Installation is through the Google Play store and it doesn't ask for any permissions to work.
There is only one menu option, which is to switch between four and five band modes. There is no on screen button for this, instead you will need to press the hardware menu button on your device to reveal the option.
It is fast to use and works in landscape mode so there is plenty of colour on screen.
There is no reverse mode or reference to E product numbers but if you just want to find out what a particular resistor is, this is easy and fast to use.
