  • Surprisingly Accurate...

    Surprisingly accurate. When I go smoothly CW, measuring out 180 degrees in about 4 seconds, I often get within 1 degree. When I go CCW, however, it seems to be no better than 2 degrees, and often 3 or 4 degrees off. This is still around 2% accuracy, which is very good. I get this kind of error routinely, even if I let the gyro stabilize to minimize drift. It thus might be necessary to have two calibration values: one for CW and one for CCW turns.

    I am also having troubles seeing that the calibration I'm setting is doing anything. While I really like the concept of how you calibrate it, it is a unclear when exactly it is using the calibration for its output. Since calibrating depends on measuring the angle with calibration off, it should be very straight-foward to have calibration on or off in the settings, and even to have a color indication in the goniometer view itself so that we know calibration is or isn't taken into account.

    Other than that, I only have one small feature request: present a drop-down menu of angle formatting choices, since there are so many to toggle through.

  • Good First Use of Gyro

    Has a lot of potential. Calibration is either not working or the documentation is unclear. Looking forward to the update.
  • Download, Smile, Delete.

    Nice to check the iPhone4 gyro. Once happy for 2 minutes, delete. Ruler does not work and cannot measure anything. The rest is fun.
  • Great!

    Very good use of the gyroscope as a level. Looks great and responds well. Unfortunately it has to be calibrated after every use, as it seems the gyroscope has a tendency to lose track after moving it around. I think it might be an issue with the hardware itself since I see it in other gyro apps, such as gun range. Does anyone else have this problem? (calibrate to a surface, then tilt it left and right a few times and put it back)
