Leastimator 4+

Great app. Very useful. Beautifully designed.

When I downloaded the app I couldn’t use it because my lease period was / is longer than 36 months. I talked to Hao and he fixed it. Just downloaded the update and it works perfectly.

Maybe a Jeep image for the icon or the ability to use you’re own pic for future updates?

Thank you streboRekiM for the amazing suggestion. I am working on it and this new feature will be added soon.

Long term snapshot

The app give a ton of information if you are looking for what the end of your lease will look like. It would be a perfect app if they added the info in “real “ time meaning instead of it giving you at the end of your lease info it would give you how many miles you are over or under as of the date you update your miles. Like If I enter miles of 100 in the app it tell me my results as of today. You are over by 50 miles as of today. I like to know where I am in my lease while this tells me in three years what it will be assuming I drive the same miles (which my diving changes often) I have no idea as of today how manny miles I am over/under.

Data wiped without notice!

So, props to the developer for updating their app and keeping it fresh; HOWEVER, in the latest automatic update (99.9% of iPhone users have their apps update automatically), my four years of lease mileage data are gone. Checking the App Store reveals that the developer stated to export the data prior to upgrading. Unfortunately, this was never an option. Users just don’t check the App Store anymore prior to upgrading their apps.

I would completely understand that perhaps the developer didn’t realize this, except that ethical app management dictates that you warn your users that a major upgrade is coming and data may be lost. Lease mileage isn’t a big deal - I’ll get over it. But to the app developer: unfortunately, you messed up. Your long-time users would appreciate a “mea culpa” here.

Hello itsthekuz,

Thank you for the review. Apologize for the thoughtless upgrade and announcement -- should have done better. v3.1 should have fixed this issue and brought back all the legacy data. Please let me know if there are any unexpected issues.

Best,
Developer of Leastimator
