Very Useful App, but...
Maybe I’m missing it, but I don’t see a back button. Navigation could be better, but content is extensive and rich.

Handyman
Great product❗️ Tons of reliable info in 1 (1️⃣) Place 👏. Great Pix of wood (Very Necessary for Wood ID). If only 1 critisim it would be, no easy way when looking at wood sample to get back to list, & ability to 'order' wood differently, Otherwise Great ‼️ This App by far is one of the Best on wood identification & usage currently available on iOS devices, AND especially on Retna available devices like iPhones 11 & 12, as well as the Pad Mini❗️👏 Best Pix 🙏

Miss-named App
I’m greatly disappointed. I wanted a tool that could help me ID a piece of wood in hand. If this app isn’t worthless from a practical use standpoint, then it deserves the low rating simply on poor instruction and functionality. For example, I performed a search and got 75 hits, but the app only lets me see 50 of them. Way too many, but still, why can’t I see them all? And why can’t I narrow my search further? If you are looking for a simple wood ID tool, this isn’t it.
