Crown Molding 2.2.0.0
In case you find yourself in such a situation and have only your Windows Phone handset with you, Crown Molding is the app that will help you figure out the exact angles needed when cutting crown molding to have it fit perfectly between the ceiling and the walls.
Plain front-end, designed for optimal functionality
The utility offers a very simple interface, with all the functions in plain sight so they are very easy to access and use. The excellent visibility of the parameters and their values doesn't compensate though for the complete lack of visually attractive elements of design.
The display is very responsive and you will have the results shown with no delay. Also, the calculated values appear colored in blue, so they will stand out better on the black background. Just as visible, but of no practical use, quite the opposite are the advertisement banners flashing in the lower part of the screen.
Effortless operation and accurate results
Crown Molding functions in a very straightforward manner, as it only needs you to provide the wall angle and choose the spring angle or input a custom value and the solution is shown in real-time.
The two most often used values for the spring angle, 38 respectively 45 degrees can be selected with one tap, but if you made the crown molding yourself and it has a different angle, you can specify it there.
There are very few things to consider when using this app, manly related to the minimal and maximal values of the wall and spring angles, as you will see inside the main screen of the app, where the necessary explanations are provided.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
The application doesn't provide an enticing GUI, yet the practical layout and the quick response when displaying the results save it some points, especially considering the intrusive adverts. |
Function8
This tool is all about getting fast and accurate results, which it does, but it doesn't have any means of storing the values so as to help in future calculations. |
Security7
The utility is a bit too curious when it comes to sensitive data stored onto the phone as it needs to look into the phone dialer as well as to access the owner and phone identities. |
Battery9
Crown Molding needs a fairly small amount of energy to get it going, so the battery usage remains very low all through its runtime. |
Price9
Despite the pesky advertisement banners that appear inside the main screen, this tool is a very good helper for anyone who needs to quickly compute the crown molding cutting angles for fitting it. |
Compatibility9
Well prepared for almost all the Windows Phone devices out there, the application will only need version 7.5 or higher of the OS installed onto the target handset. |
