### 2/5 — Nice app but!!!

*2026-09-01*

Nice app but ask you to sign up for a £40 a month subscription to use… and it hasn’t got the workbench shown on the picture

**Developer response:** Hi andyk032, we apologize for the confusion! Just to clarify - our subscription is $40 per year, not per month, which breaks down to about $3.33 monthly. We offer different subscription options including weekly, monthly, and annual plans, and the annual plan provides the best value. Please contact support@woodsensepro.com if you have any questions. We want to make sure our pricing is clear and transparent!

### 2/5 — It’s okay

*2026-08-31*

So from what I can tell there I not 500+ plans to choose from there’s a limited amount you can do. I assume you’ll be adding more plans with updates and hopefully regular at that.

**Developer response:** Hi Crash2600, thank you for the honest feedback! We're actively working on adding more project types. In the meantime, if you have specific projects in mind or features you'd like to see, please reach out to us at support@woodsensepro.com - we'd love to hear your ideas in detail.

### 3/5 — Plans are different than pictures.

*2026-08-19*

When you get it, it asks for your skill level, range of like 1-5 on how many tools you have, and what kind. That’s cool. And preference for what style plans you like. But once you do it, you can’t change it later. It’s a great feature, really, but that should be an option. For example, I see all the options with the plan layout I “preferred,” but I’d like to see other projects with the photo plans, or video plans. Maybe there’s projects I’d like to do more with those, but I’m stuck with what I chose.

The other thing that’s not great is that for a lot of the plans, the picture of the finished product is different than what the plans have you build. Of course, you can tweak designs and styles yourself, but why would the finished photo not be what you build when you follow the plans for that project?

There’s also not many projects to do in the app. Some are long enough to keep you going for a while, but choices are limited. Maybe it’s because it’s limited to the plan style I wanted, or my skill level, but it’d be great to have more.

That being said, the plans are “close enough” to the end result that you can customize a little to make it look how you want if you pay attention to what you’re doing and don’t mindlessly follow the plans. It’ll definitely get you going and started.

It’s a great, albeit new, app. There’s tons of potential - it just needs tidied up a bit and improved. I think it’ll turn into something great eventually if it sticks around. I’ll update my review if they do.

**Developer response:** Hi Johantahasn, thank you for such thoughtful and detailed feedback - this is incredibly valuable! You've identified some key areas we need to address. We're working on making preferences editable after initial setup so you can switch between photo, video, and written plan styles whenever you want. We're also actively expanding our project collection across all skill levels and plan styles, so you should see more variety soon. If you need any assistance, please contact us at support@woodsensepro.com. We really appreciate your patience as we grow and improve, and your "great potential" assessment means a lot to our team!

### 5/5 — Excited

Looking forward to learning more about

### 5/5 — Wowww

*2026-08-17*

Amazing and really helpful application, I really like it

### 4/5 — Ads are deceptive

*2026-08-16, version 1.6.5*

None of the plans depicted in the ads are in the app.

### 3/5 — Mel

*2026-08-15, version 1.6.5*

Mel

### 2/5 — Great concept poor execution.

*2026-08-15, version 1.6.5*

I’ve used this app for a few months and it’s great for getting a general idea for projects. Most of the plans available are vague. Seems like a good amount of the projects are made up by AI and leave out important structural components. Definitely not 500+ plans available like the developers advertise.

### 2/5 — meh…

*2026-08-15, version 1.6.5*

It has some cool plans for some around the house things. But the two that I saved so that I could get two later have disappeared. Don’t know if this is because they want to force me into buying a paid version.

### 5/5 — Satisfied

*2026-08-13, version 1.6.4*

### 1/5 — Horrible App

*2026-08-20*

### 1/5 — Not as advertised

*2026-08-12, version 1.6.4*

No ability to search. Especially for what is advertised

### 1/5 — Intentionally Deceptive

*2026-08-11, version 1.6.4*

Plans shown in ad are not available in the app. Very few plans available in general. It’s not what is advertised, and a waste even at $1.99

### 1/5 — Charged on the First Day of the Free Trial

*2026-08-11, version 1.6.4*

I signed up expecting to use only the free trial, but I was charged for the subscription immediately!!

### 1/5 — Waste of time.

*2026-08-10, version 1.6.4*

Pass, just find stuff on Pinterest,

### 1/5 — Can’t change out of metric

*2026-08-05, version 1.6.3*

Same as above

### 1/5 — Review before use?

*2026-08-02, version 1.6.3*

Asking user to submit a 5 star review before revealing a paywall is silly and should be against TOS. You can’t review a product you haven’t had the opportunity to use.

### 1/5 — pas de recherche possible

*2026-07-31*

ne permet. pas la recherche d’un projet

**Developer response:** Bonjour RolandXIX, merci pour votre retour ! Nous avons bien pris en compte votre suggestion concernant l'ajout d'une fonction de recherche et nous l'envisageons sérieusement pour de futures mises à jour. Si vous avez besoin d'aide, n'hésitez pas à nous contacter directement à l'adresse support@woodsensepro.com en précisant votre demande ; nous nous ferons un plaisir de vous orienter vers les ressources adéquates ou de vous transmettre les plans pertinents. Nous vous remercions de votre patience alors que nous continuons à améliorer l'expérience de navigation.

### 1/5 — Likely Scam

*2026-07-27*

I just downloaded this. I was welcomed by a commercial, then asked an insane number of questions before being presented with a subscription screen. I haven’t even had a chance to use it yet but I’m almost certainly going to delete it.
Update: Received a developer response apologizing for “the confusion about our pricing structure.” I think they (or an AI) read the word ‘subscription’ and nothing else. I’ve updated the title of my review from “Scam?” to “Likely Scam.”
