Frequently Asked Questions
What is Simple Resume & CV Builder?
Simple Resume & CV Builder is a resume app that brings 12 resume and CV templates, 8 cover letter templates, an ATS readiness check and job application tracking together in one simple, minimalist app.
How does the ATS resume check work?
The app reads the text extracted from the PDF it generates, much like an applicant tracking system does. It reviews section headings, reading order, contact information and structure, plus content such as action verbs and measurable achievements, then shows an overall score and detailed feedback.
Can I match my resume to a job description?
Yes. Add a job description and the app compares its keywords, skills and target job title with your resume. Missing keywords are listed for review, and you can add skills that reflect your experience. Without a job description, the check focuses on readability, formatting, structure and content.
Can I write a cover letter in the app?
Yes. The app includes 8 cover letter templates, so your resume and cover letter are prepared and kept in the same place.
Can I track my job applications?
Yes. The Library keeps a record of each job you apply for, with a status of Applied, Interviewing, Offer or Not Selected, alongside the resume and cover letter you sent.
Which is the best app to make a resume?
The best resume app is the one that gets a clean, readable document out of your phone quickly. Simple Resume & CV Builder is a free iPhone app with 12 resume templates and 8 cover letter templates, an ATS resume check that scores your PDF, job description matching and an application tracker, all in one place.
Where is my resume data stored?
On your iPhone. Your resumes, cover letters, job descriptions, ATS results and application records are created, checked and stored on your device, and they stay there until you export or share them.
What is the difference between a resume and a CV?
In the US and Canada, a resume is a one-to-two-page summary tailored to each job, and a CV is a longer, complete record of an academic or research career. In the UK, Ireland and most of Europe, CV is simply the everyday name for the same job-application document.
