CastleWise

Made for iPhone Duo, and the open phone now reads like it was drawn for it: everything sits on the system's own margin line, Records lay out four across, the extras menu is the system's, and propped half open, FixLens keeps your past scans on the flat half beside the composer. The hinge is a protractor. The Workshop's Reference shelf gains an Angle Finder: set one half on each surface, push the hinge into the corner, and it reads the angle, with the miter, roof pitch and stair check worked out under it. Closed, CastleWise is the phone app you know, with the tabs and toolbar on a rail down the side. Open it and the binder opens too: Records shows the list of categories beside the records you are reading, the Workshop shows its sections beside the playbook or calculator you are using, and FixLens keeps the ideas and your past scans beside the composer and the verdict. Prop the phone half open on the counter next to the thing you are fixing and FixLens becomes a workbench: the reading half stands up, the controls lie flat where your hands are. Coach marks and overlays stay off the fold. Two CastleWise windows side by side, or CastleWise beside the store page or your contractor's messages. While FixLens is photographing a label with the phone open, the outer display tells whoever is holding the flashlight what the camera needs. Everything else is the same app: records on your phone, reminders, 86 guides, 120 playbooks, FixLens. Also: the User Guide reads the live price, and a few labels caught up with the version.
