### 1/5 — Waste of money

*2021-02-21*

Spent 9.99 for something that doesn’t even work, complete waste of money and constantly crashes. DONT BE SCAMMED.... I WANT MY MONEY BACK

### 1/5 — Crashes Constantly

*2021-01-26, version 1.0*

On the face of it, it looks like this app would be a good mobile version of SCAL, but it just crashes constantly. Doesn’t appear to have functionality to save to iCloud, just options of Dropbox or google drive but crashes when trying to save to either. Really disappointing.

### 1/5 — Does not work. Save your money.

*2021-01-17*

I have this on desktop anduse it daily for work. Was very excited to see now works on I pad but total fail. Don't waste your bucks. BTW APPLE I WANT A REFUND ABSOLUTELY UNSATISFIED WITH THIS PRODUCT.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-01-01*

Won’t import images at all. Waste of money and time

### 1/5 — Don’t be scammed!

*2020-12-15*

Does not work. Crashes. Import/export features do not work! Total scam! 
I had the desktop version and was excited to see an iPad version. Too bad it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Not Ready for Consumer Use

*2023-11-09*

For $10, I figured I could waste the money if it lived up to its pathetic reviews, and it did!  The main issue was no text appeared in the pop-up dialog boxes, so you didn’t know what the buttons were controlling.  I dunno if the foreground color was the same as the background color or the text simply was missing, but this makes it very hard to configure anything.  At the time of this writing, there were sixteen 1-star reviews and one 3-star review.  Clearly, this is why.  Using 5.004.  If they fixed this background/foreground issue, it might actually be a useful program.  I did try to send my project to the cutter, but the software froze at that point.  Maybe I didn’t have something set right, but how could I tell when you can’t read any text labels?

I can’t even believe this passed Apple’s QC scutiny much less the developer’s.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t not work

*2023-07-29*

I paid for this app and it doesn’t work properly.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2022-12-22*

Can’t create a account or login. App crashes in the middle of creating a design. The desktop app is good, but the ipad app is TRASH!!

### 1/5 — Once again… a disappointment

*2022-05-11*

There are issues with the “Preferences” panel.

Some sections are missing text explaining choices, selections and check-boxes.

The execution of this version’s release hasn’t been well thought out. Definitely no quality check before releasing any SCAL iOS apps.

Refund please.

### 1/5 — Can not access saved files

*2022-03-04*

Horrible you should be ashamed selling this and no access to saved files.

### 1/5 — Do not purchase SCAM

*2022-01-24*

Does not upload your files!!!!

### 1/5 — Do not buy!

*2021-12-19*

Clunky, crashes, I need a refund!

### 1/5 — No text

*2021-11-14*

Nothing shows up in menus for text, it only has a toggle switch or where you can put measurements, no text so you can’t see what you are toggling on and off. DISAPPOINTED!!! And annoyed!

### 1/5 — Do not buy!! Total scam. Doesn’t deserve any stars

*2021-09-27, version 1.0*

I have the full version which works a treat, unfortunately my laptop doesn’t, so instead of buying a new laptop I downloaded this version to my iPad. BIG mistake! When I try to save my work it just freezes.
On research I found that problems with this have been known for sometime yet it’s still being sold! Daylight robbery. Disgusting way for a software company to behave

### 1/5 — So not worth it

*2021-04-21*

I paid for this app and it doesn’t work it keeps kicking me out I can’t go back to what I was working on it wont allow me to export my project this app seems like it would be great if it worked you guys need to do better fix the bugs I would really like my money back since it doesn’t work your only getting one star because I have to put something

### 3/5 — Has potential

*2021-06-01*

After reading all the horrible reviews I was extremely hesitant but gave it a shot.  I think I’m glad I did but not 100% sure yet.   It seems to work great with my iPad so far.  Only issue as of yet is I forgot to save my work earlier before trying to export.  I should have known better.  During export it hiccuped and would not restore my work.  I’m not having near the issue the other reviewers have had though.  If you are used to Sure Cuts A lot 5 on pc there will be no learning curve whatsoever. All icons and menus are in the exact same locations and serve the same functions.  I almost feel it’s easier to navigate and operate than on PC.  One issue I do have is menu options being the same color as the background so they can’t be read.  Again if your accustom to SCAL5 this isn’t a deal breaker because you probably know what it says anyway but I would love to see this fixed.  Fix these couple of things and I will bump it up to 5 stars.
