Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down).

About Flying Ruler: 3D Tape Measure
The Flying Ruler app allows you to measure in the most original way: by just moving your device from one point to another.
Flying Ruler is a ruler, tape measure, rangefinder, protractor and a 3D angle finder. It is five devices in one app, providing you with the quickest way to measure a distance or an angle.
The secret of the program is that it is based on the principles of the inertial navigational system (INS): the position of the device is determined with the help of the accelerometer and the gyroscope.
Measurements take place extremely quickly and at the same time they are quite accurate. We are constantly improving our computational algorithm for more than 11 years!
To try this technology for free you can install the app "Digital Angle Finder: 3D Meter". This free app measures the angle as you move the device.

PRESS ABOUT US:
"I was impressed with Flying Ruler’s accuracy. It works quickly and effectively", "It’s the perfect addition to anyone’s app collection" — 148apps 4.5 / 5 (MUST HAVE)
"This thing is awesome" — brettterpstra.com
"I literally said “wow!” when I first used this app and I think it’s a truly impressive marvel of mobile technology", "The Flying Ruler Rules" — AppPicker (Cons: there is nothing negative to say about this app)
*** Measure distance with good precision, no matter the lighting or conditions ***
The app has different modes so you can choose which mode is better and easier to use on each occasion. You can measure with the body of the device in one mode or with a virtual tape measure in another. You can not only measure an object but also the distance between two walls (rangefinder mode). You use the same methods to measure angles as the app allows you to measure angles both on a surface area (protractor mode) and between surfaces through space (3D angle finder mode).
You can choose either inches or centimeters. The maximum distance is only limited by the value of the indicator which consists of 999 ft for the imperial system and 99 m for the metric system.
When measuring, you can avoid obstacles and therefore you can measure anything.
Flying Ruler is suitable for measuring not only large, but also very small distances with the accuracy of a standard ruler.
The app also allows you to save a measurement by taking a photograph of the measurement and mark the place that was measured.
Don’t forget to show your friends and colleagues how the app works – believe us, they will be impressed.
ACCURACY OF MEASUREMENT:
We took 100 consecutive measurements and got these results:
On iPhone 13:
• Mean squared error - 0.14%
• Maximum inaccuracy - 0.4%
On iPhone 7:
• Mean squared error - 0.15%
• Maximum inaccuracy - 0.4%
On iPhone 6s:
• Mean squared error - 0.28%
• Maximum inaccuracy - 1.1%
The accuracy of measurements depends on the device, however the error rarely exceeds 1.5%. You can always increase accuracy by making a series
