How to Use the MEASURE APP on iPhone
In this video, I wanted to show you how to use the new Measure app in iOS 12. So if you've updated it to iOS 12, the measure app should automatically be installed. If you haven't updated, make sure you get the iOS 12 updates to get the measure app. So let's launch the measure app and I'll show you a couple of things in there.
So usually for the very first time, when you open the app, it's going to ask you to start moving your iPhone around. So I'm just going to move my iPhone left to right here and then he should calibrate. So now it's ready to measure. So just to show you a couple of things with the app on the very bottom, there's a measurement tool and there is a level tool.
So I'll show you the measure tool first, and then we'll jump into the level tool. So again, usually every time you come to the measure tool, you have to move your iPhone usually left to right. Should do it that much. In this case, you told me to slow down. So I'm going to just go ahead and pan. Left to, right.
So now I'm ready to measure. So I'm going to pull up my phone here and I basically want to start by adding a point. So let's say I want it to measure the screen. I could go ahead and go to this corner and then I have to press the plus sign. So if I press plus he starts and then I could start moving my phone.
To measure. So I'll go all the way to this corner and then when I get here, I'm going to press plus one more time and now I have that measurement here is going to stay here just like that and I could always go to this point, press plus again, to start a new measurement and then go down here and then I could let go on this corner and press plus one more time.
So now I got this measurement here and the one I measured here is already there. To clear a measurement. You just have to press clear right on top, but there's another cool thing here. If you choose a rectangle or any shape, like a square shape and you hold the phone over it, it should recognize it. So it's saying add a rectangle.
So I'm going to press the plus sign and it's going to give me the dimensions of the shape because I pointed the phone there. So if I wanted to clear this, now, all I have to do is press the clear on top and it goes away and that's all there is to know about the measure app. So if I go to the level of, now, this allows you to measure, if something is level, I'm going to go ahead and put it on my desk here and when you hit zero degrees, that means this level is going to turn green. So usually you could use this to measure, picture frames or anything else that you want to make sure it's level. All you gotta do is put a vertical or horizontal on there. And the moment it turns green, that means you got a level.
So that's how you use the measure tool and the level tool inside the measure app. I hope you found this useful. Please give this video a thumbs up and subscribe to this channel. For easy to follow tech tutorials, just like this one and I'll see you on the next video. Thanks so much for watching.
