How to measure things using the iOS 12 Measure app:

  1. Open the Measure app on iOS 12.
  2. Point the camera at the object you want to measure. Whether it’s a small box or the entire room, the Measure app performs equally reliably.
  3. Now a big Plus button will appear on the screen, along with a Circle that has a dot in the middle. Point the dot at the starting point you want to measure, then hit the Plus button.
  4. Now point the dot at the end point and hit the Plus button. This will show you the distance between those two points on screen.
  5. Sometimes when you point the camera at rectangular objects, you will see an Add object button. Tap that to see the length and breadth of the object.
  6. There are four buttons on the screen in the Measure app. The top-left button allows you to undo a measurement, the top-right Clear button allows you to reset all measurements, the bottom-right Photo button allows you to take a picture of the measurement, and the big Plus button adds points of measurement.
