DVC Planner

If I could give zero stars, I would. This app keeps crashing every time I add or delete information, such as contracts or vacations. Bought the app for $1.99 plus tax, just to experiment with, and there are bugs galore! Anyone wishing to buy this app….caveat emptor!

As the subject line indicates, this is a follow up review from September 2015. I emailed the developer with the issues I was having this app, and within a day or two he responded. He seemed to genuinely want to help to improve my experience with the app as evident with almost a half dozen back-and-forth emails. Initially, although he tried several angles and ideas, he was unable to solve the issue the app was having with my iPhone. I had written it off as a failed attempt when I received a follow up email about a week later. The developer had continued to toy with different solutions until he happened upon a resolution that was effective. An update was made shortly thereafter and the app has worked as intended since. The fact that a solution was found is not what impressed me. It was his willingness to establish correspondence with me as an individual to try and resolve this conflict. I hope that more app developers demonstrate this quality. I am an iPhone user and always maintain the latest iOS updates.

This app is very helpful in having the point charts right at your fingertips. I think it could have been better with more picture or a more appealing interface, but all in all it is a great application for just .99 cents. It works much easier than the DVC website point calculator.
