Will give my unfiltered review in a day or too. From the pics it seems to be a well thought out app. <img border="0" alt="[patriot]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" /> <br /><br />Edit. ( Here's my review on the app. I'll try and make this short LOL ) <br /><br />Pro's -<br />1. Well laid out. Very east to navigate. A child could figure out how to use it in 2 mins. <br /><br />2.I like the option of only seeing listings with pics.<br /><br />3. I like being able to click on the provided link if interested on directions & the yards contact information. <br /><br /><br />Here's the Cons ( Or should I say nice examples of future updates.) <br /><br />1. Not being able to zoom in on the pic. This can only be done after you have selected that vehicle for closer inspection. ( <br />Not a deal breaker but would save some time while searching.) <br /><br />2. A filter for model specific cars. ( Being able to look for only Cobras, GT's & Verts.... on their specific to model parts would lower the amount of cars to sift thru during your search.... Basically not having to look at 4 bangers & V6 cars would save guys time looking and more time wrenching.)<br /><br />3. Only one pic of vehicle. ( I know this is asking a lot, but an extra pic of the interior could help someone out if they were looking to swap their interior colors. ) not everyone can appreciate the Porno Red like EPIK. <br /><br />4. Screen doesn't allow to be viewed while tilted. ( 90% of the time I view and type this way..... It is a tiny screen compared to the galaxy note2 - Mini Flat Screen Phone. ) <br /><br />5. Not being able to select the year after scrolling down by touch. You have to hit the close button. ( Im sure I'm not the only person tapped the screen multiple times trying to select the year LOL.) <br /><br />Well that's about it. I hope this information helps you out and good luck with the app. I'm going to keep it on my phone so I having another app to make my day even more unproductive. <br /><br /> <img border="0" alt="[patriot]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" /><br /> <br /> <small>[ 2013-06-11, 03:16 PM: Message edited by: SLOWBACK 67 ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>bigstangs</b> <br /><small>Member # 7920</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2013,5,11,15,14,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Good app found an 1968 cougar I'm going to look at <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>67stang</b> <br /><small>Member # 549</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2013,5,14,8,27,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Slowback -<br />Thanks for the well thought out review. <br />You nailed exactly the tweaks we'll likely make for the next version, except for possibly the 4cyl/8cyl and sub-model filter.
