Tape Measure® for Negative User Reviews

✓ Not easyNot accurate either. I’m reverting to Apple’s built-in app, Measure. Much easier and more accurate..BelovedraVersion: 1.0.6

✓ HorsesxxtTerrible app the measurements are way off on the iPhone 6.JakosisVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Too difficult- didn’t work as expectedI tried this app to see about using the floor plan portion. Every time I pointed the little pin at a corner or anywhere it said to press the large plus sign. The plus sign always seemed grayed out and never worked..Gus SillypantsVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Tape measureAbsolute rubbish don’t waste your time with it..@£(?Version: 1.0.3

✓ Free(ish) But LimitedSeems to work fine for measuring short distances like for hangin on hoots. Fairly useless as a whole room measurement tool if you have any furniture obstructing a corner of the floor. It doesn’t seem to be able to measure walls unless you can see all of the floor unlike other apps that can calculate the floor corners based on the ceiling corner locations. So if you need to measure a furnished room, you may run into issues. Also, free-ish because the developer does disclose that the app tracks your activity for linking you with other apps and web sites..Nathan SheldonVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Says it’s compatible...NOT!Looked like a great app to watch the videos of what it can do. Said it would work on this iPhone. However upon opening the app after it downloaded it said ARKIT features unavailable. Virtual ruler and other tools require ARKit. 🤔 Too bad it didn’t say that anywhere before getting it. 👎 I’m using an iPhone 6 model MG4R2LL/A with version 12.1.4. Bummer. 🙁.Alan LayneVersion: 1.0.3

✓ No use at allI tried this app and of the 4 things I measured, not one was even remotely accurate. Why anyone would say it IS accurate is a mystery!.Ian ManningVersion: 1.0.6

✓ As useful as a chocolate teapotHaving calibrated this app I proceeded to measure the aperture for a new front door (for quote) 140cm x 180cm high. Being a little unsure about the measurement given, I checked against a standard retractable measure, the result was 150cm x 207cm! Be warned. I am Apple’s greatest fan but I don’t know if the issue is attributable to Apple or this app, in any event it is a fail. Perhaps it is due to my lack of understanding of how it works, but if it's that easy to get wrong you still need to be aware..ReeeversVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Measure unreadable on iPhone 11IPhone 11 displays edge to edge, except at the top center. This app displays the results of measurements at the top center of the screen, right in the dead spot. Since I can’t find a way to reconfigure where the measurement result appears on the screen, I will delete this app..Chip_sticksVersion: 1.0.5

✓ StuckCan’t get off page after selecting cm/inches.Danze31Version: 1.0.3

✓ Too complicatedEven the video explaining how to use the app didn’t make sense. I would not trust the measurements from this app for anything important due to its usability. I gave it two stars instead of one because perhaps if I’d persevered I’d have got used to it. However, instead I spent 10 mins searching for my easy to use tape measure..BradyzzzzVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Doesn't workEvery time I have tried to measure a distance, half way through it loses inches and the length ends up short than the object is. I was measuring a straight object, it got to 3.2 feet and suddenly showed 2.7 feet instead. So instead of the correct length it was too short. I tried several times, even moving very slowly and steadily. The last time the total was heading to what I expected it to be but right at the end it dropped a foot..Bw2004Version: 1.0.3

✓ Doesn’t workDownloaded it and got stuck on a ruler that doesn’t move. Waste of time. Deleted the app..Haddona32Version: 1.0.3

✓ Somewhat worksFor things close up, about 12-15” it is accurate. Step 3 feet away, and it was consistently off by 3/4” to 2”. Better to just do things old fashion, and use a tape measure. Even after getting a decent reference measurement, take a few steps back of the same an it is off..King_Guido_1Version: 1.0.6

✓ Doesn’t workIt’s basic measuring tape..Jaykz55Version: 1.0.2

✓ Even Free is not worth it!Frustrating and useless would be how I describe this app. Can’t see any way this could be more accurate than eyeing it, or even guessing. Maybe with the paid version... although there really seemed to be no documentation on how to use the deee version or what was needed to use the paid features. Buy a mini tape measure for your keychain, it will do more good!.'50ChevyVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Doesn’t always workI appreciate the format of the app, but I would never use this professionally (at my work) I tested it at home and it seems to be accurate about 50% of the time. It definitely could use some work..Jakeman1010Version: 1.0.6

✓ Does not even let me measure!This app is terrible it give me the instructions to slide the iPhone and slide the screen. Doesn’t let me get past that. I have an iPhone 5s and the instructions had an iPhone X. Maybe that’s the problem...🤯 But that’s the only good reason why it might not work but it had it in the Apple Store... Just don’t waste your time and download this app!.Megidd1024Version: 1.0.2

✓ Absolute rubbishNo matter how much you try and do, it will not work!.Regular user of translatorsVersion: 1.0.6

