Description
Protractor - smart instrument to measure angles. Turn on the camera mode and measure the angle of buildings, mountains, or any other object around you.
This app includes two free measuring modes: - Touch measure - touch the screen to set the angle (use camera view!). - Plumb bob measure - pendulum - use to determine the slope (remember to calibrate the plumb).
In each mode, you can switch to camera view and take measurements of all objects around you.
Additional Premium mode: Polygon measurement lets you draw any shape on your screen to check all its angles. Turn on the camera to see the real object through your phone and copy its shape. You can also pick a photo from your gallery or take a new picture to draw a shape on the image. In Premium mode, you can change colors, add helper lines, and switch between different angle units.
All modes allows you to make a screenshot of anything on the screen.
Enjoy !!!

Works as intended. The camera feature is very useful.

Really neat. The lock and photo features are handy. Plumb tool is also cool, although it briefly confused me until I found the toggle back to basic angle measurement. Adverts are subtle enough not to interfere. Thank you.

So far so good. I like the clear markings. The adds only show after I used the app which is not a problem. I would like to see an indication of which side is higher when I work with small inclinations.

Brilliant design. Also comes with a visual plumb bob. I love the way the camera can be used to view a room or object. The protractor outline overlays the camera image and can be used to measure angles, hang pictures, and predict location of wall studs.

This app makes no sense. In one mode you can only measure an angle against a horizontal line. Another option lets you use the camera and adjust 2 angle lines independently. "This means you snap a photo then accurately measure it" is what a sane person would think. Nope. You have a live video feed and have to adjust 2 angles live while aligning the fulcrum live while trying to hold the camera steady, live. So it's about as accurate guessing the angle, but slower and more frustrating.

Was expecting a protractor not a level. Very misleading
