## What is Cubit?

Cubit lets you measure distances with its Ruler tool, visualize the size of objects with its Box tool, and see how your photos look on a wall with its Photo Frame tool. Everything you do is saved in the History tool. Unlike other “AR ruler” apps, Cubit's intuitive UI makes it easy to take accurate measurements.

Cubit features include:

• Ruler tool - measures distance between points. You can put as many ruler lines in the scene as you like and they're tappable so they can be deleted. The measurement label on the line follows the camera so that it's always visible.
• Box tool - visualize the size and position of objects of all kinds. For example, if you're thinking about buying a couch, you can lay a box down of that exact size to see if it will fit in your space. You can then measure around it with the Ruler tool.
• Photo Frame tool – put your photos in a virtual frame and see how they look on your wall. Choose from 4 different frame styles.
• History tool - see all your previous measurements. Any time you create a ruler line or a box, a photo is automatically taken and stored in History. You can also snap a photo of the scene to History at any time.
• Boxes and ruler lines can be placed next to each other so, for example, you could see how much room you'd have from your new couch to the wall next to it.
• All lines and boxes are selectable and removable.


FAQ:

— What kinds of things can Cubit measure?
Cubit is best at measuring across horizontal flat surfaces, but can also measure vertical surfaces with less accuracy.

— What devices does Cubit work with?
Cubit uses Apple's ARKit technology which requires iOS 11 or newer on an iPhone SE, iPhone 6s/6s Plus, iPhone 7/7 Plus, iPhone 8/8 Plus, iPhone X, iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, iPhone 11, iPad Pro, or 9.7-inch iPad (2017 or newer).

— How accurate is Cubit?
In our testing with ideal conditions (flat horizontal surface and good lighting), measuring accuracy is around 99%. For vertical surfaces, double-check that the start and end points are correct as you measure. If they are, the measurement should have the same accuracy.

— How can I access previous measurements or virtual boxes I placed?
Use the included History tool! Cubit automatically takes photos of lines and boxes as you place them, and is even smart enough to automatically update its snapshots if it sees a better photo opportunity arise.

— Why “Cubit”?
Glad you asked! The cubit is a unit of measurement used by multiple ancient civilizations.

### 1/5 — 闪退 垃圾

*2024-07-06*

闪退

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2019-11-11, version 1.5.3*

Crashes immediately on open.

### 2/5 — box function does not seem to be accurate

*2019-07-02, version 1.5.3*

I really want the box feature to work but it's just not accurate, even after "calibration." The ruler function is pretty accurate, but if I try to create a box same dimensions as what I just measured, the overlay will not match up no matter how I move the box or "lock to floor." Maybe I'm using it wrong. Disappointed.

### 2/5 — Wait a minute...

*2018-10-28, version 1.5.3*

I downloaded this as a “free” app; free for a limited time only they said. So now you’re telling me it’s only free for 14 days? Is that the limited time? Something’s not right here...

10/28: I replied as you had requested and asked you to respond to my question - you never did...I guess that is my answer. Also speaks a lot about your app.

### 3/5 — Blurry

*2017-11-16, version 1.0.1*

It’s an ok app but could use a tuneup, all the pictures you save and even the live view are blurry, as swell it would be nice to be able to change the colour of the box, maybe you can and I just haven’t found it yet. Thanks.

### 1/5 — Stuck on calibration

*2017-10-19, version 1.0.1*

App keeps telling me to look around to calibrate. Message never goes away or indicates that calibration is working.

### 1/5 — Buggy

*2017-10-14, version 1.0.1*

Crosshairs don’t appear and the look around to calibrate won’t go away.

### 1/5 — Rarely works

*2017-10-05*

The app is constantly showing “Accuracy limited” no matter where I try to measure. It’s very rare to get a solid reading

### 5/5 — Clean, intuitive, great app

*2017-09-23*

Cubit is clean, intuitive and above all, accurate and fun to measure things.

Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Quick and Easy Measurements

*2017-09-22, version 1.0*

This is a great way to get quick measurements. Great if, like me, you can never find a tape measure when you need one. It’s super helpful when trying to rearrange a room or get furniture. The app is simple and easy to use and quite accurate in my experiences. The saved history is also super handy.
