"An all-in-one app with a wide array of tools. Not all tools will be useful to all users, but a good collection with a little bit of everything. I purchased this app a few months ago and it was call ""T-Premium"" at the time. It looks like the developer changed the name. I didn't see any explanation for this on their site. Support site structure is not laid out well. With all the features the interface is a little confusing. I tried the ruler function based on the instructions on the web site. I think I'll just carry a small tape measure with me if I need to measure anything. It appears the latest update did add some new configuration options. "
