Trussly AR camera measurement feature: use your iPhone camera to measure distances via ARKit. Shows feet, inches, decimal, and metric simultaneously. Send the value into a calculator field. Part of Trussly, a $29.99 iOS app by Creayo LLC.

Your tape's in the truck. Your phone isn't.

Trussly's AR measurement lets you point your camera at a wall, a window, a beam, tap two endpoints, and get a distance. Feet, inches, decimal, metric. All at once. Then feed that number right into whatever calculator you're using.

AR camera measurement showing distance in feet, inches, decimal, and metric

Point. Tap. Measure.

Open the camera tool, aim at a surface, and tap your start and end points. Trussly uses ARKit to calculate the distance. You'll see the measurement in four formats simultaneously so you don't have to convert anything in your head.

A "Use This Measurement" button sits right below the result. Tap it, and the number drops into whatever input field you came from. No retyping.

Good for rough numbers

AR measurement on a phone is approximate. Lighting, surface texture, distance, and the device all affect it, and it can be off by inches. Use it for rough estimates and planning, then confirm with a tape or laser before you cut or order.

It won't replace your tape for framing or finish work. But when you're standing in the supply house trying to remember how wide that opening was, it's a lot better than guessing.

Feeds into any calculator

The measurement tool sends values straight into calculator fields. Measure a room's width, send it to the paint calculator. Measure a wall section, send it to the drywall calculator. You don't write the number down or try to remember it. The data flows from camera to calculator in two taps.
