Rafter Tools

Rafter Tools is an android app with functions to calculate complex roof framing angles that other roof framing calculators can't and don't offer. Calculating common rafters with a construction calculator is fairly easy, but to be a master carpenter you need more roof framing angle information then the construction calculators offers. With the Rafter Tools android app you'll be able to calculate all of the complex angles for roof framing.
The app's main screen uses a left swipe motion to display all of the different calculators.See my Roof Framing Geometry Blog for A Complete list of the 39+ calculators in Rafter Tools for Android.

I need something that does the math for me...not the other way around.

Surely a very powerful tool but using it is not easy. A better Help system needed. I bought this for determining hip rafter backing angles and can't figure out how to use it. Looking for something simple that I could simply enter Rise and Run, eave or plan angle and get Hip/Valley Backing Angle.

useless if you don't know the math. If I knew the math I would not need the app. Easy Rafters is great though- same author. wish that was an App
