Ruler problemAs others have mentioned, the ruler is completely inaccurate— magnified about 1.5 times. Needs to be calibrated for iPhone 6 or have a manual scale adjustment. Come to think of it, wouldn’t an architect scale ruler be useful for reading plans. Upgrade needed!.Version: 2.2.4

Ruler is very inaccurateApp was good for years but now with the Iphone 12 Pro the ruler is way long. Get this updated. The rest is still working. I saw it said to recalibrate double click the home button. Really, what home button? Get it up to date..Version: 3.0.1

Nice level. Protractor does not work as expectedI’ve been using the free level for some time and it works great. I needed a protractor so paid for the full version. But the protractor is not like the others where you tilt to get a reading. It’s just a fixed thing where you can drag the needle to manually measure an angle. Weak sauce. Because protractor was the main reason I bought it o give 2stars. If it were just the level I’d give 5 stars. The level wire and is artsy to boot but I already had that in the other version..Version: 3.0.1

Level beepingLike all electronic beeping levels I use in work, the beep should switch to a constant sound as soon as it reaches level. This way you dont need to look at the screen, you can hold up a piece of wood and mark when you hear the sound change. This is a small fix, but would be very beneficial!.Version: 2.0.4

Does not support latest generation iPhone screensI have been using this program for years and have generally loved it. Personally, I use the ruler and the level most often. However, the ruler scale is way off on the iPhone11 — it thinks the nearly 6”/15cm screen is less than 3”/7.5cm long. It this bug is addressed, this goes back to 5 enthusiastic stars..Version: 3.0.1

Ruler is wrongNo way to calibrate the ruler. It’s way off for my screen. Must not be in their database of phones they support. If you have a new phone don’t get this..Version: 3.0.1

Great idea, wrong scale for iPhone 6-11The following is what I wrote when I got iPhone 6. As far as I remember they fixed it somewhere in the past, but when phones grew bigger, the app remained the same. Using iPhone 11 now and the ruler is way off. Can’t they fix it? //iPhone 6 review// The app is great. Gives me what I want when I don't have my tools with me. However, using iPhone 6 it's ruler accuracy is totally off. The scale stretches to the screen size rather than adding to the ruler, so any measure is wrong. Expecting a fix. since it’s such an old comment from many users, that no one bothers to answer, not to mention introduce a fix - I will start looking for other apps. Guess the developers are too busy w/ their day job.Version: 3.0.1

Outdated and inaccurateLast upgrade over a year ago! Really? Why so long? I agree with others that the ruler is useless on an iPhone 11 since both cm and inches are way off. Calibration does not work. Developers need to put a little more attention into their product..Version: 3.0.1

Trouble switching from one tool to anotherEvery time I try to use a new tool from the tool box, it takes me to the screen to buy the app even though I already have it!!! Ugh!! Frustrating!.Version: 3.0.1

DommageJ’utilisais l’application depuis 4 ans sur mon iPone 5 et je la trouvait utile. Malheureusement, la réglé ne peut être calibrée pour le iPhone X. J’attends toujours une mise à jour..Version: 2.2.4

Ruler doesent workI had this a few years and loved it on the seldom few occasions I would need it. When I bought a new phone the ruler no longer works. The iPhone 11 has been out quite some time and they still haven’t updated it to properly format with the bigger phone screen. The level still works great though. Actually all the other parts still work just fine. But if your after a handly little ruler, look elsewhere..Version: 3.0.1

Horrible instructions for how ruler worksEvery tool in this is intuitive, except the ruler. No idea how to use it. Found the help section and it shows and illustration for calibration. Has arrow for swiping finger? I don’t get any feedback from the app so no idea if I am doing things correctly. And actually, I have no idea how to use the ruler. I literally just stare at it and have no idea how it works. Do you point the phone at an end point? Swipe as you go? Maybe it just doesn’t work so I have no feedback like the other tools, which you see it working and quickly understand how to use. With that said, the fact that the ruler doesn’t work I give it 1 star..Version: 3.0.1

Iphone 4 ProblemThis was a nice little app on my IPHONE 3, but it does not appear to work with IPHONE 4, it loads but none of the levels work they just sit still and it has 2 " rad " words on the screen. Please Fix Thanks.Version: 0

RulerSame on iPhone 7, measurements do not match measuring tape or ruler! Would appreciate a fix to this issue for a better star rating..Version: 2.2.4

Ruler is wrongI’ve had this app for years and loved it. But the ruler is literally 200% off. Not sure why they can fix this, but sadly, I think it’s time for a new app..Version: 3.0.1

