Machining Advisor Pro

New user on a phone. I type an email and password, and a ton of other details, only to have it tell me I’ve already registered the email address. I had to go to the web to finish registering. The interface CONSTANTLY hides the submit button while the keyboard is open. Neither policy opens a browser to read them, so I “agreed” to something I was never allowed to read. Very clunky. I know this makes me a newbie, but I couldn’t even find Al 6061, an alloy of four metals that were never available in a combination of more than three, let alone by the stock number of any metal supplier I use. Fine, it’s a gimmick to get high end pro’s to buy Harvey Tools. Hobbyists need not apply. Don’t burn your email address on this.

App kind of blows, but the website is fine.

First thing you want is my email address to login? I think not. I’m deleting this app right after this post.

Never allowed to sign in. 500 error every time

From the start, the privacy terms link was broken. But I proceeded anyway to include tons of personal information. After a few confusing errors trying to authenticate the app, I reopened it. It looks like a oddly specific tool set because none of my tools are listed. I have a ton of different bits I use regularly. None are listed. I operate a CNC router table. Either this info is strictly for those in the know or they are using proprietary tooling and are trying to push their products and not tell end users that. It is disingenuous not to put this critical detail in the app description. I’m deleting the app and I emailed the support link to have my data removed from their servers. I’m not sure how that will go.

Can’t get past sign up terrible app.

I need a speeds and feeds calculator not for you to contact my employer and solicit no thanks after 45mins better download the gorilla app u download it and instantly opens to a.......... speeds and feeds calculator didn’t have to put name company title VALAD phone number I’m surprised no social but u prob got that

Paid $250 for a tool that would have destroyed 321 stainless steel according to them. On the app it told me I should run it 215ipm which I thought was crazy for that material called in they said that a little face run it at 201ipm I still doubted it called their local application engineer he said ran it at 176ipm . I stared running it at 129ipm and the tool broke not even 1 min into cut . Called in they didn’t know what to say the application engineer came over to analyze it and he goes “seemed like our data was wrong, it should be closer to 100ipm” . They didn’t even replace the end mill $250 gone not even 1 minute of cut . I got a $100 kennametal tool and it ran for 2 days and a half at 100ipm . Long story short they really need to update their data so people can actually use it and they should at least stand behind their word and fix it not leave you hanging. Don’t overpromise and underdeliver .

Great feeds and speeds every time. Helps in using helical tools to the fullest. I do wish there was a quick list so I could keep a list of speeds and feed for tools I use daily or that I’ve used before so I could then select different materials.

No, no no. I should not have to submit my email and personal info to use an app like this. I didnt even try it.
