### 5/5 — My go to

*2023-06-20*

This is a great app with great explanations for writing VBA in Excel.

### 4/5 — Útil

*2023-04-30, version 5.0*

Es muy útil pero muy muy básico, ojalá agregaran mas contenido no importa si hubiera que pagar.

### 1/5 — Need updating...

*2022-08-15, version 5.0*

Very few functions and samples were listed... Hope the developer will update this application.

### 1/5 — Not Worth It

*2022-06-05*

Very basic and not presented in a way that I think would help beginners. Buy a review book instead.

### 4/5 — Gut für Anfänger

*2020-11-25*

Es wäre schön wenn die APP noch erweitert werden würde, für fortgeschrittene User.

### 5/5 — Muy buen repositorio

*2020-10-28, version 5.0*

Tiene grandes referencias de mucha utilidad. 😊

### 4/5 — More Content

*2020-10-04*

So useful. Why not to be updated more frequently with more content?

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2020-08-15*

This app is not very good. First of all, the text is in a grey color which is difficult to read. Secondly, the text doesn't rotate with the phone and you can't enlarge the text ascfar as I can see. The explanations are minimal and incomplete. You can get a ton more information on any website.

### 2/5 — Not for Mac users

*2020-06-27*

Unfortunately this guide does not cover VBA codes for Excel in MacBook.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2020-03-22, version 5.0*

I’ve been using this app for years now. Highly recommended for anyone using Excel! Wow! Just saw my review from 5 yrs ago! Username B1akh01e.
