I’m a contractor building a house. Should I throw away my tape measure and just use AccelaRuler? Mmmm…no. But you could certainly use AccelaRuler as a convenient way to get length and measurement estimates of any number of things around the job site.

Note that AccelaRuler is design to estimate distances while sliding on flat surfaces. It will not work well carried in your hand.
