Charged when I thought I was getting a free trial.
I never meant to buy this. I only wanted the free trial, but they charged my card anyway. I tried to get a refund through their site, but it claims I have no eligible purchases—which is obviously wrong. There’s no phone number, no email, nothing to contact them.

Very good
The app is overall very good, it is easy to understand and provides step by step instructions for the design of your choice, it also gives you the option of taking the designs pdf and printing it. I would change a few things though: 1. (I know this might be a bit expensive, but…) instead of having the ai generated images I would like it if there were real images, even if the lighting or scene isn’t perfect, I would still like to see how the item looks in real life 2. I would also rather have the measurements for the wood be in more standard measurements like centimeters or inches and have some fractions after, I don’t know many people who have things that can measure in millimeters, so it is harder for me to build it. 3. I wish there were more builds and different themes because right now it is feeling like bookshelves, cutting boards, and tables. But otherwise this is a really solid app, I love how it shows you what tools you will need in advanced and the type of wood you will need. Also the ai that can help you during the build if you have questions is a pretty great idea. 9/10

Plans are different than pictures.
When you get it, it asks for your skill level, range of like 1-5 on how many tools you have, and what kind. That’s cool. And preference for what style plans you like. But once you do it, you can’t change it later. It’s a great feature, really, but that should be an option. For example, I see all the options with the plan layout I “preferred,” but I’d like to see other projects with the photo plans, or video plans. Maybe there’s projects I’d like to do more with those, but I’m stuck with what I chose. The other thing that’s not great is that for a lot of the plans, the picture of the finished product is different than what the plans have you build. Of course, you can tweak designs and styles yourself, but why would the finished photo not be what you build when you follow the plans for that project? There’s also not many projects to do in the app. Some are long enough to keep you going for a while, but choices are limited. Maybe it’s because it’s limited to the plan style I wanted, or my skill level, but it’d be great to have more. That being said, the plans are “close enough” to the end result that you can customize a little to make it look how you want if you pay attention to what you’re doing and don’t mindlessly follow the plans. It’ll definitely get you going and started. It’s a great, albeit new, app. There’s tons of potential - it just needs tidied up a bit and improved. I think it’ll turn into something great eventually if it sticks around. I’ll update my review if they do.
