Normally i do not to leave feedback or comments. I usually rate it by 1-5 stars, however considering how helpful this app has been to me im going to donate. " Best sd card imager on the market, does exactly as it describes if not better, quick responsive UI , and customer service is top notch." Thank you keep up the good work. If PI SD Card imager didnt exist i would never have gotten into learning code or been able to afford a computer. Im now looking to work in IT:) -tanner vine

I love this app! The only thing I found that was a bit annoying was when I would try to install a custom OS, it won't write to the SD card. (The SD card is inserted into my phone not plugged into the bottom) But when using the built-in OSs it work wonderful! If you could get the custom OS working, I would rate 5 stars!

One of the best softwares ever. Can write custom iso, download almost any system compatible with rpi zero / 2 / 3 / 4, have a cool option who allows to choose only compatible systems for your model of rpi, can enable ssh directly, can install systems headless (without any mouse or keyboard, it install itself once the image written on the sd card, the sd card in the rpi and the rpi powered!!!). Clear, easy to use, fast and reliable! THANKS! 10/5 stars!!!!!!
