## What is Even Spacing Calculator?

Plug in measurements, get perfect spacing instantly. Fractions or decimals, imperial or metric, on-center or edge. No ads, no tracking. Built by a woodworker.

Ever spent way too long doing mental math, only to end up with uneven gaps anyway? Yeah, that's frustrating.

Even Spacing Calculator takes the guesswork out of evenly distributing pieces across any length. Whether you're installing deck balusters, spacing recessed lights, hanging wall art, laying out a gallery wall, running conduit, building a fence, or arranging bookshelves... just plug in your numbers and get precise measurements instantly.

WHY YOU'LL ACTUALLY USE THIS:

Solve It Your Way
Know your pieces but need the gap? Or know your ideal gap and need to figure out how many pieces fit? The app works both directions. Plus, min/max gap range calculations help you find the sweet spot when you've got flexibility to work with.

Flexible Layouts
Set the number of pieces, enter your total length, and let the app handle the math. Works for projects big and small.

Units That Make Sense
Switch between metric and imperial whenever you want. Imperial users get accuracy down to 1/64" for when precision actually matters.

Center or Edge Placement
Choose how you want pieces distributed, with accurate on-center measurements so you know exactly where to mark.

Fractions or Decimals
Input measurements the way you already think about them. No conversions needed.

Save Your Projects
Building a deck today and a fence next week? Save each layout as a named project and pull it up instantly. Your measurements stay with you.

Print or Share
Print a clean summary on any AirPrint printer, or share it through Messages, Mail, or Notes.

No Ads. No Tracking.
Just a tool that does its job without interruptions or creepy data collection. Built by a woodworker for anyone who's tired of measuring twice, calculating wrong, and cutting once anyway.

### 5/5 — Great. Does it well.

*2026-04-15*

Works as promoted. Would be helpful if I were able to keep several projects, even it was limited to 5 or 10. Also the ability to print a summary of the layout and calculations.

**Developer response:** EDIT:

SammieLab -

I’ve just released a new version of the app with projects & print/share.

Please let me know if you have any feedback, and thanks again!

Thanks for the feedback and for sharing what would make the app better for you. I’ll see what I can do!

Thanks again!

### 5/5 — Excellent app! Request one feature…

*2025-12-19*

This app is great for my work, and I haven’t had any issues with it. It would be nice if you would input multiple sizes rather than just one size as I don’t always need to arrange several conduits of the same size. Sometimes they are different sizes to space out evenly. Thanks for the app, and maybe you could add that feature in the future. If it’s already there then I must not know how to find it.

### 1/5 — Horrific

*2025-06-01*

Very poor app, you cannot put the measurement in if it’s bigger than two numbers or even see what you are putting in.

**Developer response:** I’m sorry you have had a poor experience with the app. Unfortunately, I’m not able to understand or reproduce the issues you described.

If you’re comfortable, please email me at damonbauer@protonmail.com and we can try to resolve any problems the app is giving you.

Best regards,
Damon

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2024-12-28*

App worked great for a few weeks now can’t be opened. Gives me a message telling me to restart the app but there is no way of doing that. Tried deleting and redownloading but same error comes up. Tried contacting the app creator 3 times with nothing coming of it. If they are able to fix the problem I’d gladly change this to a 5 start but it not opening on my phone at all is more than annoying.

**Developer response:** Hi Okthisone? -

I’m so sorry this has been happening! I _think_ I tracked the issue down. I’ve released a new version of the app (3.4.0) that _should_ resolve the issue.

You mentioned that you tried contacting me, but I haven’t gotten any messages, so I need to check into that as well. For now, feel free to reach out to me directly at damonbauer@protonmail.com if you need anything.

I’m really sorry that this happened. I found an issue with the way the app was handling inputs & I’ve pushed a fix. Please try opening the app a few times - it should no longer give you the “something went wrong” message.

Thanks for taking the time to leave this feedback, I really appreciate it.

### 5/5 — Good once again

Highly recommend this app

**Developer response:** loopytrigger - 

I apologize for this. I found an issue with the way the app was handling inputs & I’ve pushed a fix. Please try closing and re-opening the app a few times - it should no longer give you the “something went wrong” error message.

Thanks for taking the time to leave this feedback, I really appreciate it.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2023-11-01*

The developer is responsive, and as I see from looking at other reviews has made recent updates to make this app even better.

This is a useful tool that helps to quickly calculate things, and provide a visual reference.

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your comment. I do try very hard to listen to & incorporate feedback. 

I’m delighted to hear the app is useful to you!

### 1/5 — Not good

*2023-10-27*

Hello I downloaded the app for comparison. 
But I saw quickly this app has few major issues. First if you type into the field a longer distance.. let’s say 2meter or 2000mm .. and then you want split it in 15 or 17 even spaces. U can’t read the numbers. What is missing .. first for bigger distances the chance to enter in cm or meter that you can read the numbers. Or at least let us zoom in to read the numbers. Otherwise for bigger distances useless and I wasted the $3. Unfortunately in this stage I can’t use it!

**Developer response:** Hello WNIFBC -

I apologize that this was your experience with the app. You’re right - the examples you laid out cause the app to be quite unusable.

While it’s not exactly the solution you proposed, I’ve just released a new version of the app that allows you to display a table with each piece’s start and center measurements. I’m hopeful that even when there’s not enough space for the preview to show all the pieces & measurements, this table will still provide the essential data you’re looking for. 

Let me know what you think!
Damon

### 5/5 — Residential Remodeler - Very Helpful

*2023-10-21*

While the app could use a few directions and tweaking, its actually extremely helpful. From a pro perspective, I realize there are many ways to divide up a space, but once you get how this works, I think it makes it so much quicker. It’s absolutely worth getting.

Suggestions: 
1) Change the label from ‘update’to ‘calculate’, it’s more intuitive. 

2) When new information is entered, highlight the update/calculate button, so the user realizes they need to click it to change what they’re seeing. 

3) Most helpful for me, would be to label the starting measurement of every point versus the center measurement of every point or have it as an option.   For example, if the spacing is calculated out and the center of X aligns with the 2 1/2” mark, but its 1” wide and actually placed beginning at the 2” mark, that’s how I want to see it to lay it out with a tape measure.  Otherwise I need to find the center of every piece and line up both centers, just adds work. 

Great app though Thank you.

**Developer response:** Hi  Cmstskrt -
I’m really glad to hear you’ve found value in this little app & especially grateful that you have taken the time to write your thoughts & leave a review!

I’ll be sure to take a look at implementing your suggestions, I totally agree that it would help the app be even better.

Thanks again,
Damon

### 1/5 — Piece first

*2023-08-10*

How can I put piece first instead of a space on each end

**Developer response:** Hello,

You need to:

- increase or decrease the number of pieces
- toggle the “Pieces on ends” switch
- press “Update”
