### 1/5 — Unhappy long standing customer

*2023-07-11, version 3.1.12*

Really unhappy that I have purchased this app previously at nearly £10 - had it for years, used it often. Purchased a new phone and I’ve had to repurchase it. Even though I’ve used the same email address to repurchase. I feel like that is unfair.

### 1/5 — Rip off

*2023-06-14, version 3.1.12*

Really poor app

### 5/5 — Essential for commissioning.

*2023-04-19, version 3.1.12*

I have had this app for a few years and the update is amazing!!!! Everything is always up to date, easy to use l.  has many variety of MCB, fuses and MCCBs values available. 

Well done to whoever made it.

### 4/5 — Insightful

*2021-08-18, version 3.1.6*

No, not Mccb’s but type 4 3871.
Seeing that you had the Mccb’s gave me hope for the 3871’s
Other than that it’s a great app.
Bad mood, sorry for the gut reaction.

### 5/5 — Cert Time Saver

*2021-07-15, version 3.1.6*

Brilliant app.  Saves valuable time when fillling out certs especially for MCCB max zs.  Awesome.

### 5/5 — Give it a go

*2021-07-07, version 3.1.6*

I couldn’t find a Zs reading for a breaker so I brought this app and I’m very impressed by it. Will be very handy on site for doing periodic’s

### 5/5 — Review

*2021-06-15, version 3.1.6*

Excellent app and easy to use

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2021-01-20, version 3.1.4*

I downloaded this app last year and it was great very handy, There was an issue with the software but the developers was extremely helpful and went out of their way to fix this issue, I’ve recently downloaded the updated version and can honestly say it’s gold excellent stuff

### 4/5 — Great app but...

*2020-12-02, version 3.1.3*

Love this app very handy when needing to remember figures,values etc. However since iOS 14 sadly does no longer display correctly on my iPhone xs which deems some of the functions unusable atm - hopefully a fix for this is in the pipeline?.

### 5/5 — Electrician

*2020-10-23, version 3.1.3*

Constantly improving and adding more information to the app
