Discover PhrulerWhat is Phruler?
Phruler is an augmented reality (AR) measuring application for iOS. Its core function is to allow users to measure distances in the real world by moving their device. It uses ARKit to track the device's displacement and calculates distances based on that movement.
Beyond basic measurement, Phruler offers a rich set of features designed to make measuring intuitive, engaging, and even playful.

Measure in 3D (total displacement), horizontally, or vertically to suit any task.
Dynamic Feedback
Receive greetings, contextual comments, and fun facts related to your measurements. Choose different app "personalities" for varied tones!
Challenge Mode
Test your skills with measurement tasks, like finding specific lengths or guessing object sizes based on fun facts.
Measurement History
Save, review, and annotate your past measurements with names, notes, and photos.
Statistics
Track your total distance measured, longest measurements, and other usage stats.
Deep Customization

A Glimpse of the Interface
Phruler presents a modern, AR-centric interface with clear visual feedback and intuitive controls. The main screen layers the live camera feed (or custom backgrounds) with optional AR ruler lines and informative UI elements.
Measurement Display: Shows the current value (e.g., "1.52 m") and measurement type. Animates during active measurement.
Dynamic Messages: Fun facts, comments, or challenge info appear in a sleek, adaptive message box.
Intuitive Controls: Large, clear buttons for starting/stopping measurements in different modes.
Navigation: Easy access to Help, Flashlight, Settings, Customizations, Challenges, and History.
The entire UI can rotate with your device, ensuring a comfortable experience in any orientation. The use of blur, gradients, and animations contributes to a polished and responsive feel.
