Pros and cons of Metes and Bounds Basic app for iPhone and iPad

Metes and Bounds Basic app good for

Works great, very nice to be able to plot a tract while in the courthouse.

I was a little worried that I wouldnt like this. Its great! I do tons of plotting at the courthouse. No more plotting at home in the evenings.

It is very handy. Works just fine. Only drawback is you cannot enter curves. This action would put this app over the top.

Great app, but greatly needs curve function.....also needs to show call values for auto close.... Also needs an autofill for unknown value in call sequence, ex; ( input "?" )

Purchased this app not long after it first came out. It was missing a few vital features then. Now that the email calls & enter curve info, it is a MUST HAVE for any professional landman or abstractor. Great for being in a pinch. You wont disappointed.

Works great for working in the courthouses of East Texas. I have it on my iPad and iPhone. Comes in handy, but would be great if it could save to PDF.
