### 4/5 — Love it!

*2016-02-03, version 5.1.1*

This app is perfect for me i am in the landscaping industry. I am disappointed with the ads. There should be a pro version with no ads.

### 4/5 — Useful... And stable

*2013-10-22, version 2.3.5*

I have been using My Pie Interactive's Carpenters Helper but it crashes enough to make me a look for an alternate - this app right here. 

It adds metric and imperial lengths together, very useful for Canadian users who work with metric codes and imperial lumber!  

The app could use higher contrast for its interface, bit works well otherwise.

### 4/5 — Good

*2012-10-21, version 2.3*

Good

### 3/5 — Carpenter

*2012-08-21, version 2.3*

So far so good.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2012-07-17, version 2.1*

It does everything u need it to do. As for the guy who says it will not convert 5'3" into inches. He didnt try to learn how. If u need to convert to inches then u type your fraction for sample 5'3" then press m,cm,or mm then push inches and it will give u 63" very easy

### 3/5 — So far so good

*2012-05-25, version 1.3*

I've used many different feet and inches calcs over the years this one is as good as any the buttons are small but manageable one suggestion is to be able to toggle the decimal display between decimals and inches with fractions that would be handy

### 4/5 — Not Bad

*2011-05-24, version 1.3*

Just downloaded this app. It's the only one I could find that was close to the real thing. However, i'm not totally sure it was worth the 3 bucks i paid for it. I do have one suggestion though, and hope they might be added in the next update. It would be helpful to be able enter, say 5'-3" and press convert to inches. Working at an architectural firm, we usually work in feet and inches, but often work with other disciplines that use just inches. What would even be more helpful, would be able to turn the decimal display into an inches display. That way you wouldn't have to covert. Both types would display at the same time. Looking forward to seeing more updates.

### 3/5 — RPN

*2011-05-02, version 1.2*

Can we have a RPN option?

### 1/5 — Not working after last update

*2014-11-06, version 5.1.0*

### 1/5 — Problem with inch fractions

*2013-12-08, version 2.3.5*

I was not able to enter fractions of inches... Following the example in "help" did no work for me so I deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally

*2013-09-29, version 2.3.4*

Doesn't even follow order of operations. Fail.

### 2/5 — Huh?

*2017-01-06, version 5.1.1*

I'm a novice with this type of calculator but instructions would be helpful on how to do the conversions

### 2/5 — Not intuitive. No Tutorial

*2016-12-30, version 5.1.1*

App is difficult to figure out and not intuitie. The tutorial doesn't existin online so is of no help.

### 2/5 — Pretty annoying

*2016-04-01, version 5.1.1*

Not intuitive.  Can never remember which button to hit to place fraction correctly.  Too complicated

### 2/5 — Tutorial

*2015-11-03, version 5.1.1*

Can't hit the tutorial button since it's covered by an ad.  Useless with out instruction.

### 2/5 — piece

### 3/5 — Current version won't open

### 5/5 — Very Useful

*2024-03-19, version 7.0.4*

When I first started using this app several years ago, it was very frustrating with the adds constantly popping up. More recently that problem has been addressed. Now I can use the app and be very productive. It’s been very beneficial to me in my line of work.

### 5/5 — Perfect for construction

*2016-12-28, version 5.1.1*

All my drawings are in millimeters which is a royal pain for my fitters. This calc converts them to feet and inches to the nearest 1/16 fraction. Beautiful thing.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2016-01-18, version 5.1.1*

Love this app. Does all of the calculations i need in ft & in. It is so good I upgraded to Pro to support this free version. Little did I know that Pro has a ton more features beyond just a calculator! Btw the tutorial button is the '?' towards the top not under any ad.

### 5/5 — Calculator

*2015-01-15, version 5.1.1*

It's a great calculator thank you so much

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2014-12-11, version 5.1.1*

I'm a hvac/r student and right now taking blue print reading this helps me out and got me through a test far faster then the rest of the class. This also helps me in the field with trying to figure out if the roof top unit can fit or if the furnace will fit in the space

### 5/5 — Good

*2014-10-25, version 4.1.0*

This is a must for contractors and it's free.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2014-04-12, version 3.0*

I have used it for many months and just updated it today. The new look makes it better than it ever was. The keyboard layout looks less crowded.

### 5/5 — Très très bon

*2013-03-11, version 2.3.1*

Très très bonne calculatrice, il ne manque que les degré minute seconde.
