Description
I am a woodworker and use the concept of Golden Ratios in my wood projects all the time. For years I used a free app that functions very similarly to this one—input the known dimension, with the short or long length, and the app would provide the correct ratio. It went away, so I created this one.
Instructions
This app is straightforward. Select which ratio you would like: Golden, Silver, or Bronze (there are others, these ratios are the most used). Provide the known dimension, either the short side or long side, and press calculate, and the app will provide the other proportion of the ratio you have selected.
If you prefer dimensions in metric, tap the switch, your selection is saved until you tap the switch again.
You can view the calculation results in inches (well, feet too), centimeters, or millimeters dynamically; just select how you would like to view the results.
Please keep in mind that I chose to round off the result as this app is designed to provide a value to meet the eye rather than an engineering exactitude.
The Golden Ratio does a simple task, and you do not need access to the Internet to use it!
Happy Woodworking!
Blessings,

What’s New
Version 2.2
Changed the results image to a standard Golden Ratio image to avoid confusion about the results.
The app will only allow either a short or long known length.
Update to comply with Apple's Privacy requirements.
Ratings and Reviews
Inputting measurement units
This is a great little tool which would be even better if the units could be selected before calculation, as it is, it defaults to imperial measurements and is a tad frustrating for metric users.
Developer Response ,
Updated today to select metric.
Great but...
Can you please make a settings to set default units? As the other reviewer said it’s a bit frustrating for metric users. Basically- to use it as it is I need to use external app first to convert m cm or mm to inches first! Thanks in advance
Developer Response ,
Thanks for the review and suggestion. I see the issue it is not the result that is the problem but the initial input. I will look at creating a setting for metic input.
Done. Apple approved the update this morning. Switch the metric and the app will remember your choice.
