User reviews

So Great

No one else has done this yet – an awesome resource for crane specs and such. It makes my DP think I’m smarter than I am.

A most for all Grips in the film industry

Bar none the best app for Grips in the film industry. Has a wealth of information to get you through the most challenging gigs.

Doesn't work

All I get is a black screen

Total waste of money

Useless

Really?

I remember when the printed version of the Grip 411 came out so many years ago. Holding it in your hand and flipping thru the pages and being able to see a few pictures of gear and have a few phone numbers seemed pretty cool. Cut to present day with computers and smartphones. This is nothing but the book built into an app and by today's standards falls 1000 miles short of what key grips of today need at their disposal.
There is so much missing that makes me believe if a vendor did not pay a fee they were excluded. I have put more info than this on my phone and in my Dropbox and Airsharing folders. Either make vast improvements with updates
( you should not have released this app if it was not ready) or die on the vine like so many other apps. ***