✓ JunkWaste on my time.Fucksakes112121Version: 1.0.6

✓ I’m stuckThis looks like a great app but I can’t get off the page where you decide from inches or centimetres what do I do???.Roblox gemerVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Doesn’t workOn screen, ruler and laser distance measure won’t work..Poorya RashidiVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Doesn’t measureI downloaded the app and it only shows the slide ruler option. The slide ruler option must be manually moved (with your finger). I’ve tried it on multiple surfaces, nothing happened except my finger got a workout. I’m not sure what the purpose of this app is. It says additional features require the ARKIT app. So basically this app shows what a ruler looks like but has no other function..CowsaysmootooVersion: 1.0.3

✓ CassandraWorked once. Not correct measurements. Didn’t work again.Samkitten_77Version: 1.0.3

✓ Wildly inaccurateJust downloaded to measure a window…. Same window… 3 completely random measurements. Useless. Will be deleting..Amble48Version: 1.0.6

✓ Useless App - use a tape measure instead.The app isn’t able to measure anything. It keeps telling me to scan the area. So I spend several minutes trying to scan the area being careful not to scan too fast because then the app loses tracking. As soon as it is finally ready to measure it loses tracking and I have to scan the area again. I finally just deleted the app and used a tape measure instead..StrangeEmuVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Useless!Terrible product. Total con..Burt The BuilderVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Hard locked my iPhone 11 Pro for several minutes.The virtual tape measure works well, but the in screen tape measure wouldn’t work. More concerning is that this app caused such a performance issue so bad, I couldn’t remove the app or restart my iPhone. Eventually, my iPhone caught up and I was able to remove the app. The performance issue was solved by removing this app. Cannot recommend..ScottH00000001Version: 1.0.6

✓ AwfulReally bad tricks you into thinking it is a virtual reality but it is actually just a really normal tape measure.ReviewlegendVersion: 1.0.3

✓ FantasticThus is a truly excellent a useful app. Thank you..SlawdudeVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Does not measureThe actual size on the screen does not measure 1 inch (for fun only).AceshootaVersion: 1.0.3

✓ AwfulCompletely faulty. Once opened it appears to be good until you quickly realise that it doesn’t work at all and is completely flawed 😂.HeheheheheeheheheheheheheheVersion: 1.0.6

✓ Crashed my phone!Awful! Told me measure a virtual table to get started, and then my phone just froze. Wouldn’t reset. Ive deleted it straight away. I have a 256gb iPhone 11..ChriszicoVersion: 1.0.6

✓ That's it?Wow! What a waste of time and Apple money! Stupid app!.Todd1245Version: 1.0.2

✓ Impressive but buggy!This is an ambitious app (well it appears that way, although it's possible that all the impressive programming is provided by Apple's AR frameworks), but it fails miserably at times. For example, it's really cool that I can visualize (virtual) furniture in a (real) room, but the fact that the furniture refuses to rest on the floor and instead floats in the air means I'm going to go looking for a different app. This showed me what is possible with available AR apps, but it didn't deliver. Keep looking, or test an updated version to see if they've fixed it since I wrote this....Mister zedVersion: 1.0.3

✓ What’s the cost???Seems I might have mistakenly paid for this app but I can’t dim any info anywhere as to how much it costs! I want to cancel this!.Jrt333Version: 1.0.3

✓ Couldn’t get it initializedI fought with the app for about 5 minutes. It repeatedly showed a message stating there was too much motion or it was too dark. I’ve given up and will uninstall it..Michael SicaVersion: 1.0.3

✓ Doesn’t workI just want a ruler. That’s all I ask. This one doesn’t even want to display the markings on the screen. It’s like my phone is too narrow, just barely seeing the odd marker off the edge of the display.Thatnicknameistaken1Version: 1.0.6

✓ Practically unusableI don’t find this tool accurate or usable. The top of the screen on an iPhone 11 is cut off and the measurement is unreadable. Floor plans do not show the camera view and are only dots with lines between. Great ads though. The tape measure graphic keeps going away to only a line and the line has no data on it. The free measure app in iOS is more usable. Sry, I was hoping this was better..DowntownmtbmikeVersion: 1.0.5

✓ Not accurateOn my iPad 2, the 19cm which it shows, is 1mm short when compared to my steel ruler (thus 18.9cm) and on the inch scale it is 1/16 of an inch short over the 7 & 3/4 inches it can measure..Dr M FosterVersion: 1.0.6

✓ RubbishExplanation on how to use doesn’t make sense and using it is a nightmare. It’s no where near accurate and the tape measure moves around whilst trying to measure things which makes it impossible to use..Hot melvinVersion: 1.0.4

✓ Piece of junkIt looked very promising, however, none of the help videos work on iPhone. I tried to click on the email developer within the app, and it would not let me click on send. Seems to be like nothing important works so for all intense purposes, this was like a video game a.k.a. waste of time..Nnx cnnd dVersion: 1.0.6
