Description
***Featured on http://gizmodo.com/5562674/***
Both a screen ruler and camera rulers. Support both metrics and US unit. It can find out an object distance, height and the object size using the phone camera. Just turn on the camera ruler, stand up, aim and get the result instantly.
Supports both phones and tablets.
FAQ:
1. Internet access is for crash report and flurry tracking.
2. Orientation: It always works in landscape orientation in all camera rulers because there is a bug on android early versions that the camera preview doesn't work in portrait orientation

Using the ruler is a little awkward, but it works.The fact that the hight/distance feature works at all is impressive,more accurate than I thought.

Very clever app and quite accurate too.

Does what it says. Phone identity is likely used to allow the ruler to zero at the end of the phone instead of the screen edge, useful feature.

Froyo has been out for awhile now please make the app installable to the SD. Also still not sure why the app needs access to my phone identity.