Ruler is off every time the phone or iOS changes.I’ve asked the developer before and eventually it was “fixed” but it seems like a static fix. Just got a new phone with a larger screen and the ruler is wildly off again with no way to recalibrate. Otherwise this would have been a good app. I’ll look elsewhere I guess.Version: 3.0.1

Scale of ruler way out of whack iPhone 11 ProLooks to be magnified about double. Other tools are fine..Version: 3.0.1

Fix the ruler, please!Hey developers, this is a pretty good app, but in case you haven’t noticed, new iPhone screens are larger. Shocking, right? So how many more users have to point out this issue before you provide a fix for this?.Version: 3.0.1

Please update for newer phones!This has been my go to app for YEARS, to measure my knitting when I am out and about, checking my camper van is level in a field, and all sorts of other users. Just upgraded to iPhone 11 and the ruler is now miles out! Really big and completely useless. Shame!.Version: 3.0.1

Ok for the levels ONLYThe levels are handy but the ruler is a disaster. I measured a 2” object and the app said it was 1-½”!.Version: 3.0.1

Wasn't worth it for me... ruler is uselessI upgraded from the free bubble level bar which was great because I thought the ruler might move in real space (lots of apps do), especially as they pretend it's worth .99 on it's own. But no, it's the same as all the free rulers out there, it gives you 6cm and that's it. Plus it crashes the iPod/audio when you run this. Stick with the free bubble level app, it's the best by miles, and they cleverly made it the free one..Version: 0

Partially usefulExcept ruler application useful.Version: 3.0.1

Measuring / RulerSo today while I was sitting down to try see if the measurements matched up with a tape measure and I was disappointed to find out it was off , currently have an iPod 6th gen.Version: 2.2.4

Won’t working iPhone 11 ProI can’t seem to get this to open now! I’ve upgraded to an iPhone 11 pro..Version: 3.0.1

AbandonwareDon’t buy this and support such shady software. Ruler is almost 2” for each inch, and calibration is impossible. The other items are of questionable accuracy as well..Version: 3.0.1

What’s the point of a ruler app that’s wrong?As noted by other reviewers, the ruler is completely off. I naively expected that this issue would have been fixed as some of the reviews were posted quite some time ago. My mistake. If you want a useless tool, buy this app..Version: 2.2.4

Ruler is wrongThe ruler measurements are around double what they should be..Version: 3.0.1

Not accurateNeeds to be updated for iPhone 6 and 6 plus; inch and cm measurement is way off!!.Version: 2.2.2

Good for non professionalA very handy app however, calibration needs to be fixed. Other apps have a multiple set method which is much better for accuracy. Plumbob very finiky, protractor jumpy..Version: 0

Yo broSeems ok.Version: 2.1.0

5 Star if ruler is updated.Ruler showing as 1cm = 1.5cm!!!! How are you supposed to use this feature? Please update this and I will change the rate to 5 star..Version: 2.2.4

An inch is not an inchThe ruler no longer appears to work. I wonder if it was calibrated for the traditional iPhone and it is now stretched on a 6/7/8 iPhone..Version: 2.2.4

RulerDoesn’t work inches and centimetres not accurate, much too large on my iPhone se. Never had this problem in the past. Used the app for years without problems. Please fix..Version: 3.0.1

Unable to calibrate rulerWould give a far better rating if all 5 tools worked. Also, this is a purchased app and don’t appreciate the in-app link to other apps..Version: 3.0.1

Useless!This was a good app on an iPhone 5 but has not been updated to adjust to larger phones. The ruler still says 7cm on my iPhone 11 Pro Max when is 15.8 cm long. The level is also way off to centre it the phone was on a 30 degree angle. The app is now completely useless..Version: 3.0.1

RulerThe ruler on my iPhone 11 Pro has incorrect numbering.Version: 3.0.1

Ruler stretchedThe ruler is wrong - it says my screen, which is about 5” long, is actually 3”..Version: 3.0.1

You're joking right? 1 star for aestheticsThe 'calibrate' button makes whatever angle the iPhone is on = 'level'. So if it is on a 45 degree angle, and I press calibrate, apparently 45 degrees is level. I'd hate to eat off that table. Isn't the point of this app, to tell ME what is level, not the other way around? Do I need an actual level to calibrate this against? What am I missing?.Version: 0

MrPlumb bob hangs up frequently. Others seem to work ok.Version: 0

Ruler scale is brokenDoesn’t scale correctly for new iPhones, so an inch is not an inch! Other functions are working properly.. Needs an update..Version: 3.0.1

