GPS Tape Measure

GPS Tape Measure is a straightforward Android app designed to estimate straight-line distances between two points using GPS technology. Simply mark a point, move to the second location, and view the approximate distance. It's best suited for outdoor uses like measuring the distance of a golf swing or setting shooting targets. However, it's important to note that it isn't designed for precise indoor measurements or measuring curved paths, as its accuracy can vary by several meters in even the best conditions.

Limitations and Ideal Use Cases

While GPS Tape Measure provides a convenient way to estimate distances, it is not suitable for small-scale measurements, like determining the length of a vehicle or an arm. Furthermore, it functions differently from an odometer as it calculates displacement rather than the total distance traveled.

Available Measurement Units

You have the option to view measurements in several units, including metric (kilometers and meters) or imperial (miles, feet, and yards), which adds versatility to your distance estimation tasks. GPS Tape Measure is an invaluable tool for those seeking quick, generalized distance measurements in various outdoor contexts.
