Goniometer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Goniometer turns your smartphone into a joint range-of-motion measuring tool, designed for physiotherapists and healthcare professionals. Using the device's inertial sensor (IMU), measure the angle of a movement in real time, set the zero in the starting position, then capture the left and right sides to compare. An asymmetry of 10Β° or more is flagged automatically. Three ways to measure β’ Motion sensor (IMU) β lay the phone against the segment and the angle updates live, with its trace. β’ Angle dial β a large, clear, centred reading. β’ On a photo β place three points (segment, joint, segment) and the angle is computed automatically. Highlights β’ Real-time measurement and set-to-zero (tare) β’ Left / right comparison and asymmetry detection (β₯ 10Β°) β’ Angle movement trace β’ Goniometric measurement on a photo β’ Built-in step-by-step help and FAQ β’ Available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch, Polish, Greek and Portuguese Goniometer is part of Physia, the clinical software ecosystem developed by Procaryote: rigorous, easy-to-use, privacy-first tools to assess, measure and follow up your patients. Goniometer is a measurement-aid tool for healthcare professionals; it does not replace clinical judgement or a certified medical device.

GonioCam turns your iPhone into a digital goniometer: take a photo, tap three joint landmarks β and read the joint angle, automatically expressed in neutral-zero notation (e.g. "Knee Ext/Flex 5-0-130"). MEASURE β FREE AND UNLIMITED β’ Take a photo or import one from your library β’ Tap three points, fine-tune to the pixel with the loupe β’ Live angle right on the image, large and readable β’ Presets for knee, hip, elbow, shoulder (flex/abd), ankle, wrist, neck, fingers, big toe and generic angles β each with landmark guidance β’ Hyperextension and deficit notation (0-10-90) handled correctly β’ Series assessment: several measurements in a row β right side first, then left, with an overview at the end β’ Share the photo with the angle drawn in (with a βMeasured with GonioCamβ banner) β’ Share photos from WhatsApp or Photos straight to GonioCam and measure them DOCUMENT β GonioCam Pro β’ Create patients (pseudonyms or initials recommended) β’ Assign measurements: left/right side, AROM/PROM, date β’ Progress curves across the whole treatment β’ Left/right side comparison in one chart β’ PDF report with curves, measurement table and photos β choose exactly what goes in β’ Unlimited assigned measurements β’ Share photos without the banner PRIVATE AND OFFLINE No account, no sign-in, no tracking. Photos and measurements stay on your device and are never written to your photo library. METHODOLOGY DISCLOSED The app includes a methodology and accuracy screen: measurement method, evidence on photo goniometry, and our own accuracy check against reference images with known angles. Plus a capture guide with the rules that carry the accuracy. IMPORTANT NOTICE GonioCam is a measurement and documentation tool (digital goniometer) and not an approved or certified medical device. It does not diagnose and gives no treatment recommendations. Clinical judgement remains with the treating professional. PURCHASE OPTIONS Measuring stays free. Unlock the documentation workflow (patients, progress, side comparison, PDF report) in one of four ways: a permanent one-time purchase, a yearly subscription with the first month free, a quarterly subscription, or a monthly subscription. Prices are shown in the App Store. Subscriptions renew automatically for the selected period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to the Apple Account and can be cancelled any time in its settings. When a subscription ends, patients, progress charts and the PDF export you already recorded stay readable - only creating new entries is locked.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Goniometer at none against GonioCam's 4. Goniometer also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
