Pros and cons of Material Estimator Calculator app for iPhone and iPad

Material Estimator Calculator app good for

I have the project calc from this company. this works just as well and now i have one more cool app for my iphone...
hey guys you have a great product. however lets get up to date and enhance the icon and app graphics. thanks!!
I had a calc. that I used for years that did all of these formulas. Now I have it on my phone. Its easy and very useful.
I was so upset when I lost my first one and could not find one in the stores where I live. If you do handyman work own a house rent whatever project you need help with this calculator does it for you. You cant afford to not have it in the tool box. The best part for me is I wont lose it because I always have my phone with me.
I got this app to replace my Material Estimator Calculator, I keep breaking. I use this calculator every day, ordering stone, concrete, even paint. It also converts mm to inches. It makes all these ordering situations easy, plus its about a third the price of the actual calculator and since its on your phone its always with you! I highly recommend this app!
I really find useful I wish you made it for surface pro surfers book
