About this app

Perform accurate measurements of all types of fields and terrains, as well as playgrounds or road lengths. The GPS receiver of your device is used to measure the distance, and the accuracy of the measurement depends on the quality of signal reception, but also on the weather conditions. In good measuring conditions, the accuracy is about 1 meter, so it is convenient to measure distances greater than 10 meters.

The measurement starts by pressing the Start button and ends by pressing the Stop button. Each time you press the start button, the distance meter will load the current location as a new starting point, while the previous measurement will forget. In order to be able to use the distance meter worldwide, almost all units of measurement (m, ft, yd, Km, Mi ...) are supported.

You can also save all your starting points from which you started the measurement, to later see the distance from that point wherever you are. The distance meter will also save all your coordinates, which you can later load or share with others. In the upper part of the distance meter, you can find important data such as current GPS accuracy, and altitude.

Ratings and reviews

Pretty poor. Was a great app where you could click on a position to set your data point, then go anywhere and see the distance to that point. I used it on a golf driving range to be able to determine distance to a single hole from multiple locations (10 - 100m range). Then it was changed. Clunky, no instructions, difficult to reuse a saved location. Disappointing!

Useless. I just spent all morning measuring my property boundary and saving the measurements to refer to later. When I opened my saved measurements again, the distance from start point to end point is not saved. Instead the distance from your current location to the start point is given. This is useless information. For a mile marker app not to save the distance travelled is a fundamental flaw.

Not a "measure wheel". Such a device (AKA trundle wheel), measures distance traveled, like an odometer. This app just measures your straight-line distance from your starting point. The displayed distance goes back down to zero as you return to the starting point. One star for misrepresentation. Not what I was looking for. Uninstalling.
