ON Distance

ON DISTANCE is a powerful and advance distance measuring set for quick distance estimation and measurement. It performs non-contact distance measurement by using camera and hardware sensors of device. ON Distance combines the two most useful distance measuring modes in one app, which is Manual Distance and Auto Distance. Each measuring modes operate differently with a few significant features cater for your needs in different situation and occasion. It can also be used to measure object height and object length if you know the distance to the target object.ON Distance is very useful especially for outdoor and sport activities. For example, measure the distance from wall to wall, distance to the golf stick, distance to the archery target, distance from home plate to the pitcher mound, distance to a building, distance to your friend, distance to a boat, height of any object, etc.Mode 1: MANUAL DISTANCEManual Distance measure the distance to the target object with known length. You can also measure the length and dimension of target object if you know the distance to the object. For perfect accuracy, users are requested to do calibration only one time after the application is installed.Mode 2: AUTO DISTANCEAuto Distance measure the distance to the target object automatically by aim the cameras at the base of the object. It works in camera live view. Auto Measure uses the height of the camera lens and its tilt angle to calculate the distance to the object. You can continue measure the height of object by lock the distance and aim the cameras at the top of target object. The only parameter required in this mode is the lens height, which is the height of your camera height to the base plane.For more details information about how to use the app, please refer User Guide in this app. KEY FEATURES:
★ 2 Distance Measuring Modes: Manual Distance and Auto Distance
★ Select the best picture resolution automatically
★ Show verticality and tilt angle of device when camera is on.
★ Show vertical view angle and horizontal view angle of device.
★ Camera snapshot (Manual Distance)
★ Camera auto focus, flash-light (All modes)
★ 5X Scroll View (Manual Distance)
★ Distance Locking and Height measure (Auto Distance)
★ Lens Height scroll bar and manual input (Auto Distance)
★ Easy calibration (Only one time)
★ Customizable text size, line width, point size
★ Keep Screen Awake

★ 7 Measurement UnitsThis app lets you make measurement in different units: Millimeter(mm), Centimeter(cm), Meter(m), Kilometer(km), Inch(in), Yard(yd) and Feet(ft).


★ 5x Zoom ViewZoom View feature with 5x magnifier helps you align the points on object boundaries accurately. The Zoom View is located at the right bottom of the screen.


★ Save MeasurementIt lets you save your current measurement in Manual Distance mode including images, all the measurement data, unit and all information related.in a file located in SD card. You can open the measurement in future for review or continue edit.


★ Open measurementYou can open your previously saved measurements for review or continue edit.ACCURACY:The accuracy of this apps is highly depends on how well the user move the points to aligned with object boundaries when doing calibration or measuring. Please be noted that small error in calibration might causes large inaccurate in measurements. Accuracy also relies on the device sensor. From so many experiment we have done so far, the average accuracy of Manual Distance is falls between (+)(-)3% and accuracy for Auto Distance is between (+)(-)7.5%. Please use Auto Distance for quick distance estimation where accuracy is not critical. ON Distance is a free distance measuring tool on android. We hope that this app will bring convenience to you and save your time whenever you want to estimate a short distance.

Cool little app. This is a combo of the Auto and Manual Distance apps. A careful calibration is key to any app like these. It is nice to have both apps available to use in one single app.

Very accurate upon correct calibration! This app is just what I needed for a project that I am working on! Measures not only distance but height of the object you're looking at. Impressive! GOTRY6 PRODUCTIONS LLC

By far, the most accurate measurement tool I have ever found. Measuring heights and distances using trigonometry is very accurate and this app has brought that function to mobile devices.

This is a very good app. Don't uninstall it quickly. It may take you a while to understand it. This is really a fantastic app.

Amazing this is I needed in my everyday life in construction.

I just wish I have found this app when it first came out.

It's total Bakwaas

Ran. W. Aug 16, 2018     

Could only find metric distances. American here. Wasn't looking for another project. Have no interest in the metric system and settings wouldn't allow conversion to inches, feet, yards, etc. Which should be standard on an American website!

It helps me

A. G. u. Nov 8, 2016     

All those complaining about this app's inaccuracy probably made some mistake during the calibration process. You need to follow the steps carefully, place the phone on a flat surface, and use the zoom window to precisely align the measurement marks during calibration. It takes some effort, but is a 1-time process. The only problem I found with this well-made app is that the menu button is available only in "Auto Mode", which makes it confusing to access the manual for new users.

If you can compensate the tilt of the object relative to the camera, it would be a perfect 5 star. The reference (2D object) could be the same with on 3D-Measurement: a rectangular object, or a circular object to let you calculate the tilt.

Need to be able to see measures in feet and inches

Easy to use, and accurate.

Not accurate at all

Bal. D. Jul 10, 2015     

Love it

Ron. d. L. Aug 10, 2014     

but it's a bit too fancy looking to my liking, which complicates and kills the interface for me...

Kim. H. Aug 16, 2014     

This App is great.

Ric. H. Mar 30, 2015     

GREAT APP IS REALLY CLOSE MOST OF THE TIME...... WOULD RECOMMEND TO OTHERS....

Hea. P. Jul 18, 2014     

Amazing how accurate this app is!

Best app to keep busy

Lat. S. May 24, 2014     

Its amazon and accurate

Joe. R. Jan 3, 2014     

I'm pleased with both modes. My only wish is that I could set multiple height presets for auto mode (maybe I'm standing sometimes and sitting other times, or maybe someone shorter than me is using my phone). But I don't think this is a big enough issue to dock the app any stars.

Not used to metric

Its very bad! Measures 30cm to 97cm :(((
