Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate is the AR Tape Measure?
The AR Tape Measure uses Apple's ARKit technology and is generally accurate to within 1-2% for distances up to a few meters. Accuracy improves with good lighting and textured surfaces. For critical measurements, always verify with a physical tape measure.
Which tools are free?
Tape Measure, Level, Flashlight, and Compass are completely free. All other tools and the Projects feature require a Pro subscription.
Does Handy work without an internet connection?
Yes! All tools work completely offline. Your data is stored locally on your device. An internet connection is only needed for initial subscription purchase or restore.
Why does Handy need camera and sensor permissions?
The camera is used for AR measurements and Color Finder. Motion sensors power the Level, Compass, Plumb Bob, and Angle Finder. The microphone is optional, used only for the Noise Meter. All data stays on your device.
