### 1/5 — Worthlesss

*2024-02-27*

There’s nothing to see here. One cannot preview the instructional movies without paying for them first. So I purchased the sets I needed and they still won’t download nor play. No amount of uninstalling/reinstalling nor restarting will get the instructional videos to play. There is no option inside the app for technical support. A waste of time and money…. I wasted mine, please don’t waste yours.

### 5/5 — Very good easy to follow

*2020-09-02, version 1.0.2*

Great app for anyone getting into dyneema running rigging for their sailboat.
