1. A job-site workflow that fits one visit.
- Start a project for the job. Add the customer and the job-site or billing details if you want them on the report.
- Measure each room with the phone camera, or type sizes into a template.
- Measure the stairs in stairs mode.
- Mark doors, open doorways and transitions. Add holes for islands and hearths.
- Take up to eight photos of each room.
- Review the numbers, check key walls with your tape and send the branded PDF.
Measure includes unlimited projects, so every job gets its own. Each project holds up to 15 areas, where an area is a room or a staircase, and each area keeps up to 5 saved measurements, including retakes.
2. Measure rooms, holes and borders.
Tap the room’s corners in order with the camera and close the outline to get wall lengths, floor area and perimeter. Choose Keep as measured, or Auto-adjust to square up corners that are close to square. Templates cover rectangles, circles, ovals, donuts and triangles. Work in feet or meters, with area in square feet or square meters.
A hole (no flooring) takes an island or hearth off the quantities; a 5 ft × 2 ft hearth comes off as 10 sq ft. Holes count in the totals but have no position, so they are not drawn. A border width separates a border area from the field.
WORKED EXAMPLE · BORDER AROUND A RECTANGULAR ROOM
- Room
- 14 ft × 12 ft = 168 sq ft
- Field inside a 1 ft border
- (14 − 2) × (12 − 2) = 12 × 10 = 120 sq ft
- Border
- 168 − 120 = 48 sq ft
3. Measure stairs and mark transitions.
In stairs mode, pick the step types (rectangular, pie, starter, floating and landing), then measure one width, depth and riser height for each size group with the phone, or type them in. Each landing is measured separately. Stair drawings are schematics, so rely on the numbers rather than the picture. See how to measure stairs for carpet.
Mark every Door, Window, Open doorway and Transition. Transitions show where one floor ends and the next begins, which is one of the first things an installer asks about on a multi-room job.
4. Send a report with your logo.
Add your logo and company details, then attach customer, job-site and billing details to each job as needed. The PDF report puts one room on each page with its drawing and measurements, plus up to eight photos per room. Share it or email it straight from the phone.
For the office, export a CSV spreadsheet of the measurements, an SVG or DXF drawing for CAD, a PNG or JPG picture or a print-to-scale PDF. Put rooms together in the Floor Planner, and fix a wall or corner in the Room Editor after you check it with a tape. See a sample branded report.
5. What it does not replace.
- Your final check. Confirm key sizes with a tape or laser before ordering material or cutting. No accuracy figure is promised.
- The cut plan and seam layout. Roll widths, seam placement, pile direction, pattern match and carton counts are still the installer’s call.
- Your quoting tool. I Measure Pro gives measured areas, wall lengths and perimeter. It does not price jobs, add labor or produce an estimate.
The app needs an ARCore-supported Android phone with Google Play Services for AR and the camera permission. The interface and reports are in English.
6. One plan, priced per license.
There is one plan, Measure, at US$10.99 per month per license, for personal or business use. Each person who measures uses their own license. It includes unlimited projects, branded reports, stairs, templates, holes and borders, the Floor Planner, Room Editor, 3D Studio, print to scale and every export.
WORKED EXAMPLE · MONTHLY COST
- One estimator
- 1 × $10.99 = $10.99 per month
- Three people measuring
- 3 × $10.99 = $32.97 per month

Check that your phone is supported, then measure one room you know well and compare the walls with your tape. You will learn how capture works before you rely on it in a customer’s home.
