### 3/5 — good but …

*2021-05-24*

without landscape mode the app is not good to use! As an example sending mails, the screen keypad is displayed only half and edit is therefore not possible

### 1/5 — Don’t Purchase

*2021-02-23*

Complete rubbish not accurate not easy to use defiantly unfinished applying for refund

### 1/5 — iPad Air, iOS 12.4.5

*2020-03-03*

Need to close all background apps to get main screen.

### 1/5 — Imported photo at lower resolution

*2020-01-15*

I bought this to some work. Needed to measure map scale and then use that number to find distances on a map but the loaded photo was at a lower resolution than the actual photo so i can’t clearly see the scale - its too blury. It makes this a waste of money for me. It would be great if it could be loaded at same resolution.

### 3/5 — Annoying to use

*2019-07-22*

Idea is good - But it feels unfinished.
Difficult to position crosshairs because your finger blocks the view. Fine changes to position are not smooth. Limited zoom.

Add an off set zoom bubble so that the user can fine position the cross hair and actually be able to see where it’s being placed.

Right now I would not recommend any purchase of this app

### 1/5 — Difficult to use

*2019-04-16*

This app is very difficult to use. It is hard to place the measure points in the correct place with your finger blocking the view. A magnifying glass above the point would be helpful. The interfaces and functions are limited and not user friendly

### 4/5 — Rather usefull

*2019-04-14*

The only thing that bothers me is that images load in poor quality that does not allow to be precise enough. I got the average bias of 7%.

### 1/5 — Not what I wanted

*2019-02-09*

I guess this is usable but not at all what I wanted or could even use. Total waste of my money.

### 1/5 — Difficult to obtain accurate measure

*2019-01-23*

Due to the angle of the camera to the object it is almost impossible to measure items with any accuracy. 

My recommendation would be to add a bubble level to the camera mode as a quick fix but rather have a recorded plane whereby the phone is placed on the same plane as the object, a level taken and recorded and then another bubble during camera mode to ensure phone is held to recorded plane. This would make the app far more accurate.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on Black Pipe

*2018-08-16*

I tried using it in the crawl space to calculate the dimension of a coupler on black pipe. Didn’t work out. Deleting App.
