Pros and cons of Handy Man DIY app for iPhone and iPad

Handy Man DIY app good for

I have found it to be very helpful with all my home renovations.

This app is very handy when youre someone like myself, who does little jobs for people, and would like to keep the jobs all organized. If there was a feature that would allow you to add photos to projects, that would be very useful.

Works great for me. But Id like to see an iPad version and Id be totally happy. Still 5 stars for me.

Very helpful with a renovation we are planning. Highly recommend this app for the DIY GUY

Obviously its not an everything for everyone app but i find it great for planning. It would be nice if it accommodated none rectangular rooms as well.

Some bad moments

The help tips are very limited and dont cover everything I hoped for. That was extremely disappointing. The app needs to include drawing tools or include photos you can add to help design and plan each room. This is definitely not everything I need.

Clearly written by beginner programs. Can do all of these calculations in my head and enter the results in notes. Dont waste your time

This should not be a paid app, not enough content. Dont waste your time, just google your project.

We are remodeling our entire house to sell and this app is extremely handy to keep all of the information I need about each room

The app is very flexible and easy to use. One suggestion for a future release; support the ability to reorder the tasks to allow for changes in the project.

Im a contractor. I just purchased this app. After playing with it a few minutes i feel its a pretty good app. Great for DIYers. It has a lot of useful options. But, it has one big flaw! No sub categories! Add this and I will actually use it and give you 5 stars. Great potential. Thanks.
