Pretty big list of stain solutions, well organized and easy to navigate through (I'd love to see a menu tile that lets me go directly to a stain by letter, as opposed to scrolling through the entire list). The "updating data" on app took about a minute only on the first use of the app, so obviously was checking for update(s); after that, it opens immediately. I do not use the "log in" feature as it seems to be optional and not required to use the stain guide. I believe you are supposed to login if you want to use the users forum. "Find a dry cleaner" option works like a charm. I played with the rest of the options, and found them to work very well, and be quite informative. I've installed and ran this app on Samsung SGH-I747M and Acer Nexus 7 Eee, and the app works well, no crashing, or running out of memory. Also, I am yet to see any ads, or spam (so far, none!). So, that's my first impression of it - it is good and, if it stays good, and free, I'll be using it often.
