Distance Calculator v1.8
Requirements: 2.1 +
Overview: Turn your phone into a distance calculator or measurement tool.



Measure distance using:-
1) Screen (for small size object)
2) Camera (for short distance)
3) GPS (for long distance)

A) How to measure using Screen:-
1. Put the object on your phone's screen
2. Drag the button on your right to start measurement

B) How to measure distance using Camera:-
1. Hold up your phone in Landscape orientation and estimate the phone's distance from ground.
2. Then aim the camera (hair-cross) at the object which you want to calculate the distance.
3. The target should be at same ground level from where you're standing. If not, you need to do some adjustment.
4. You must aim at the BOTTOM of the object. (Eg: If a building, aim at the bottom of the building. If people, aim at the feet. If a car, aim at the tire)
5. ROTATE the phone when you try to aim the target. DO NOT move the phone UP/DOWN from the phone's height which you have specified earlier.
6. Tap the screen to stop the calculation or re-tap to continue.

C) How to measure distance using GPS/Network:-
1. Get the coordinates when you are at Location A.
2. Then move/walk/drive to Location B and get the second coordinates.
3. When you have the coordinates for both locations, the app will auto calculate the distance.

Weakness:-
1. This app has not been tested on ALL android devices.
2. Accuracy will depend on sensor, resolution, gps, network connection or the way you hold the camera. It's suitable for quick estimator.
