Unable to do decimal points and therefore inaccurate
5 stars if you were able to do so

Useless

This rafter App literally provides NO HELP in planning out the location of plumb and seat cuts in a rafter, the animation showing what angles various cuts should be provides no reference to plumb and level, making it absolutely useless. App FAIL
