The most unexpected everyday tool can be found on your phone
If you have an iPhone, that is.
AI Summary
Apple’s iPhone includes a built‑in measurement app that uses the device’s camera—and LiDAR on Pro models—to gauge distances, offering a digital alternative to a traditional tape measure. The tool was introduced in 2018 but has received little promotion, remaining tucked away in the Utilities folder. As a result, many users are unaware of its existence despite its practical functionality.
