Trash

A waste of my time

No Good

This app is junk and there is no support website.

Don't buy this app!

This app is more or less worthless. It doesn't work. Simple enough, but just gives blatantly wrong results.

Garbage

Complete waste of money. Has the developer never heard of "instructions"?

imeasure distance

This 99c app simply does not work Mr Mohomad Absolsalem is making money on a product that is usless. I have pointed the cross in the camera at door 3metres away and get distance readings of 18 to 20 metres. The App Store has a responsibility to test the products that they sell and make sure they work.
