Pros and cons of Resistor Codes app for iPhone and iPad

Resistor Codes app good for

Perfect! Its simple, lightweight, has all you need in a simple, easy-to-use interface, and its free! Get the upgrade if you need the 6-band Resistor Codes, definitely worth it.
I would like to see be able to put the value of ohms in and then in return I would get the colors needed for the resistor.
Works fine but the about button doesnt work and the about should display information for how the color code works

Some bad moments

The color dials and calculations on the resistor graphic works great - and looks awesome. But if you click on either of the navigation buttons (About or Launch), the app freezes and stops working. This requires closing the app and re-opening each time. Bug. :/ I guess its because it hasnt been updated in 6 years. Hmmm. Wouldnt buy the Pro version then.
