### 3/5 — Really like this app

*2017-09-12*

I really like this app but it will no longer be usable if it does not get an update for iOS 11 would really like to keep using this app. Please update

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2015-11-18*

There is no use in paying for a calculation app when I then have to pay additional prices to use these calculations. A waste of money. If I could get a refund for the minimum amount I just spent, I totally would. Save your time and money and scroll right past this app!!

### 1/5 — Font Problem

*2014-01-20*

The fonts are so hair thin I can't read the app (even with reading glasses) to use it.  It may be a fantastic app but if I can't read it, it's useless.
