## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Scam beware!

*2025-10-12, version 5.50*

They offer „free” app and after install there’s no free use at all! What’s the point? Why trick people like that?

### 1/5 — Awkward to use

*2025-02-04, version 5.50*

I just want a basic run and rise tool with plumb and birds mouth depth

### 1/5 — Langue

*2024-04-17*

J’aurais aimé être avisé que la version langue française ne se change pas d’ans l’application pourtant c’est bien écrit anglais français

**Developer response:** Nous nous excusons pour cette erreur.
Nous avons converti une partie de l'application en français, mais nous n'avons pas encore terminé. 
L'App Store a automatiquement détecté les fichiers français lors de la précédente mise à jour de notre version. Les langues supportées ont alors été automatiquement modifiées sur notre page App Store.
Nous travaillons actuellement à la sortie de la version française.

### 1/5 — Roof guide

*2023-06-10, version 5.33*

Dno, nie da się z tego korzystać , ciagle wywala z apki. Nie polecam, pieniądze wyrzucone w błoto.

### 4/5 — Standard sizes

*2025-07-03, version 5.50*

Materials often come in standard lengths due to availability or manufacture. Composite decking for example.App needs to include this.

### 5/5 — Nice App for site.

*2024-09-15, version 5.46*

Just sat and played around with different roof types to get used to it. Great for hipped roofs. You can even set it for chamfered hip or plain dropped hip. Recommend playing around with it to get used to app. Then on site its quick to set up.

### 5/5 — The app that hits the trifecta

*2024-05-23, version 5.46*

This app cuts time, removes the need for book reference and span tables, and allows you to get perfect results every time. Ive been using this for a few years now and its never skipped a beat. Best purchase i've made through app store. 11/10 on the service and follow up regarding some questions i had using the app at times too. Absolutely chuffed. Thanks for making this essential tool! cheers

### 5/5 — Well worth it

*2018-09-17, version 3.0*

I found it easy to use and makes it very quick on job site .don’t use my red book anymore the red book get damaged as well 
So I don’t need to replace 
And the app does a lot more things

### 5/5 — Roofers Guide

*2016-01-03, version 2.20*

This is like having an indispensable new tool in your kit box! I used to use string lines and bevels to set out my roof. Now I am confident enough to enter the basic dimensions, cut in on the ground, before taking it up the scaffold and nailing it together. 
   When I had a problem with the app, I e mailed support, and they replied on Boxing Day! It transpired that I wasu entering data wrongly!
   Money well spent.

### 5/5 — Adam@Anlconstructions

*2015-03-13, version 1.01*

Finally no more forgetting my roofing book and it's easy to use and does much more than the book!!

### 5/5 — Outback Engineering

*2015-02-18, version 1.50*

By far the best roofing app I have ever come across. The ease in which the screen is to read and the speed in which it calculates. Using it everyday. Awesome!
