Very Convenient!!! I use a lot!

Use

Nah...

I gave them a buck, but not sure why. Maybe cause $.50 is not an option. I still don't get the purpose. Maybe the person who gave it a good review can explain it to the rest of us?

FAQ

What can I measure with this app?

This app allows you to measure the length of small objects that are under 9 inches (or 4 inches on an iPhone). It can measure in both inches and centimeters, making it versatile for various needs.

How does the app measure objects larger than the screen?

The app has a special feature that allows you to include the bezel of your device in the measurement. This enables you to accurately measure objects that are physically larger than your device's screen.

Can I measure the distance between two points?

Yes, the app allows you to touch two points on the screen, and it will tell you the distance between them. This is useful for precise measurements within your device's view.

Is this app free to use?

The app is free to download and use, but it offers in-app purchases. This means you can use the basic features for free, with options to upgrade or unlock additional functionality.

How can I share my measurements?

You can easily share your measurements directly from the app. It provides an option to email your recorded measurements, allowing you to send them to others for reference or documentation.
