Anyone who's gone through a renovation knows how chaotic it can get. From endless trips to hardware stores and showrooms to juggling suppliers, contractors, and delivery timelines—it’s a whirlwind of small but crucial decisions. Having an interior designer doesn’t mean you’re off the hook, either. Everyone will be waiting for your decisions and preferences, and one thing is certain: you'll need to measure things—a lot.
Whether you're checking dimensions in a new home, sizing up furniture in a showroom, or imagining how a layout you saw online could fit into your own space, having an accurate measuring tool always at hand is a game-changer.
The Solution: A Tape Measure App That Lives in Your Pocket
The Solution: A Tape Measure App That Lives in Your Pocket
With Measure Tools – AR Ruler, you never have to remember to bring a tape measure again. Your phone becomes a smart, augmented reality (AR) ruler you can pull out anytime, anywhere.
Unlike traditional tape measures, which can be awkward (especially on dusty construction sites or in tight spaces), this app lets you measure quickly and comfortably just by pointing your phone’s camera. You don’t need to climb ladders or furniture, crawl into tight spaces, or move heavy items that stand in the way of your measurements.
Measure Tools – AR Ruler is not your average measurement app—it’s a pioneer in the digital measurement space. The camera-based measuring app was launched in 2018 after many years of computer vision experience by the development team at Craftars. Since then, over 900,000 people around the world have used it to measure rooms, preview furniture layouts, calculate distances, and make smarter decisions in construction, real estate, renovation, and interior design.
Whether you're a contractor on a job site, a homeowner redesigning your living room, or an agent showing a property, this AR-powered tool turns your smartphone into a complete space planning assistant.
Key Features
Key Features
- Instant measurements using your phone camera: Quickly measure distances, heights, or object sizes by simply pointing your camera—perfect for on-the-go measurements without needing a physical tape.
- 3D shapes to preview furniture or objects at true scale: Place realistic, full-scale objects as cubes in your space to see how furniture or appliances will actually fit and feel—before you buy.
- Smart modes: lock measurements horizontally or perpendicular to surfaces: Easily measure along the floor or walls with smart axis-locking—great for getting straight lines in cluttered or complex spaces.
- Chained measurements to calculate perimeters and areas: Connect multiple points in sequence to measure entire rooms, plan layouts, or calculate floor space and material needs. Works for complex shapes too, not just simple rectangular rooms.
- Scan floor layout even when obstacles are in the way: Measure the usable floor area accurately, even if furniture or other objects are blocking the view—no need to move anything around.
- Angles: Instantly measure the angle between two segments—useful for checking corners, slopes, or ensuring elements align correctly in your space.
Introducing: Real-Scale 3D Layout Previews
The newest feature in Measure Tools lets you go beyond measuring—now you can preview your entire room layout in 3D.
Instead of guessing whether that beautiful sofa will fit, you can place a virtual object with the exact size of your future purchase directly into your space. This allows you to visualize spacing, flow, and fit before you commit.
While some people try to simulate layouts by placing masking tape or painter’s tape on the floor, this method is time-consuming, messy, and imprecise. You have to measure each side manually, bend down repeatedly to apply tape, and if you want to shift the layout even slightly, you need to remove and redo everything. It leaves sticky residue on the floors and gives you only a flat, 2D outline.
With Measure Tools, you can stand comfortably, place and adjust virtual furniture in seconds, and get a true 3D sense of how the object fits in your space. A few taps replace an hour of crouching and guesswork.
Planning with Pinterest boards or product listings is helpful, but seeing your own space filled in AR is a completely different experience. You’ll immediately spot if something feels too big, too small, or simply wrong for the room. This means fewer mistakes, fewer returns, and less stress.
And if you're ordering custom furniture? Even more reason to be precise. A wrong fit could mean hundreds of dollars lost or weeks of delay for costly adjustments.