Ruler not iPhone 6+ zoom mode compatibleThe app looks nice, but sadly the ruler is completely inaccurate when zoom mode is enabled on my iPhone 6+. And unfortunately the phone needs to be restarted in order to change this setting, so the software is currently of limited value. Hopefully this can be fixed in a future version..Version: 2.2.2

Ruler is way offUseful tools and nice clean interfaces, but the ruler is enlarged (very wrong) on iPhone 12, and therefore not useable. The app needs updating for the latest iPhone lineup to fix this. Would give a good rating if it weren’t for this..Version: 3.0.1

This app is crap, waste of time and money.This app is crap, waste of time and money. Don’t waste your time..Version: 3.0.0

Spoiled by ruler not calibrated to newer phonesRoller miles put on iPhone 11 Pro. Shame..Version: 3.0.1

Ruler is yet to be fixedI enjoyed this in the iPhone 4s days but as the iphone screens got bigger the program doesn’t calibrate ruler for the bigger screens and the scale is just magnified and thus too large. Fortunately all other portions of the app are still good..Version: 3.0.1

Level does not workIthe level should rotate it shows that it does but does not making this useless to me sorry to have gotten the app.Version: 3.0.1

Used to work great. Now ruler is brokenThis has been a great app for me for years but with the new iPhone 12 the ruler scale is off and unusable. Not sure if the other components are off also now but certainly can’t be trusted anymore. Looking for a new app now.Version: 3.0.1

Not updated for anything larger than an iPhone 8I loved this app on my previous iPhones - a 5s and then an 8. But having now upgraded to a 12 Pro, I’ve realised I cannot use the function I used the most, the ruler, as it is not calibrated for the bigger screen. From other reviews, it appears that updates do not seem to have been made to calibrate to the 11 either, which was a couple of years ago now... not exactly adaptable!.Version: 3.0.1

Where's the restI paid for 5 carpenter tools and got the plumb bob. WTF....Version: 2.2.3

Not worth itRuler is sooooo finicky it's useless. Other apps okay I suppose but not nearly as other ones out there that are cheap too..Version: 0

Stab....Je suis déçus de la stabilité des app lorsqu'on est fixe, ça bouge tout le temps. Peut-être qu'un upgrade futur réglera ce problème ..Version: 0

Very useful except for the ruleAll tools work well except for the ruler that cannot be calibrated. It seems the app has not been updated for the last 2 years, so a fix is well overdue!.Version: 3.0.1

Ruler is wrong size on iphone SE (2nd generation)Rulers 1” is actually 1 3/8” long … used to be a very accurate and helpful app for measuring smaller items. Pro tip: double click the home button to enable app switcher. Then the ruler is accurate again, but static, of course..Version: 3.0.1

ScozzyGorgeous to look at. Don't work with a wobbly protective shell. One could almost forgive the tools for being less than perfect, just for their looks alone but they work well. Unfortunately I need to protect the phone..Version: 2.0.5

Use to be good.This use to be good on the iPhone 4. Now I see that the ruler is totally off for the screen of the new iPhones. The other tools seem to work, but who knows. If they won’t keep up to date, why get this..Version: 2.2.4

Can come in handyI'm a carpenter, it's a great gimick to show onsite, when I use it for something practical I'll give you a shout LOL, maybe I'd use it to set out the plum cut on a traditional pitched roof, or check a window board LOL, but I won't be putting any door frames in with it, but I'm glad iv got it! Along with an endless list of tools, if you like tools get it !.Version: 0

Needs to be fixedLoved this app for the level functionality but the scale no longer will calibrate to the new iPhone..Version: 3.0.1

Used to be goodThis app hasn’t been updated for two years and it just doesn’t work like it used to. It seems…sticky…it’s just not what it used to be. If it isn’t updated in 2021 I’ll be looking for a new app or two with similar capabilities ..Version: 3.0.1

Ruler does not workUpgraded phone to iPhone 11pro and ruler just enlarges to screen size but is not accurate. Ie an inch is not an inch..Version: 3.0.1

Easy to useI love this app. But week after I got it's stop working!!!!!.Version: 2.0.4

Ruler should be the easy part…You would think if there are problems it would be with trying to use leveling or something but the ruler says my iPhone 12 mini is just a touch longer than 3 inches instead of 5.18 It was ihandy until that broke….Version: 3.0.1

Not bad but could be betterPotentially very useful app but let down I think by the need to calibrate itself using a level surface and a vertical wall. To check you have a level surface you need a spirit level which makes this a little redundant. If calibration method could be smarter like some other "level" apps this would definitely get 5 stars from me.Version: 0

RulerPortion of app is WAY OFF and has no way to calibrate or re-adjust. Don’t waste your money!!.Version: 2.2.4
