### 1/5 — Don't download

*2014-09-29*

10 in?  Really?  What a waste of download time. And does not work well.

### 1/5 — Useless is accurate description.

*2014-05-26*

I'd give 0 stars if it were an option.  Maybe if there were instructions on use I'd feel differently.  As it is, this appears to be nothing more than a ploy to get users to look at the company's other apps.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2014-04-25*

Just useless

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2014-03-31*

Impossible to use

### 1/5 — Bad

*2013-11-15*

Waste... Is not convenient

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2013-10-06, version 2.0*

Can't figure out the instructions!

### 1/5 — Says it measures 2 feet, it does't

*2013-09-20*

Misleading you have to pay to get 2 feet

### 1/5 — Ahhh

*2013-09-12*

Lame

### 1/5 — Useless

*2013-09-10*

What is this supposed to do. It does 't measure anything

### 1/5 — ????

*2013-09-07, version 2.0*

Je n'ai jamais compris comment l'utiliser.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2013-09-02*

Don't like it, at all.

### 1/5 — Don't like

*2013-08-20*

I put my finger on the phone and followed the instructions and NOTHING!  Wouldn't waste my time.

### 1/5 — Simply doesn't work

*2013-08-09*

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Measurements not accurate

*2020-05-10*

Measurements are not accurate and way off.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2018-09-23, version 2.2*

The ruler is inaccurate on my iPhone 6s Plus

### 1/5 — One inch is not one inch

*2018-08-16*

With this ruler, one inch is about 1.3".  This is not helpful in my very precise world...

### 1/5 — Thumbs down.

*2018-07-12, version 2.2*

Totally inaccurate. Need to 'buy' different rulers. Gives very little instructions about how to use. Disappointing.

### 1/5 — How did the app review let this get through?

*2018-01-07, version 2.2*

First, it can’t even accurately do its main purpose on any device aside from whatever device the developer made it on. I have an iPhone 6S Plus and one inch is actually about 2 because the app is auto scaled up to the phone’s native resolution. 

Second, the app has a child like theme to it, which makes it even worse as kids trying to learn will learn the entirely wrong way. 

Developer: I suggest you pull this app down so you don’t trick people into believing their wee wee actually is an above average size.

### 1/5 — Scale incorrect on iPhone 6S Plus

*2017-02-08, version 2.2*

Scale incorrect on iPhone 6S Plus

### 1/5 — Doesn't work

*2017-01-15*

Garbage

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2016-10-02*

Needed to measure something less than an inch. It was off by an with inch.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2016-05-10, version 2.1*

Utterly useless. 2 inches is all you get unless you pay for an upgrade. Cannot even measure a piece of paper, it is such CRAP.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2014-12-10*

Zero stars. Why didn't I believe other reviews? I didn't believe it could be that bad.

## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Tape

*2015-01-17, version 2.1*

Very good

### 5/5 — Ok

*2013-07-06, version 1.0*

Not bad. What u'd expect, sort of

### 5/5 — Get it..

*2013-05-14*

Easy to use and love the colors!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2013-04-27*

Very easy to use! Thank you for creating such a great app!!

### 4/5 — Ruler

*2014-11-20, version 2.1*

Very simple basic app which gets the job done fast.

### 3/5 — Not exciting but useful and not bad.

*2014-11-15, version 2.1*

For me it's useful. Can't always take a ruler everywhere. Not very exciting compared to other apps as you can do so much there most of the time but personally that does not bother me seeing as what I needed was a ruler or some type of mobile measurement on the go when I'm out and about and don't have my whole sewing kit on me by coincidence. 😉
Would recommend to anyone who had the same problem like me. No deletion material not matter how few things you can do with a measuring tape on your phone apart from measuring something. Some people complained I. Other reviews I have read about similar apps that you could not do anything with it - well, what can we expect of all we need is a ruler??!

### 3/5 — It's ok.

*2014-05-21, version 2.1*

My last comment was unfair. The app does the job.

### 2/5 — Not accurate

*2018-05-23*

I have an iPhone 6s and the inches aren’t accurate. 2” in real life measures 1 3/4” on the phone. I thought I was going nuts trying to measure something...

### 2/5 — Too short

*2015-01-08*

Don't believe the posted picture — it's a max of 240mm
