The tape measure features three modes: air, surface and points.
Additional modes include Point&Shoot mode to capture dynamic measurements. This mode’s corrective functionality helps users capture accurate measurements. Surface Mode can be used to measure along horizontal plans. AirMode is designed for using the phone like a traditional tape measure where the ruler is physically moving with the device.
