KerfMaker Woodworking Planner

Just bought it. Has nice features like adding new materials types and prices to calculate costs. Can’t tell if the measurements in the app use nominal or actual sizes and whether I need to adjust for that.

First, this app does exactly what it says - it helps you plan out your next build. That said, I do have a few complaints. Or, rather, suggestions for improvement. First, it’s not iPad optimized; I have a phone sized display in the center screen that’s difficult to use. Second, the sizing is done by a scrolling wheel for inches and fractions; putting in a piece that’s 84” long means scrolling all the way to 84. A simple keypad would alleviate this. Third, there’s no option for plywood as a building material, only a generic “wood” option. In light of these shortcomings, I can only give it 3 stars for the moment. If these were addressed, I wouldn’t hesitate to give 5 stars.

Does exactly what it says. I use it all the time, for remembering dimensions of all sorts of sites and workpieces around the house. I wish it had an option to sync by iCloud instead of Dropbox. I wish it were quieter about syncing unless it's taking a while. I'm still giving it five stars. AR measurements would take it to a whole other level.
