I would normally connect with the app developer but when you tap for App support, it takes you to an unused web address, plus the app was last updated (at time of reviewing) two years ago, so obviously no longer a priority for the developer. ### 3/5 — Polovina toho nefunguje *2024-10-07, version 1.6.9* Na Androidu jsem měl lepší zdarma. A když jsem tu chtěl další funkce dokoupit, zasekla se úplně ### 4/5 — Great *2024-08-11, version 1.6.9* It’s great! ### 3/5 — Error *2024-05-03, version 1.6.9* I bought this but after using leveler tool, its ask me to upgrade? I thought i bought this app already, but when i click upgrade the app hang, didnt show anything ### 3/5 — Improvements *2024-03-21, version 1.6.9* The metal ruler needs to be continuous for measuring. ### 5/5 — Excelente multiherramienta *2024-01-06, version 1.6.9* Para personas que nos gusta investigar y hacer cálculos mas precisos en diferentes ámbitos, es una excelente herramienta y muy completa ### 5/5 — Xx *2023-11-10, version 1.6.9* Xx ### 2/5 — Not fixed *2023-08-07, version 1.6.9* Inch is completely broken on iPhone SE 2016. Ruler App which is free was updated 1 mo. ago, but this app which is paid was updated 5 mo. ago. Why?? ### 5/5 — Mivel *2023-05-24, version 1.6.9* Maravilloso ### 5/5 — Toolbox *2023-03-11, version 1.6.9* Ideal for ease of finding useful tools, simple as that. Its easier to find your tools when they’re together in one place. Have to use the magnifier these days. Really find it a must have tool. ### 5/5 — Very handy and well designed app *2023-02-19, version 1.6.8* I’ve been using iMetalBox since it first appeared in the App Store and it’s still the best app of its kind. 5/5 ### 4/5 — Everything works except for the ruler *2022-11-08, version 1.6.7* All the tools are fantastic. However, the ruler is not calibrated for iPhone 13. Can that please be updated. I would absolutely give 5 stars if this could be fixed. ### 5/5 — LDO^CKO *2022-10-15, version 1.6.7* Superb! Treasures To All Involved. Used bubble level for months. Now owner of all. Great features. Great marketing to have a ‘time-run-out’. And. It works as desired. :) lol Handy is just the start of superlatives! One could describe the change and accuracy of the using this fine product. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ripoff! *2025-02-01, version 1.6.9* Bought Metalbox years ago. Got a new phone and now 75% of the tools are locked saying I need to purchase metalbox again! TOTAL RIPOFF! ### 1/5 — Problem *2024-03-21, version 1.6.9* I upgraded and I’m still being hounded to upgrade. Kind of looks like a ripoff! ### 1/5 — Just doesn’t work *2023-12-19, version 1.6.9* Times out on the bubble level. Asks me to upgrade, go to that screen and it crashes. Very frustrating. Will find another app. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2023-03-08* Not recommended. Not recommender. ### 1/5 — The upgrade killed it!!! *2023-03-03, version 1.6.9* I PAID for this app, did the upgrade now it wants me to pay again!! NOT gonna happen! If you hit the support link above you get PAGE NOT FOUND Oh well, I guess this app gets trashed….. ### 1/5 — Use your stuff *2022-12-12, version 1.6.7* I have had your app’s for some time and used them from time to time, just thought I’d get a few more AND up grade a few of them, you have time and money into them I thought it would be great if I helped you out a little Great job with them ( all work great) Thanks again ### 1/5 — No updates? *2022-07-27* I should have read the comments... Since at least 8 years there are complaints about the nonfunctioning unitconverter.... Still not working. Thanks for taking money for nothing. ### 1/5 — Ruler is way off *2022-02-25, version 1.6.7* I bought the full version of imetalbox quite a while ago and found it pretty handy. But I just discovered that the ruler is way off now. IDK if this is because of a phone or iOS upgrade but bogus. Reinstalled the app etc but nothing fixed the problem. ### 1/5 — Metal Box Frozen on Magnify *2022-01-29, version 1.6.7* Magnify is just a black screen. ### 1/5 — Complete waste of money *2021-02-17, version 1.6.7* The description of the app made me believe you could measure a room. If you can the instructions do not give you a hint how to do. Had to pull out my tape measure. It’s only $2 but enough fools like me and someone’s making some bank on a grade school coding homework project. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great tool! *2026-07-30, version 1.6.9* I use this app all the time. It is very handy to do conversions. ### 5/5 — Compass *2026-06-21, version 1.6.9* My absolute favorite. ### 5/5 — Real Treasure! *2025-07-26, version 1.6.9* I’ve had this app a long time and realized it was great but then I forgot it when I found apps that could do one of the options only. Only when I was desperate to find a good option for fractions did I came back to this. Now I will delete all the uni-taskers and keep this one. Oh, and it’s easy on the eyes. ### 5/5 — Brilliant! *2025-06-02, version 1.6.9* I had to upgrade my iPhone recently and needed a new DIY/carpentry app. This one has everything. The ruler is clever and the magnifying glass using the camera is amazing! Paid £1.50 - worth every penny. Thanks for all the development effort. ### 5/5 — Good app👍 *2025-04-04, version 1.6.9* I kinda wish I found out about this app before purchasing the pro feature on your ruler app but more than worth paying twice for so many features! ### 5/5 — Great *2025-03-03, version 1.6.9* Great collection But can u add a decimal point on calculator. I would use this over apple. ### 5/5 — Excellent App *2024-11-17, version 1.6.9* An multi-functional app that serves many purposes, that I would definitely recommend at any time without hesitation. Thank you so much developer for all the time and effort you put into this app and into also maintaining it on the AppStore. I hope more people support you via positive feedbacks and purchasing of your amazing app to make it worth your time and effort to keep it on the AppStore. Wishing you the very best for the future in every way Developer. Your efforts have been much appreciated & your app very well used by me!! ### 5/5 — Great workshop tool *2024-08-01, version 1.6.9* I have owned my own woodshop for 35 years. This app, I would’ve never imagined when I started my business. Specially, handy when training new people dealing with fractions and metrics. Michael ### 5/5 — Very helpful *2024-02-09, version 1.6.9* This app has many uses around the household and shop. The data is very accurate and easy to read. ### 5/5 — Exceptional Tool *2024-02-01, version 1.6.9* Excellent to use for many activities including from wine making to construction.
