### 5/5 — Worked great for what it is attended for

*2026-07-24*

Used to help the McGuire to run better

**Developer response:** Thank you for a good review and 5 stars.  David

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-06-07*

As someone who is just learning PLC Ladder Logic, I’ve found this tool to be very helpful.

**Developer response:** Thank you for expressing the value of this app and 5 stars.  David

### 5/5 — Great to learn the basics

*2026-05-18, version 6.9*

Very enjoyable, good to grasp the basics of PLC logic!

### 4/5 — Great for teaching the basics of PLC logic.

*2026-04-19, version 6.9*

I was pleasantly surprised at how simple it was to get  making ladder logic off the bat.

### 3/5 — Neat app.

*2026-04-14*

Really neat app. Could use a lot of work as far as app functionality. “Dave” should spend more time working on the functionality and features of this  app and less time worrying about bible apps…….

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest feedback and 3 stars.  But, honestly the main reasons I spent over a 1000 (thousand) hours developing this app was to first - provide an option for individuals who are looking for purpose in this life and second - provide a fun and effective way to learn basic PLC programming.  David

### 3/5 — It’s good and works

*2026-03-25*

You just have to figure it out. Not good instructions. Just a list of functions and parameters. On the simulation.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your honest feedback and 3 stars. When you first install the app, There are numerous "tips" yellow dialog boxes displayed to help guide a new user to develop their first program and reference to a YouTube "Quick Start" video to actually see how to use the basic functions.  The tips can always be turned back on or off in the "Settings".

### 5/5 — Great learning app

*2026-02-11*

Very helpful and educational, also fun. Please continue the great work, and let us know if there’s a way to fund you to keep adding more practice programs.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your recommending the app, desire for more exercises and 5 stars. I appreciate your offer for funding, that means a lot to me.  But, I make these apps from my heart and God has blessed me with enough resources to make these apps possible.  The exercises take a tremendous amount of time and work. The development software I use may not be available in the near future.  David

### 5/5 — This is Awesome

*2026-02-08*

This is pretty cool.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive comments and 5 stars.  David

### 5/5 — Yes this is the one if your an E&I looking to dip your feet a little deeper into plc madness

*2026-02-07*

Fantastic! Wish there was a cheat to check what’s missing when doing the projects but all in all pretty blown away please add more projects cheers 👍👍

**Developer response:** Thank you for taking time to recommend this app to others and your 5 stars.  Email me at davidwhiteapps@gmail.com if you would like some help.  David

### 5/5 — Great app for learning ladder logic

*2025-11-25, version 6.9*

After working with PLCs for years but only with the exterior instruments and switches feeding the inputs and the relays and things fed by the outputs, I really wanted to have more insight into what the PLC is actually doing. This app is great and I really like the exercises it gives you to have a go at. Once learning the symbols and the language of the plc, it’s a lot like having imaginary relays on a screen doing exactly what physical relays would be doing in a traditional panel. Thanks for making this app David .
