Planting Grass 2014.709.622.3083
Getting instructed in gardening is easier when done with the help of some specialized tools and if you need to learn quickly how to grow a beautiful lawn, Planting Grass for Windows Phone is an app you should check out.
Uncomplicated and plain interface
The utility offers a fairly clean GUI that is unadorned and is designed to offer ease of use through a practical layout. The white background with some discreet graphics here and there facilitates the data entry and legibility when dealing with the calculation components.
Switching the sections of the app and going through the contained articles is done fluently, without any delays or glitches of any sort. There is a noticeable hindrance inside the main screen and it is represented by some adverts that keep on changing, placed right under the menu categories.
Easily calculate the quantities of materials for covering an area with grass
Planting Grass has several sections, most of them leaning towards practicality and numbers and one specialized in providing theoretical knowledge regarding the methods of growing a lawn.
Thus, if you intend to use grass plugs, mats or seeds you will be able to compute costs using the dedicated calculators. The measurement units for area are square feet, square meters and acres, while the seed quantities are expressed in pounds.
Detailed instructions on how to proceed with the grass planting
The application describes in a few easy to follow steps the procedures you have to follow in order to successfully set in place the grass plugs or seeds and obtain a beautiful lawn.
The necessary operations are described in detail inside each of the three sections of the "Guide" module, so you can pick the one you are interested in and start learning immediately.

Bottom Line
Design / UI8
The looks of this app are quite clan and with a simple design, while the layout offers a simple way of getting information or accessing the calculation area. The ad banners are the main nuisance from the visual perspective. |
Function8
Planting Grass offers some really useful tools and instructions, but it needs more consistency in keeping the same system of measurement units as it now mingles Metric and Imperial units inside the same calculator. |
Security10
This tool poses no problems from the security point of view as it doesn't need to access any area of the system or any places where data is stored onto the phone. |
Battery8
The amount of power needed by this app to functions well is quite reduced, which means the battery usage remains well within moderate levels. |
Price9
There is a lot of useful info provided by this tool free of costs and since the only major downside seems to be the presence of the adverts, it has a very good value overall. |
Compatibility7
Only those who own a Windows Phone 8.1 device can have this utility installed and running onto their handsets. |
