Why do these bubble apps require a perfectly level surface to calibrate? I should be able to 1) calibrate. 2) turn phone 180 degrees, same side down. 3) calibrate. 4) The bubble app uses those two readings to determine the angle of the surface and calibrate the phone! There was an app called 'Clinometer' that did that beautifully. Sadly it no longer works on my phone. I am going to post this review on the other bubble level apps that I have tried hoping to motivate the devs to 'fix' their app.

I have 70+ year old eyes and absolutely love the maximum use of space to display the bubble and spirit level gauges. They are easily seen even at some distance. I would have given this a 5 star rating if it weren't for the digital angle degree panels. They could be larger and the "shadow" makes it more difficult to read than neccessary. There is plenty of room for larger high contrast simple digital displays. After all this is being used as a tool, not a piece of design art.

Not sure if there are better ones out there, but this is exactly what I needed and was thinking of when I looked for one on the play store, grabbed it because of the higher rating but seems to actually hold up to it's stars!! It changes between the different styles fluidly for whichever way you hold your phone depending on what your trying to level which makes it super easy to get a few different readings back to back without having to stop and push any buttons or mess with the settings each ti
