ImageMeter puts measurements and notes directly into your photos. No more hand-drawn sketches that nobody understands: take a photo on site, draw the dimensions where they belong, add notes, detail images, or audio notes, and send a clear document to your clients and colleagues. ImageMeter is used by tradespeople, carpenters, kitchen and interior designers, property managers, sign makers, insurance assessors and many more. ENTER MEASUREMENTS YOUR WAY • Bluetooth laser meters: send measurements straight into the image. ImageMeter supports most laser distance meters with Bluetooth and, where the device allows it, triggers measurements remotely (https://imagemeter.com/manual/bluetooth/devices). • Measure in the image: set a reference, such as a known wall size, a sheet of paper or a known length, and ImageMeter calculates lengths and areas, even on surfaces seen in perspective. • Or simply type in the values from your tape measure. TOOLS FOR EVERY JOB • Lengths, areas, angles, circles and rectangles • Measurement strings and polylines • Counting tool • Text notes, freehand drawings and arrows • Audio notes and detail pictures inside the image • Line styles, colors, font sizes and arrowheads • Brightness, contrast and saturation for poorly lit photos PDF PLANS AND FORMS Import floor plans and drawings from PDF files. ImageMeter takes the scale of the drawing into account, so you can measure right on the plan. Fill your PDF forms directly in the app. EXPORT AND SHARE • Images as JPEG or PNG, annotated PDF documents and PDF reports • Data tables for bills of materials or measurement logs, ready for your spreadsheet • Editable image files for other ImageMeter users YOUR CLOUD, YOUR DATA Sync your images with the cloud storage of your choice: OneDrive, Dropbox, Google Drive, your own Nextcloud/WebDAV server or SFTP. Continue working on your office computer with ImageMeter for macOS, Windows and Linux. FREE, PRO AND BUSINESS ImageMeter is free to download and try. The free version has a limited number of measurements per image, and exported images carry a watermark.
