### 5/5 — Tut was es soll und das

*2018-10-15*

ziemlich gut.

### 1/5 — Utterly Complex. Not Remotely Intuitive

*2018-06-05*

This app is ridiculously complex, and not the least intuitive. I was not able to measure a single item!

Moreover, it does NOT work in LANDSCAPE. iPads are not phone-less iPhones. Nor are they large iPod Touches. iPad users work in LANDSCAPE. Moreover, not only does this app NOT work in LANDSCAPE, it sometimes freezes the device in portrait mode.

Before I spend $3.99 to buy an app, let alone subscribe to it, it has to be easy enough to use so that I can at least measure a single item with it, AND it has to work in landscape.

tl;dr => DO NOT BUY THIS APP!!

### 5/5 — Für mich perfekt

*2017-10-16*

Wenn es schnell gehen muss und man kein Maßband zu Hand hat super! Wer 100% Genauigkeit erwartet wird sicherlich mit einer App nicht glücklich werden. Man bekommt aber ne gute Vorstellung wo etwas hinpassen könnte.

### 4/5 — Gute App!

*2017-10-15*

Also die App ist eigentlich wirklich gut gelungen, ich habe jedoch 2 kleine Kritikpunkte. Generell könnte Funktionsweise der App zu Beginn besser erklärt werden, ich musste ein bisschen üben bis ich kapiert habe wie es funktioniert. Des weitern funktioniert das verschieben der Eckpunkte nicht immer zuverlässig. Wenn das behoben ist gebe ich 5 Sterne 😊. Ansonsten sehr schön gemacht!

### 5/5 — Klasse App!

*2017-10-10*

Ich hätte nie gedacht, dass Sachen ausmessen soviel Spaß machen kann - und dabei noch so einfach. :-) 5/5

### 5/5 — Well done

*2017-09-27*

I tried several apps with a similar function but this was by far the best one. Exactly the kind of AR-App I was looking for since Apple released the AR-Kit.
Simple and elegant.
And great commercial video by the way.

### 5/5 — Wirklich sehr schick

*2017-09-26*

Also ich find die App klasse! Sieht top und funktioniert auch genau wenn man ein bisschen übt. Eine deutsche Beschreibung wäre noch toll :) .
