the built-in level tool is something I didn't expect to love but I really do. like having a spirit level right in your phone is just convenient, especially when you're hanging shelves and your actual level is buried under a pile of stuff. the angle measurement tool is also there which I haven't used as much but it seems solid.
the photo capture thing (I think they call it BuildSnap) is a nice idea too... you can snap a picture of a problem area and tag it as an issue or something to buy. tbh I haven't used that feature as much as I probably should.
where it falls down a bit for me is the materials calculator — honestly I found it a little confusing at first and had to poke around to figure out what it was asking for. not a dealbreaker but it could be a bit more intuitive. also the delete button on tasks is really close to the edit button and I accidentally deleted something once which was annoying...
overall though I'd say it's a genuinely handy app for anyone doing home reno work. does what it says on the tin.
