I like that they have joinery tools. However, the UI needs some serious improvement to function properly on mobile. The rotations are clanky and parts of the pop ups (like the angle box in the cut tool) disappear outside the screen depending on how you rotate. It's also very tedious to place accurately.

very annoying and disappointing app. Just wasted my time and my data. showing finished projects instead of creating a platform with tools for others to create the designs they want. if I wanted finished projects, won't I just go to Google and download it? very annoying app when someone chooses a box style, there is no provision to divide or add unit(s). plywood thickness is limited to 18mm, no adjustment possible. the creator of this app has to upgrade the app

Thanks for the update. The “box” structures are designed as quick starter templates, great if you just want to get going fast. For full control, use Add material > Lumber > Sheet, where you can set a variety of plywood thickness and adjust every dimension. We’re also working on adding more preset thicknesses for convenience.

I can't even make my own project. it just loads and loads and loads then takes me back to the home screen. I do it again and again and again Update : they reached out and made 2 email replies saying they will get back to me and never did. I tried the app the other day said it was down for updates. I tried again today still does not work. Tried on my daughters tablet, which also does not work.

Hi Dave, we’re so sorry this issue is still happening. Our dev team is digging into a possible account-specific bug and we’ve asked you to try an alternate login so we can confirm the cause. We know it’s been frustrating and truly appreciate your patience while we get this resolved.
