### 1/5 — О

*2025-12-06, version 1.1.7*

Миллиметры неправильные на метры сантиметры метры километры с световой год фента метры

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-08-02, version 1.1.7*

It obviously has ads for revenue which is fine, but when you start the app after waiting the timer out and skipping the first ad, the second one appears, with no timer and an “X” button to escape that does not work its intended function to exit the ad. Engaging with the ad opens the advertised app download page in the App Store but there’s no way to get past that second ad to actually use the app. Useless.

### 5/5 — Klasse

*2025-02-10, version 1.1.7*

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

### 5/5 — Super App zum Messen

*2025-02-04, version 1.1.5*

Mit der App kann man echt gut messen, ich bin begeistert.

### 5/5 — Needs calibration but works well

*2024-09-20, version 1.1.4*

I’m not sure how well this would work for measuring but for distance judging for shorter distances it’s pretty accurate maybe 5%~ error 

But it’ll make sure you select the right height you’re holding the camera from otherwise it won’t be accurate but I found it to be off on distance by about 6” over the 10’ mark and same around the 10m, and 20m marks

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2024-06-18, version 1.1.4*

Good and easy to use. Multi unit option is convenient. I use it at the rifle range to determine target distance. I like it!

### 4/5 — Восхитительно

*2024-04-18, version 1.1.4*

Замечательное приложение! Измеряет с минимальными погрешностями, что очень хорошо для дальномера в телефоне (на дальномере 3,4 - на рулетке 3,35). Обязательно порекомендую всем! P.S: хотелось бы высоту установки камеры побольше (хотя-бы до 20 метров) и настройку в которой можно по перекрестию измерять (в начале без обучалки сложно догадаться)

### 1/5 — Генерация случайных чисел

*2023-04-20, version 1.1.4*

Если быстро перемещать, умножает расстояние на 2, на 3. Если медленно , делит на 2. Там где реальных 2 метра, может показать метр, а может 5 метров .

### 1/5 — неправильно измеряет

*2022-10-08, version 1.1.4*

вместо 2х метров рисует 7

### 1/5 — Hääääämmmm Jaa

*2022-01-04, version 1.1.4*

Die App geht garnicht.  Also Abstände von 3 Meter werden als 80-90m angezeigt.  Und beim Zollstock abmessen bekomme ich die Meldung das es zu weit weg ist.  Also 3m = 80m und 2m sind zu weit weg und können nicht genasen werden.  Nun ja 🤣.
