### 3/5 — Counter Alarm

*2025-04-21, version 3.10*

Der Counteralarm ist nur zu hören wenn die App im Vordergrund ist.

### 3/5 — Great for learning

*2023-11-06*

Has my camera and lenses. Not all calculators have complete information, ie: app is lacking settings for the star stills etc. I would love to see info for macro situations with reverse rings or extension tubes as well.

### 1/5 — What a joke!

*2022-05-25, version 3.9*

Downloaded the app to try it out and every thing is locked out until you purchase it. No chance of trying it first. Don’t waste your time on this.

### 1/5 — You have to pay for the features

*2021-05-14, version 3.7*

Not worthy

### 5/5 — 5 stars for quality product and good support

*2021-04-13, version 3.7*

I have purchased full version since 2015 and after 6 years I give it a 5-stars review. I’m really impressed with the hard work to make this app better and better.

Please keep it up 👍
Thank you.

### 2/5 — Broken now in iOS13

*2020-04-11, version 2.9*

Such a shame :( This WAS a really great app but it simply stopped working. There’s no way to add cameras and lenses to a new set. Nothing happens when I tap on them. Therefore the app is far less useful than it was. Please fix it!

UPDATE: see dev response. I checked again this morning in Dark Mode and the camera selections were visible and worked ok creating a new set. Pleased to find that was just an OS issue! However, I still can’t EDIT a set. When I tap a camera, instead of toggling it, it goes to the details page. It’s as if it’s forgotten it’s in Edit mode. I hope you get this working as I really like the app and want to be able to recommend it to others. Thanks for the response!

### 4/5 — Simple with great design & watch app

*2020-02-05, version 2.9*

Love the UI, simple UX, and a convenient extension through the watch app for timer

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2019-09-04*

Downloaded this app today, but not able to add equipment at all. Keep getting message telling me to check my internet connection (it is connected and working), then when trying to access the website through the Help menu, it just freezes. 

I guess that is $10 down the drain...

### 2/5 — No new bodies or lenses!

*2019-06-03, version 2.9*

Use to be a great app while it was being actively updated with new bodies and lenses! Look elsewhere now!!!

### 1/5 — Can’t add any thing in to My Set

*2018-11-25, version 2.9*

when i try to add Camera , Lenses , and ND Filter , it says “ Loading Failed check your internet connection , But nothing is wrong with my connection. So i think some thing is wrong with this fake app.
