Open Source iALL Earthship designs. The most brilliant, creative and forward thinkers of the 21st century are encouraging open source; not just for software, but for everything. The Internet Age has shown everyone that the traditional patent system slows, limits and even halts development. More and more brilliant people (like Linux, Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg) are "Copy-Lefting" their ideas. It is doubtful patents will become obsolete, but patented technologies will certainly fall far behind their open source counter-parts and it will be difficult for them to compete. Tesla Motors - Our Patents Belong to you. "Technology leadership is not defined by patents, which history has repeatedly shown to be small protection indeed against a determined competitor, but rather by the ability of a company to attract and motivate the world’s most talented engineers. We believe in applying the open source philosophy." How Will Zuckerberg Rule the World? By Giving Tech Away "The real goal is to build the community. A lot of times, the best way to advance the technology is to work on it asa community."

I grateful, just addressing the obvious. The plans have many gaps leaving question marks, leaving me to just assume most things. It's like most of the content in the app was just copied and pasted from open source material, which I had already achieved with a lot more information. So there seems there's not too much attention applied to the details, hence the question on what makes this worth $10, I would of supplied extra information that couldn't have been sourced for free!

I'm excited about the app and downloading plans. However, I can't do this from my phone. How do I do this from my PC? Please help as I look forward to adjusting my rating upon being enlightened.
Could use more descriptions for dummies like me ready to break ground

It's new and still needs work but it's very handy.
Great app in my opinion, you can never have too much information of course but this is a great start and well worth the $9.99. I have just become interested in the earthship concept and was initially bummed when I saw that the plans cost so much...then I realized this app had been released. The idea of the app and making the info more open source is awesome guys. I'm sure you will ultimately reach more people this way and raise more funds just due to the sheer number who will be helped tremendously by this app. Please keep adding more information and perhaps other designs and sustainable concepts. Cheers from Australia :)
Radically Sustainable I'm rooting for the Earthship Academy, now in its 5th full year. The disaster relief models that the team and students have built around the world are homes that will withstand emergencies and provide comfort year round. If you want to free yourself from utilities, insure yourself against a changing climate, and contribute to the very deserving efforts of the people who've put this earthship app and the whole idea together, i think $10 is a deal. Photo resolution is perfect if you follow instructions.
Amazing Is it just got upgraded, users have access to detailed photo albums of materials, drawings, and much more. Still a little weak on a rationale , and how everything works. Definitely worth paying the money. Massive upgrade on knowledge from Earthship books!
Great idea Still in the baby stages of development. If they fix the problem of not being able to zoom in on your phone, then it will be worth the money. Still waiting on the patch that fixes the "not connected to internet" problem. Maybe the auto update needs fixing too? Lots of great pictures, but still unable to zoom in on the plans.

Hello there,
The internet issue is now fixed and all the plans are downloadable and you are able to zoom in on them if you go to the "downloadable" section of all of them.
We certainly still are in the baby stages of development but we are constantly working on making it the best, most user-friendly, easy to use APP,
Thank you, Earthship App Is Quite Useless This simple app promised much but delivers worse than nothing. I just bought it and downloaded to my Android smartphone. It is kind of like a book, but with lots of postage-stamp sized photos and miniscule building plans that are much too tiny to examine for detail. And they can't be enlarged on my screen and there is no option to print them out. I own three Earthship design books and have yearned to build and live in my own Earthship for close to 20 years now. What a massive let-down. I'm sorry, Michael.
Great information Everything downloadable! As an app, not so great, but all the info is there and you can download it too.
Has a ton of information I like the app. It has all the information needed to build one. The only issue is the pictures are small but are pretty good definition. I would take screenshots and then zoom on the resulting images. I thank them for making an app with the data needed.
help looked great when I used it first time but now it tells me I have lots Internet connection but I haven't! How do you contact someone regarding this?

This issue is related to a specific version of Android System WebView, we just released a bug fix for it and the APP will be working smoothly in 24 hours,
We are sorry for the inconvenience,
Thank you, Error I can't access anything because of a pop-up message saying I lost connection to the Internet.

Thank you, Not great at first, but as content got added, it now contains every plan you will ever need to build a survival model earthship, or inspire you to draw and build your own
The idea is great! With the update photos are perfect! Thank You a lot, I am planning to build one!
The only holistic building system that should be used around the world!
Great app Great app for building an earthship but needs the global earthship designs.

Tell us what you want and we will try our best to make it happen!
You can email me at lara@earthship.com and we can communicate further! Not worth the money ... YET Bought this app for my phone and i am an avid follower of these folk. Watched all the youtube videos, bought several books and was excited to get the app. Cant enlarge any images to read any detail. Many sections very poor content. I just redeemed my fee after less than a few minutes of scrolling through what it had to offer. I like Mike Reynolds and all his good stuff. Sorry Mike. This looks poorly compiled . I feel it should be relaunched again once it has plenty content ?
Earth ship App I eagerly awaited this apps release but I have to agree with everyone else. It is not useful in its current form. I hope it will be updated. If not I guess the 9.99 is a donation.
Love Earthips, Hate App I am very glad that Google Play let me get refunded for this purchase. The app does not let you zoom in on any of the images, which makes it sorta useless.
