## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No use

*2022-07-03*

You can only input height of stairs and length of steps and that’s it as if this app already knows the the base length of my stairs 
Useless if I can’t input my desired base length

### 1/5 — Sorry but it’s not worth £1.99

*2021-02-24*

I brought this app as the clean look appealed to me. However, it’s a bit too clean. Even a basic angle calculator function is missing. Please update to include the basics. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Too basic

*2020-07-09*

For a paid app I expected to be able to set more than two parameters and I expected much more detail. I could have used a calculator for free. Or a free stair app.

### 1/5 — Pire application de calculs d’escaliers a date.

*2019-05-27*

Vraiment pas pratique.
Probablement le pire de tous

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2019-03-18*

Don’t waste your $1.99. No help at all. Can find staircase calculators free on line that are much much better. Who’s the idiot that made this app? I know the sucker that paid $1.99 for it.....me.

### 1/5 — Not very useful

*2018-07-03*

There are free apps and middle school math that is as helpful as this math. Look for something else

### 2/5 — Limited

*2022-12-02*

No way to either adjust angle or base measurement . Just wasted my money.

### 2/5 — Carpenter

*2016-01-28*

The main drawback with this app is that all dimensions (whether feet or inches) have to be entered as "decimals", not as whole "feet" and "inches" with "sixteenths", "eights", or "quarters" . Consequently, this makes it cumbersome to use in the field where we use measuring tapes, I would not have purchased it had this been made clear in the app description.

### 3/5 — Degrees

*2019-08-06*

Needs a section in the app that gives you the degrees of the stringer at the top

**Developer response:** Thanks for the suggestion Micko, I’ll put that on the todo list!

### 5/5 — Technician

*2022-03-14*

A very handy app.
