Lighting Handbook Reviews

Sehr praktisch aber....

Orakel3000 on

Ich nutze die App jetzt bestimmt über drei Jahre hauptsächlich wegen der Library. Du siehst auf einem Blick die wichtigsten Daten. Alles in allem sehr gut und ich möchte sie auf Produktion nicht mehr missen. Jetzt habe ich die Premium Library freigeschaltet und das fixture Angebot ist um Welten besser, auch wenn sie Online abgerufen wird und teilweise ewig dauert😕. Was bei dem Preis sehr sch...ade ist. Zudem stürzt seit dem, die App jedes Mal ab wenn ich aus einem Manual wieder zurück möchte. Ist für mich fast ein Grund die App nicht mehr so gerne zu nutzen und vor allem die Premium-Library nicht noch mal zu buchen. Optisch ist sie auch nicht mehr Zeitgemäß, also besteht starker Handlungsbedarf seitens des Entwicklers. Deswegen nur drei ⭐️ Wäre schade wenn da nichts mehr passiert und die App zu einer App-Store Leiche wird.
