Tired of texting strangers a photo of your passport? Same. IDfier lets you verify your ID once, then share a verified version of yourself with anyone who needs it, without handing over the document itself. How it works: 1. Scan your passport, national ID, or driver's license. Tap your phone to the chip if it has NFC. Take a quick selfie so we know it's you. 2. Build the things you want to share. An age check. Just your name. Full ID. A driver's license. Whatever the situation calls for. 3. Send it. QR code in person, link or short code online. They see verified data, not a screenshot. That's the whole thing. What people use it for: • Meeting someone from a marketplace or dating app and wanting to know they're real • Proving they're over 18 without showing their personal number and birthday • Renting a place, signing for a delivery, picking up a package • Onboarding to platforms that ask for ID without uploading documents to who-knows-where • Creators and freelancers who want a public profile that says "I'm a real person", not just another link-in-bio Three trust levels: Bronze covers the document scan and face liveness check. Silver is for BankID users in Sweden. Gold adds a face liveness check to Bronze. The more you verify, the more weight your shares carry. Login with IDfier: Some sites and apps let you sign in by scanning a QR code with IDfier. You see exactly which fields they're asking for and approve each one. No more uploading ID photos to random websites. Pricing: The first 10 exchanges are free. After that you top up with credits or subscribe for unlimited use. We don't sell your data, that would defeat the point. A few things worth saying: • Your documents stay on your device. We don't keep copies. • The app locks behind Face ID or Touch ID. • Sweden: BankID works as a shortcut for the initial verification. • Everywhere else: we read documents from over 200 countries. If something's broken or weird, the feedback button in your profile goes straight to us. We are all ears. — The IDfier team

Field Area Measure

Plotrace turns your phone into a land measuring tool. Walk the boundary of a field and let GPS trace it, or tap the corners on a satellite map — either way you get the area and perimeter in seconds. Built for farmers, landowners, surveyors, estate agents, contractors and anyone who needs a quick, defensible record of a piece of land. MEASURE YOUR WAY • Walk mode — carry your phone around the boundary and the path is recorded as you go • Tap mode — place corners by hand on high-resolution satellite imagery • Distance mode — measure a fence line, a track or a pipeline run • Circle mode — set a centre and a radius • Cut-outs — draw a pond, a building or a rocky patch inside a plot and its area is subtracted from the total UNITS THAT SUIT YOU Acre, hectare, bigha, guntha, cent, kanal, marla, square metre and square foot. Distance in metre, kilometre, foot, yard, mile, chain and furlong. Pick your defaults once and every screen follows, with two more units always shown alongside. WORKS WHERE YOU WORK GPS needs no signal bars. Measure in a field with no data connection and everything syncs the moment you are back online. Open the map over your land once before you set out and the imagery is ready when you arrive. KEEP A PROPER RECORD • Name every measurement and add a description • Attach photos straight from the field • Add notes as work progresses • Organise with coloured tags and folders • Search and filter your whole history EXPORT ANYTHING • PDF report with a real satellite map of the plot • JPEG image for a quick message or a printout • KML for Google Earth • GPX for handheld GPS units • CSV list of coordinates • DXF for CAD and professional GIS • Or export everything you own as a single .zip WORK AS A TEAM Group measurements into a project and share it with a join code. Give each person the right level of access: a Viewer opens and exports, a Surveyor adds their own measurements, an Editor changes boundaries, notes and sharing. Everyone is notified when the project changes. ON EVERY DEVICE Sign in with Apple, Google or email and your measurements, photos and projects are waiting on any device you use. FIELD TOOLS A compass, a coordinate converter, and area and distance converters, for the moments between measurements. A NOTE ON ACCURACY Plotrace measures with the GPS in your phone. In open ground that is typically accurate to within a few metres; trees, buildings and heavy cloud widen that. It is built for planning, quoting and record keeping — a legal boundary still needs a licensed surveyor. PLOTRACE PRO Plotrace is free to measure with. Pro removes the limits and unlocks unlimited saved measurements, projects and team sharing, and every export format. Subscriptions are billed through your Apple ID and renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in Settings, or from your Apple ID subscription settings.
