baked product. Test it before publishing. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2018-07-17, version 6.0* This app could be helpful if it worked at all. Tried to use it but all it does is crash. Don’t waste your time trying to use it. ### 1/5 — Way Too Basic *2018-06-17, version 6.0* This app is pretty much worthless unless your deck is going to be a square/rectangle, with notches only on a corner. it is impossible to design a deck that matches the back wall of a house that has a Chimney sticking out for example that would be in the middle of the back edge of the deck. I deleted 15 minutes after downloading. ### 2/5 — Not user friendly at all *2018-06-05, version 6.0* This is a great idea but not user friendly in the least. I work in the technology field and found this so difficult to use I became too frustrated and am now uninstalling the app. Hopefully they’ll make it a little easier for those of us who don’t have a computer science degree. ### 3/5 — Ok *2018-06-02, version 6.0* This app is just ok, kept giving me a connection established message, I would have liked to see a better list of materials needed, but it will do the job. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2018-05-03, version 6.0* Worst tool ever .. building decks for 20 years ,I always draw my plans. Looking for a tool to make it easier for the planning and permits. This program is useless. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2018-04-23, version 6.0* Needs a lot of work ### 1/5 — Unable to register/save your work on IPad Pro *2018-04-08, version 5.2* The registration and feedback forms move further off the screen as each field is entered, and cannot be repositioned. It is impossible to complete either form while the submit button is still visible. Without registering your work cannot be saved. ### 2/5 — Not for prime time *2018-04-04, version 5.2* This app has potential. First and foremost, I should not have to register to be able to save a design. And the registration process requires way too much personal information. Email address is all I will ever provide. Second, the editing capabilities are limited. This I expect will grow as the app evolves. Currently it would serve well as a prototyping tool and I was looking forward to doing just that. However, the registration issues got in the way. ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2018-02-03* Can’t log in as logon screen is below the page. Fire your developers ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Crashes *2024-10-14, version 6.1* Crashes on launch in iPadOS 17. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work !!!! *2023-11-19, version 6.1* 😡😡😡 ### 1/5 — Needs some work *2023-08-25, version 6.1* Couldn’t get app to load correctly. Kept getting error messages. ### 1/5 — Crashes on opening *2023-02-06, version 6.1* Worthless, the app crashes upon opening. ### 1/5 — Crashes before it opens *2022-10-21, version 6.1* Used it a few times with decent success but now the app is unusable since it won’t open past the loading screen on multiple devices. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2022-04-13, version 6.1* Tried this app but only to find there is no way to create an account to save my design. Just gives error with no indication of what went wrong. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work at all *2022-04-11, version 6.1* Cant sign in, cant use it, cant save product, crashes endlessly. I brought this up with a sales rep and his response was “Well its not really made for professional usage” I cant believe something this bad made it into the App Store. A company that charges so much for a premium product should have more pride in its name. ### 1/5 — Good idea, poor product *2021-04-21, version 6.1* Love the idea but doesn’t allow for changing wall size, terrain slope, stair position on a corner, etc.. Also gave incorrect board quantity and sizes... couldn’t save as error with registering... Deleted ### 1/5 — Less then a star *2020-12-29, version 6.1* This app is an embarrassment to technology. The developers failed epically. It’s completely unusable. Save your time and don’t even bother trying it. ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-10-20, version 6.1* Can’t create an account and can’t save the project ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the Camera Modes *2017-06-10, version 5.2* Love the new camera modes in the app. Being able to see my deck design on my house was a big help in seeing how the colors would match. It really is valuable knowing everything is going to look right before deciding on moving forward with a big project like deck remodeling. ### 5/5 — Made the process fun *2016-11-08, version 4.4* I had a lot of fun designing my deck with this app. Got used to different color combos with the VR mode and then built my own. Both worked great. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2016-10-31, version 4.4* What a beautiful app and long needed solution. Seeing a new deck over my old deck and trying different options before I commit. I'm so happy! ### 5/5 — penningtonsm14 *2016-10-30, version 4.4* Helped me visualize my dream deck and then share my vision with friends and family. ### 5/5 — Beautiful app *2016-06-14, version 4.3* The interactive features of this app are great! Love being able to customize the products. ### 5/5 — Fantastic way to visualize your next home project! *2016-06-13, version 4.3* AZEK Building Products is a fantastic app with beautiful scenes for designing with pavers, siding, railings and much more. You can really visualize your home design before you make a purchase! ### 5/5 — Augmented deck feature is awesome! *2015-09-08, version 4.0* Being able to see a 3D deck on the back of my house and customize tons of different styles is really great! Takes the guess work out of the question: “Will I like how that looks with my home?”. Also really like that the product displays true to size when using the free marker from AZEK ### 5/5 — Going to redo the deck in my new house *2014-08-12, version 1.0* The one that is there is pretty old. Going to use this to help design a new deck with more modern features. Never thought of using glass in fills. ### 5/5 — Best Virtual Product App *2014-08-02, version 1.0* This is the best app so far to build your custom Virtual Product for buildings. You can just simply design the pavers, railing, or infills before you purchase the material. This is a great innovation to build a glance of what you will build for your dream house or bullding products. ### 5/5 — Groundbreaking *2014-07-31, version 1.0* Easy to use, fun to create with, and i’ve never seen an app with such realistic/beautiful scenes before. Truly groundbreaking app that sets the bar for future applications. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
