Great, simple tool
I use this app weekly to determine tops of cells and required altitude to clear a buildup or cloud bank. It does require correlation between radar/stormscope info for best accuracy. NEXRAD works in a pinch.

I haven’t found this useful at all. No clear instructions on how to calibrate or where to put the lines.
This app is difficult to close. Locked up my I pad during flight. Had to reboot and bring ForeFlight back up. Not a good problem to try to solve while in flight. Had to hand my iPad to passenger to solve the problem. I should have practiced first and I would have know not to use this app while in flight.
I deleted it immediately, and wish I could get my money back. Two big problems: 1) once the app is opened and you grant camera access, you can’t swipe up and kill it or switch apps. I had to force reboot my phone to get back to the app switcher. 2) it requires you to know the distance to the cloud you’re measuring “using RADAR”. Like I have that?!
Not very accurate. A small error in angle is a quite large when looking at a cloud which is miles away. This app consistently indicates I will fly into a cloud when in reality I clear it by seventy hundred feet.
Works well as a better refined guesstimator than the naked eye. It would be great if the artificial horizon had an option to always display at 0* and move on the screen relative to the phones actual angle... would be great for measuring in light chop.
Camera functions work, but you can't enter distance to get height. 99 cents down the drain. Worthless don't buy.
It works as advertised. I checked it against TCAS traffic and the altitude was spot on.
Great little tool. Lots of other uses too
Like cloud topper but how would one know the miles to the cloud?
