Very accurate
Down to the decimal accuracy. Just point it at a wall and get the distance. Once it is calibrated right it is very accurate!

Description
Sonar Ruler is a winner in the Best App Ever Awards - "Most innovative use of iPhone hardware" category!
The Amazing New Sonar Ruler is an experimental app that uses echoes to measure distances with your iPhone!
* It uses the same principles that dolphins use to find food! *
It sends a short pulse from the speaker and measures how long that pulse takes to bounce off of something and return to the phone. It then estimates how far away you are.
>> Impress your friends with what this unique app can accomplish using only an iphone! <<
Ϟ GIZMODO.com:
"that's a damned neat trick for a phone to be able to do."
Features:
* Sonic distance measurement up to 60 feet
* Set Units to feet, inches, or meters
* Custom saved settings for measuring in different environments
If you're a teacher, this app is a great way to teach students the principles of sonar, and how sound propagates through air.
** Watch a demo video here: http://bit.ly/sonarvideo
** German/Japanese subtitles here: http://bit.ly/sonarvid
Enjoy!

*This is an experimental app, although it can be quite accurate, any measurements taken should be verified before using them.
Note: Use with iPads requires some adjustment to the chirp boundaries

Sonar Ruler Reviews
Crash within 3 seconds
Tried uninstalling and reinstalling on my iPhone 6 several times but the program exits after 3 seconds every time. Would have been interested to "experiment".
Won't Open on iPhone 6
Bought in October 2016. Will not open on iPhone 6 running 10.0.2. Contacted developer but no response! Want my money back.
Saudi Arabia
Sonar Ruler The program does not open and close the same
Doesn’t work on iPhone 5 with latest system
after updating the system it does not work at all, it never worked well, but now it doesn’t work at all
Defunct
Checked in on this once-cool app. Crashed the whole phone, forcing a hard restart.
Don't buy
Waste of time and money just shuts off immediately after opening app
broken
Used to work great, but it no longer works on the newer iPhones running iOS 8.4. It runs and seems to be listening, but it no longer makes the chirps it needs to listen for. None of the adjustments seem to make a difference. I tried setting back to default values. Tried removing and reinstalling. Tried rebooting the iPhone.
Broken!
Used to work fine, now no chirping sound is emitted at all on an iPhone 5S. Help video URL is broken. Any one else gotten it to work recently?
Does not work
I tried but it does not work.
