## Distance Measure Description
This app lets you measure the point-to-point (great-circle) distance between two or more waypoints on a map or measure the surface area defined by a polygon having three or more points as its corners.
It uses online maps so it needs an internet connection.

Tap and hold to set a new waypoint, tap the options icon to read the manual or to open the settings view to change the map type or the measuring unit. You can choose between (kilo)meters, feet/yards/miles and nautical miles. The options menu also lets you choose to go to the Save/Restore view.

Tap the calculated measurement at the bottom of the map to switch between feet/yards/miles or meters/hectometers/kilometers.

## Distance Measure Reviews in Australia

### *---- "Opening"
The app is a good tool if you can open it. It normally will take over a dozen attempts before it opens   The measuring is accurate enough if you can into the app. The use of the stupid nickname is also a put off for this app obviously written by a fool
-- vhytribcvn, 2021-11-13

### ****- "Simple and does what I need"
It’s not to over the top great for area mapping and also point to point distance which are the two reasons I need it for. I enjoy mapping and navigation and surveying and this is a handy little app
-- Bornepatrol, 2019-10-17

### ***** "Adds ffs"
It could be perfect. I just hate the adds at the top of the screen. Wrecks the app.
-- braddles78, 2019-09-13

### ****- "Happy"
Perfect for my needs: it’s straight fwd, (forgiving), accurate & effective. Storage feature is handy too
-- killick ken, 2018-08-01

### *---- "Only displaying meters not kilometres for metric"
It seems the developer has given up in this app. Been using this for about five years. For some reason it now shows metric distance in metres only and NOT kilometres (previously it was in kilometres. This means 300 kilometres is now shown as 300,000 meters.
-- Noodles AU, 2017-12-16

### ****- "Kayaking"
I use this app to plan new routs to kayak, awsome app I use it all the time. I cannot seem to get the names of locations displayed in the app?
-- Klipkop777, 2017-06-02

### ***** "Perfect"
Great app, has everything you need
-- Vgccfbddff, 2017-04-12

### ****- "Great APP"
works well easy to use area calc in hectares would be good
-- Dunnpd, 2016-08-31

### ***** "Awesome app for measuring distances on water"
As a boatie, I'm often interested in measuring distances between harbors, bays and the like. This app provides that capability.
-- Kieran12311, 2016-04-20

### ****- "Terrific handy app"
I don't use it that often but it has proved very helpful and ideal for the distance and area measurement. Easy to use although I would like the areas to be measured as hectares.
-- Jackwin27, 2016-02-26

### ***** "Can't fault it"
Measures distance just like it says it does. Works well.
-- Aussie_MuTT, 2015-07-06

### ***-- "Very Good little App"
Great for calculating distances along streets and working out the size of a block, field or other geographical area.
-- John761, 2015-04-22

### ***** "Great app"
Great app for measuring kayaking distance:)
-- Alsax10, 2015-01-31

### **--- "Distmeasure"
OK on urban areas but limited use outside towns without satellite view option to permit accurate waypoint positioning
-- Siahn Dhu, 2014-09-07

### ***** "Awesome"
Does everything it promises, as a pilot I use it to gauge rough distances of my flights before planning so the ability to have multiple waypoints and change units to nautical is very helpful.
-- iwillmurderappleiftheydontfix, 2014-07-02

### ***-- "Was better before upgrade"
Handy app, reasonably accurate, would be improved by having a choice of which units of measurement it displays info in. Also find I can't zoom the maps close enough but it is very good for working out property size and measuring areas to work out where we want to put fences. 
**unusable since latest upgrade due to a new satellite view of maps having cloud cover over our property. PLEASE CHANGE YOUR MAPS TO A VIEW WITH NO CLOUD!!
-- Sallyh1, 2014-02-03

### ***** "5 Star App"
I use this for measuring sporting grounds. Best coaching aid I have.
-- Hoorayfa, 2014-01-08

### ***** "Great app"
Does the job and easy to use. Cannot ask for more. Well done.
-- Sequoyah5, 2014-01-06

### ***** "Very useful"
+1
-- The super cat, 2013-09-11

### ***** "Great app"
Simple & easy to use, map functionality & clarity is great
-- Carty1966, 2013-09-05
