Wheeler Spoke Calculator for Android
Best spoke calculator ever. I don't have to burn a lot of brain cells calculating. Awesome job!!!
I used it already knowing what spoke length I needed just to check it's accuracy. It gave me a spoke length that was way too long. Even the disclaimer states that the program can't be counted on for completeness nor accuracy....why would I want to use it then, those are two very important details when calculating spoke lengths.
Simple interface, excellent help screen, no adds!
Excellent programme, works really well

Overall, this is the best spoke calculator app I've been able to find so far. The calculations are accurate as long as you enter the correct data, which is easier said then done. The one problem that needs to be fixed is simply the wording for one of the measurement fields: center to flange distance. The most common method of measuring is from the center of the hub to the center of the flange, but what the app actually requires you to enter here is the distance from the locknut to the center of the flange.

No hub or rim data is provided. It asks for 'offset' as well as left and right 'flange distance' which are different ways of getting the same measurements. However entering equivalent values generates different results. Lastly it uses the outdated 'OLD' or over locknut dimension. Help function doesn't define all the inputs.
