Bug fixes and performance improvements

User reviews

Unable to input info

Not able to input necessary info beyond tool and material. Tool path type, machine spindle and tool holder are not working.

Buggy

Buggy, same as on website. Won’t even open right now

Registration is broken

New user on a phone. I type an email and password, and a ton of other details, only to have it tell me I’ve already registered the email address. I had to go to the web to finish registering.
The interface CONSTANTLY hides the submit button while the keyboard is open. Neither policy opens a browser to read them, so I “agreed” to something I was never allowed to read. Very clunky.

I know this makes me a newbie, but I couldn’t even find Al 6061, an alloy of four metals that were never available in a combination of more than three, let alone by the stock number of any metal supplier I use.

Fine, it’s a gimmick to get high end pro’s to buy Harvey Tools. Hobbyists need not apply. Don’t burn your email address on this.

Website works better

App kind of blows, but the website is fine.

Doesn’t find tools even with the Harvey part number

I entered the number right off the package and it couldn’t find the tool. No easy way to search for end mills by size or spec either. I’m not sure how anyone is supposed to use this app.
