Great App

The measurements are way off

The measurements are off, and no where near accurate. Waste of time.
Uninstalled.

Inaccurate ruler is inaccurate.

Update 12/08/2018: since my review below from about 2 years ago, the developer has posted several updates, none of which addressed the problem and a few of which simply resulted in a crashing app. The inaccurate ruler continues to be inaccurate as previously described. The incompetency on display here is simply stunning.

Original review:
The ruler feature is grossly inaccurate on my iPhone 6s. It’s actually off by exactly half (2” is really 1”, for example). It’s inexcusable that this has persisted for so long.

I whant my money back !!!

All moust stupid APP...don't work at all.It have many bugs.

Meh

Looking for a stud, get an actual stud finder. The app will make a sound as if it recognizes a stud but when I used an actual stud finder there was no stud.

The ruler is not right😡

Oh

Way off

What’s up with the ruler.

Useless and inaccurate. Crashes often

Would not recommend even for free. Poor performance and calibration and app freezes frequently. No wonder they started giving it away for free.

Misleading.

In spite of this up having a 4.0 review average, most reviews are negative. Don’t understand how they got a 4.0. I agree with the other critiques, pretty much excusable that the ruler is so far off and useless. The ruler scale has nothing to do with reality.
If the ruler was actually to scale I give this app a 3+

All the graphics are very nice and slick, but some of the measurements are difficult to do with such a small device as a iphone. So overall it has perhaps a better Interface for leveling, & degrees than the built-in Compass but so what?

Mostly inaccurate and unnecessary tools

I should give this app 1 Star, but I’m too analytical to just do that. 1 Star is for graphics. And 1 Star for lay flat bubble and pendulum feature. All other levels are inaccurate for reasons of power and volume buttons. Ruler is also way off. I measured something I know is exactly 3/4”, and this app said it was 1-1/2”. Also most of these features are built into your iPhone compass.

Talk about a waste of ones and zeros!

It does absolutely nothing except act as a level, which is already in the OS.

Doesn’t work

I bought this app because I wanted it and needed it, not just for ‘another interesting app’. Unfortunately I have struggled for days to make it work and it just persists in being confusingly complicated and stalls instead of actually doing its job. I’ll go for a refund (which I have never done before for any app) it is so disappointing and frustrating.
