What's New in Board Feet Easy Calculator

2.0.2

October 12, 2017

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Upgraded for iOS 11. By popular demand the app itself remains unchanged and as simple as ever. It should be instantly familiar as the user interface has been kept the same (other than the UI changes made by Apple in the new operating system). So the functionality remains exactly the same as the original. This version requires iOS 8 or newer, so users with older iOS versions should continue to use version 2.0.1 as it is functionally the same.

Divided by 4?

Why is the amount off by a factor of 4?

Unfortunately its not very good

Not user friendly and zero information on how to use or enter the info. Such as “thickness” no one uses this as a term in measuring. they should have diameter, radius and circumference on here for calculations for board feet. Such as and 8’ log that is 20” in diameter/62.8” circumference.

Great layout, but could be improved

After I updated phones, I lost my favorite board feet calculator which included a material cost list you could edit all the choices of lumber with price per board foot and when selecting your species it would pull in the cost and calculate. I had a large list in mine from my supplier and I could pick individual species from the list before calculating the board footage for different components and it would use the price in the material list. It was so handy to have a lumber cost sheet built into my calculator that would work together as long as I kept my prices up to date. Please add this idea to an update!

Not sure it works

I enter 12”x12”x1/2” and the price of $6.99 to get a board foot price. I hit calculate and it gives me 2.39. What the heck does that tell me?

Thanks

Great app would be really really great if I could export the project to email or notes
