Keeps crashing. Unusable
I used to use this app and loved it. Now with the latest iPhone OS it crashes, even with my older iPad. It’s too bad the app was never updated.
Removed download image feature
Newest upgrade removed the download image feature- why?

Thank you for your review. Please email me at XingAppsLLC@gmail.com and we can review this issue in detail.
Poorly designed. Poor controls.
Can’t see the back and forth buttons on an iPhone 13. They are hidden under the clock and battery icons on the screen. Difficult app to use. Not worth the frustration.

Thank you for your feedback. We just submitted an update that solve this issue. Thank you for your support.

And don’t get this very simple yet clumsy app. Easier to use paper and pencil. It can’t do anything that you can’t do…and faster. Would be great if there were more frames plus accommodation for double and triple matting. OK, if you are hopeless with math, this will help. Otherwise…fergitaboutit.
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback. This app is intended to be simple for those who are not able to do the math by hand. I'm sorry that you felt it was clumsy, the guided interface is intended to help users through the calculation. The app previously had a single screen for all inputs and that caused users to get confused as well. We will look into other solutions for improvement.
WORST APP IN THE HISTORY OF APPS!!
Will not let you put your n any measurements!! Changes them every time!! Completely ripped off my money for app!!
Response from developer
I'm sorry that you had issues with this app. Since all payments are handled through Apple you will need to reach out to Apple to get a refund. I won't inhibit you from getting a refund. We are working to improve this app. Kind regards,
Terrible app cannot figure it out hate it
I hate this app and I would like my money back
Excellent
Im an amateur photographer and new to mat framing, using a Logan mat cutter, this app is almost essential for me. Well worth the purchase!
Overlap and Double Window Mat Substandard
The overlap calculation is not clear and does not calculate the correct opening.
There is no double window mat feature
There is no allowance feature which is a standard 1/8” across the board when calculating and ordering frames.

Great Reference Tool
I've used this app many times and it never fails to get the job done. I find it easy to use and takes the guess work out of marking the opening for your mat.
Worked great!!!
Used this calculator to cut my very first matting ever came out perfect!! App did what I wanted it to do.
Finally used it!
I’ve had this app on my phone for maybe 3 years now (at least), because being a DIY’er I knew I’d need it eventually, and since it’s been 20 years since I worked in the framing dept at Michaels I basically forgot everything I learned, haha! Anyway, cut some mats last night and this app calculated the perfect dimension. Great app, can’t wait to cut more mats!

Don’t waste your time
This app is not only useless but has a terrible, outdated UI. It does not support more than one cut-out in its calculations, which seems to be a pretty standard use-case for a “Mat Calculator”. Did absolutely nothing for me, better off with pencil and paper until these developers try a little harder.

Updated
App has now been updated to work under iOS 11.
If you cut your own mats or do framing, this is a handy app to have. Not only has it saved me from making stupid math errors, but it allows saving mat cutting data for future reference.

Matt Calculator
Brilliant app for working out calculations when framing pictures. Helps with working out frame sizes, starting with picture size, working out mount width, and giving you the frame sizes.
It allows you to put in overall size of a sheet of mount board and work out how to optimise the amount of smaller same sized boards you can cut.
Also allows you to put an image into a mount board and play with matching colour of mount to image colours. Love to play with this app. The more I play the more I find it helpful.
I have had issues with freezing but it is getting far better as time goes by.

Updated App ROCKS!!!!!👍
It had been awhile since I used this app and to be honest with you I thought it sucked back then.
NOW, since this app has been updated I find it even more useful. I love the additional features such as the Mat Board Optimizer and Proportional Scale. Awesome!
When matting a photo or project, you need to know what you want to achieve and then this app will help you conceive and plan your matting and framing requirements. It would help if you are already familiar with how to perform mat cutting but not necessary if you can perform some basic critical thinking and aren't an of entitled spoon feed me or read my mind kinda person.
I love the app now and it is even better with the ability to load a picture from my photo album or even take a pic on the fly to visualize the mat. Heck you can even change the mat color too.
Thanks again for the update!

Trust the other bad reviews, they're spot on.
Absolutely terrible
Not useful at all. Not intuitive and complicated. Pen and paper is easier and faster.
Artist
Hate it. Pencil and paper easier
Really useful !
Great app. Quick and easy to use. I wouldn't be without it!
A very fine app that is easy to use.
This is a clean and easy way to get the layout with out a pencil and paper. It's nearly there for me though because the Mat Optimization tool instantly shuts the app off and closes it. It doesn't freeze, it just quits. I have an iPhone 5s. If this can be fixed I have some suggestions for the app.
