Ratings and reviews

Does just what I need for my consulting work. Interface was not as intuitive as I would like but not bad. I was able to figure out out pretty quickly. An ad popped up screaming at me as soon as I saved my first photo, which I hated! But the pro version was only $7 so I got it right away.

This app has potential but needs some improvements and additions: 1.) The drop down to view photos doesn't display all top level folders, only a partial list. This is prevalent when a folder containing photos has nested folders containing additional photos 2.) Give option to specify a parent directory to search for photos. 3.) Give the option to set the default save-to directory. 4.) Add a save button. The default behavior of having to go back before asking to save is unintuitive.

Thought it would be good for adding measurements to a photo for sizing a job, but you can't zoom into an image enough. Moving an image around is difficult too. Picking up the end point of an existing line or angle is hit and miss and often it just thinks you want to draw a new line which is really annoying. This could be a useful app, the basics are there, but it's implementation is lacking for any detail work, which is odd considering it's supposed to be a 'technical tool kit'.
