Is it time to say goodbye to the stadiometer? I can’t predict, but everything is possible with technology at this moment. A decade ago, no one had ever thought a mobile handset could measure our heights. The possibility is peeking at us in the form of iPhones and iPads.
However, do you want to know how to measure height on your iPhone and iPad? Do you want to measure your height using your iPhone and iPad? Then, hold back, presenting the first height measurement app, the Measure app.
Measure app uses a LiDAR scanner to measure anything. LiDAR stands for Light Detection and Ranging. The sensor can measure any object and greatly helps while taking portrait pictures with the bokeh effect.
However, not all iPhones and iPads are compatible with the measure app.
Here is the list of supported devices for the LiDAR Scanner:
- iPhone 12 Pro
- iPhone 12 Pro Max
- iPhone 13 Pro
- iPhone 13 Pro Max
- iPad Pro 12.9 inch (4th Gen & later)
- iPad Pro 11 inch (2nd Gen & later)
How to Measure Someone’s Height with iPhone and iPad
Measuring someone’s height on the iPhone is not a troublesome thing to do. Within a few clicks, you can measure the height of the next person.
Follow these simple steps:
- Open the Measure application on your compatible iPhones or iPads.
- Now, bring the person in front of the camera whose height you want to measure. (The person should stand in front of the camera from foot to head; a little movement can make the process difficult. Make sure the person stands in a good-lighting area.)
- When everything is ready, a line will appear on the head after a while.
- Now you can take this photo; just tap on the photo.
- Otherwise, you may take a screenshot.
- Move the phone away from the person so that your iPhone can reset the person’s measurement and allow you to measure another person’s height.
Now you can see the photo whenever you want. You can even send this photo, which will ask for your height.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can your iPhone tell you your height?
Yes, the iPhone can tell you your height within a minute. All you have to do is open the Measure application and stand still in front of the camera. After a while, your iPhone will show the height of your head.
Which iPhone and iPad support the measure application?
The measure app works on Lidar Scanners through augmented reality. That is why not all iPhones and iPads are compatible with it. It works on the iPhone 12 Pro and above model and the iPad Pro 11 inch and above.
Does the measured height on iPhone accurate?
Yes, it shows 99.99% accurate height. We have checked everything manually. The combination of the Lidar scanner and AR shows our perfect height. But follow the traditional method if you submit your height for an important event.
Final Words
The growth of technology makes our lives easier in everything. Today, we can measure our height with the iPhone; tomorrow, we can do anything else.
