## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Trash

*2022-01-31, version 1.0*

Doesnt even work

### 3/5 — Almost good…

*2024-05-05, version 1.1*

The idea behind the app and the usability in general are superb. I particularly love the clean and simple UI. However, there is one major design flaw that makes using the app in real-life scenarios pretty hard: the numbers of the measurement result are changing waaaay to fast and, therefore, are hard to read even in a perfectly steady environment. I strongly suggest to reduce the displayed result to one decimal as the LIDAR's accuracy does bot justify a second digit anyway. In addition, some smoothing and interpolation of the measurements over time would greatly enhance readability and usability. And boost my review to five stars in an instant. 😉

### 4/5 — Top

*2023-11-04, version 1.1*

Auf den ersten Blick erstaunlich gut
Toll wäre es, wenn man die Messung fixieren könnte, sodass man das iPhone bündig an die Wand halten könnte und durch Druck auf die leiser Taste ein Foto mit der Distanz gemacht wird

### 5/5 — Prima

*2024-11-17, version 1.1*

Die Software macht schnörkellos genau das was sie soll, nämlich mittels LiDAR die Entfernung vom Gerät zu einer Oberfläche zu messen. Hat bei mir in etlichen Versuchen problemlos funktioniert. Eine Hold Funktion wäre noch schön, um ohne Blick auf das Display z. B. die Entfernung von Wand zu Wand zu messen und erst anschließend auf das Display zu schauen.

### 5/5 — Simple but really useful

*2021-12-08, version 1.0*

This a one trick app - it measures the distance from your phone to a surface. But it is intuitive and genuinely useful and I have found I use it a lot more often than the apple measure app.
