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
Money
This calculator does not calculate the dollars properly check it. It does not work on the money side
Incorrect
This calculator incorrectly calculates the cost per board foot. Be care using!
Works Great / Easy To Use
I use it to calculate board foot when selling wood cut on my sawmill.
Easy to use and great for any woodworker
Enjoying the App, but if possible could there be a button on the project page for numerical or alphabetical order? Or the ability to move them ourselves without deleting?
It’s great overall but when you have 100 species of wood and can’t find that one you are looking for because you add project once item comes in but then can’t find it months later because you added 20+ more species.
Just a suggestion, I would definitely enjoy that in next update if possible.
Recommending app to fellow wood workers.

Thanks for your comment. I will be updating the app this year and I will take your suggestions into consideration for the upcoming release.
Awesome - Perfect
This app is simple to use and is perfect just they way it is, please don’t ad anything or cave to the naysayers. This is the perfect app for not only someone that sells wood but also a new woodworker. I’m so happy I found and downloaded the app. It should be ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Great App
I am a furniture maker and use this appet to calculate all my lumber BF requirements and the cost. A couple additional features would great.
1. A field in each entry to identify wood species.
2. The ability to make entries for sheet goods which are generally sold by the piece not BF.
3. In the project section it be great if there was a way to calculate total project cost.
Again, this is a great app and does what it is designed to do very well. These few additions would make it an outstanding app for my purposes. It would definitely be worth paying a reasonable price (define reasonable, right :-) ) for an app with these features.

Thanks for your comment. I will be updating the app this year and I will see what I can do about including your suggestions. However, I am on the fence about the sheet goods as that was not the focus of this app - but I also understand why it would be helpful.
Love this app
Works awesome! Fast, easy, accurate! When you’re just hammering away at piling up boards into the back of the truck, this little gadget makes life real easy.
4 stars as I would like to see a price slot in the formula page that allows you to enter the total cost, and it breaks down the cost per board foot. Sometimes you just get total amounts to work with and it has me opening my calculator as well.

Clunky and buggy
Interface is clunky, click on a field and it deletes the entire field. Add waste to a project and it appears to lose the waste amount when summing up the project total board feet. Needs to have the ability to add supplier, species, and price lists
Perfect
Dimple &easy to use. Just what I need when I buy lumber.
iOS 11 broke the app
Was a great app but apple will not let it open in ios11.
App updates
I love the app but need it to be updated to iOS 11
Response from developer
An iOS 11 version is in beta testing now.
Use this app all the time.
Are y’all working on ios11 update? Thanks
Response from developer
Yes, an iOS 11 version is in testing and should be available shortly.
Needs an update
Doesn’t work with IOS 11.
Fabulous!
This simple app allows me to calculate prices for hardwood projects. I would love to be able to keep a list of lumber prices, such as "African mahogany, 4/4, $5.43" and "Walnut, 8/4, $10.69", the ability to edit names of projects, or to email or iMessage the list.
Wish it had more
It's a good little app. But if it had programmable species pricing /board foot it would make the project calculator much better. This way could make a true project item list
