Report an issueA ruler is a simple tool — modest yet necessary, needed by everybody now and then.
“Ruler” is the ruler reinvented for a world where we all want to use less to do more, wherever, whenever.
While conventional rulers involve mentally discerning measurements from small markings, using Ruler is just a matter of dragging the pointer: Precise, fully formatted measurements appear instantly. It makes wooden rulers feel so… analog.
INCLUDES:
• Pointer with digital readout. Line it up & get a precise measurement, instantly. Displays fractions for inches, decimals for centimeters. • Extending action. Just swipe. Measuring tape without the bulge in your pocket. • Visual “How To” for measuring objects larger than your device. • LED scrap paper. Save measurements. See what you measured and when. • One-tap conversion between US & metric systems — even for past measurements. • Copy & paste values into other apps like Calculator and Mail.
With a fun and tactile design, Ruler’s like a toy for adults and kids alike. Math homework just got easier.
Environmentally friendly, sustainable. Made with 100% recycled binary. Free minute-or-under shipping to your home in the global village.

“Ruler 2: As Good as an iPhone Ruler Can Get” -Gizmodo
“Despite technological leaps and bounds in nearly all aspects of our lives over the last century, today’s typical ruler is virtually the same as it was 100 years ago. But if app developers Andrew and Alexa Kaz have their way, the stubbornly analog ruler may become a thing of the past.” -Macworld

8 of 25A nice app except... The start & end marks should be clearer. An actual red line (as it shows in the demo) would make a huge difference!
This is an awesome app and worked great for me
This app is complete crap!!!!!!!! What a waste of money. DO NOT PURCHASE
If it is more than a couple inches in length don't even try just go get a real ruler. Very disappointing App.
Dont waste your money, this app is worthless!
Not useful at all. Good reviews must be from family and friends. Don't waste your $.
The numbers on the pointer is a garbled character set which makes the app useless. The Developer Website does not exist anymore and no way to contact them. I wanted a simple ruler without ads, but this isn't the one to get. Buyer Beware!
Thanks Devs! You've really made something special here. This totally proves that it's not all about completely original ideas, but about taking an existing one and doing it right!
