The app still crashes

The app still crashes on my iPhone 17 and IPad after restarting tried everything whenever I measure the height of something, could you please make a new app update? It still hasn’t been fixed yet.

Response from developer

Thank you for your feedback, and we’re sorry for the inconvenience. We understand that the app is crashing on both iPhone and iPad when measuring height. This is not the experience we want, and it may be related to device-specific AR processing or a bug in the measurement module. Please make sure you’re using the latest version of the app and restart your device. If the issue continues, contact our support team with your device models and iOS versions so we can investigate and fix it. Thanks for reporting this — it helps us improve stability.

Great app

The app offers everything I needed. Plus it was free with no strings attached or in app purchases. It’s admirable because the app I tried before this had a 3-day trial with $3.99/ month after that just to open the app, no exaggeration. It’s reliable and offers more than its competitors for free.
Great app, well done.

Ausrichtung falsch

Nur mal so als Tipp, aber vielleicht ist es ja gewollt, aber irgendwie stimmt die Ausrichtung nicht, die Schrift liegt immer auf der Seite.

FAQ

What can I measure with this app?

You can measure linear sizes in centimeters and inches, distances using augmented reality, angles, area, perimeter, volume of 3D objects, and the length/area of paths. It also includes an on-screen ruler for measuring small objects directly on your smartphone's screen.

How does the Augmented Reality (AR) feature work?

The AR feature allows you to accurately measure distances from your device's camera to points on a detected 3D plane. This enables you to measure larger objects or spaces that wouldn't fit on your screen.

Is this app free to use?

Yes, the app is free to use. However, it does display advertisements to support its development and maintenance.

Can I save my measurements?

Yes, the app allows you to save your measurements. This is useful for keeping track of dimensions for projects or for future reference.

What devices is this app compatible with?

While specific compatibility details are not provided, AR features typically require devices that support ARKit (for iOS) or ARCore (for Android). The on-screen ruler functionality should be broadly compatible with most smartphones.
