## What is Dimension Marker iP3?

"Dimension Marker iP3" makes it easy to mark the dimensions of any space or object DIRECTLY on photos or sketches - turning your iPad into a great assistant whenever, for example:

- You need to fit new furnitures when you redecorate or renovate your home.
- You bump into a nice piece of home accessory and wondered if it fits somewhere in your home.
- You need to explain the dimension of a product to your customers, in many cases, it's better to email a picture  with marked dimensions than to talk over the phone.


Few more examples when you need to remember sizes and dimensions during home improvement or rednovation:

- You want to pick the biggest possible flat panel TV that best fit the TV cabinet.
- You bump into a nice piece of decorative item and wondered if it fits into your bookshelf.
- There's a light switch on the wall and you want to find a bookshelf that's either short enough or narrow enough to leave the switch accessible.
- Need to measure the sizes of the 6 windows in the 3 bed rooms, living room and dinning room in order to get the right curtain for the right window.  
- You want to get a new cabinet that's big enough but not blocking the power outlet and the picture hung on the wall.

We normally take text notes but sometimes it's confusing. The bed room may have 2 windows and there are 3 walls in the dinning room.  Which wall is exactly "wall B" on my note? Which window is "window 1" on my note?  I jotted down the "length" of the cabinet, but now I forgot whether I meant the width or height.  To avoid mistakes and confusions, nothing's as straight forward as marking the sizes and measurements on the real photo or even a simple sketch. Remember, a picture worth thousands of words.  And that's what Dimension Marker's for.

### 1/5 — Designer

*2015-09-19, version 1.1*

It freezes in the first 15 sec...all nicknames are taken for reviews...!!!

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2015-02-11, version 1.1*

This app is a complete waste of money.  It does not work on iPad Air.  The camera does not function at all.  Disappointed that the App Store supports an App that is not updated for newer devices. Upset!

### 2/5 — AA Carpentry

*2013-10-22, version 1.1*

Great concept, needs some tweaks to dial it in... Could use an undo option, now if you make a mistake the whole deal has to be scrapped.

### 3/5 — Greg

*2013-05-13, version 1.1*

Works fairly well. It helps to use a stylus though. More colors for brushes would be a nice option as well as shapes and maybe some symbols. Also it would be helpful to save and save as so you could reopen and and info.

### 4/5 — Great app with pictures but...

*2012-11-04, version 1.1*

the erasure does not work. 

Will use this a lot in remodeling the house

### 2/5 — Not intuitive

*2011-05-11, version 1.1*

Good concept but needs more work on user interaction. It's hard to move the arrows around and align them because your fingers are over the arrows.  Can't draw floor plans to specific dimensions. So if I want a room 10 x 12 I just drag a line with my finer but no options for sizing proportionately. Can't draw straight lines.  It would be good for taking a photo of something in the store and dropping in dimensions.  Used it to take a photo of a room and add dimensions and it worked well.

### 2/5 — Save your money

*2011-01-06, version 1.0*

You can tell something is wrong when there are multiple bad reviews but no updates have been released.  A great idea that suffers from poor execution.  I would love for someone to take this idea and run with with for a proper app.  Also this is a .99 app if there ever was one, well it runs like a beta, so it should be free.

### 1/5 — Hardly works

*2010-08-28, version 0*

Lots of problems. Totally hangs up, you have close and open again and again to continue working. Says it has saved the drawing to your photos, it has not. Sometimes when your keyboard comes up to enter dimensions it leaves a white blank space and half your drawing has shifted up out of view.

### 3/5 — Great App, thank you!

*2010-08-25, version 0*

Free drawing sheet is perfect, boxes on background very helpful, recommended to anyone even thinking of renovating a space!
