Strong complaintHover: Measure Design Estimate — App is broken Please fix this app. It doesn’t work for me anymore. Can’t use the 3D modeling program to make designe for homeowners, and I can’t take new measurements.
Strong complaintHover: Measure Design Estimate — Frustrating App seemed great with lots of ways to check out and redesign your house. Frustrating part is after doing all that work and trying to save it, the app freezes and does not save.
Frustrated…from a measurement tool aspect I’ve been using this app since 2019. This update is over designed and clunky. Particularly the 3D measure tool is miserable to navigate and use now. I use this daily for work and I honestly can’t stand it anymore. Bring back the previous 3D measure tool!
…hange at all, the app crashes and you have to restart all over again. The dev team needs to trash this whole app and start from scratch. The most unreliable app I’ve ever used
