Measure

Measure helps you with quick, everyday measurements around the house or office — similar to a tape measure. With the Measure app, you can:
– Measure the length and height of objects in the real world ​like​ the size of a rug, the width of a cabinet, or the height of a table
– Switch between imperial and metric units
– Save photos of your measurements for later

Move your phone around the space to find flat surfaces such as tabletops or the floor. Then drag a length tool or height tool into the scene, and adjust it to the right size. Tap the camera icon to snap a photo for later, or tap the trash icon to start a new measurement.  It does take a bit of time to get used to, but once you get the hang of it, it is really great!

Measurements taken with this app are estimates, but very good ones!

Driving Detective

We all know that it is dangerous to talk or text while driving. But invariably when the phone rings or beeps, there is a tendency to pick it up or view the notification while driving.  That is dangerous!

Driving Detective automagically detects when you are in a moving vehicle and toggles Do Not Disturb on, silencing alerts for the duration of the drive. Normal operation is restored after you exit the vehicle and move away from it. Do Not Disturb is an Android feature which gives the user control over alerts, specifically which alerts are allowed to notify the user and when.

Driving Detective does not use any GPS data to detect driving. Detection is done completely on device. Detection stops either by walking a short distance away from the car, or remaining parked for more than 15 minutes.

Drive Safe – always use driving detective!

Pomodoro Timer

The Pomodoro Technique® is a popular time management method developed in the late 80’s. It’s really simple. You break down your work into 25 minute intervals separated by short breaks. These intervals are named pomodoros, the plural in English of the Italian word pomodoro (tomato), after the tomato-shaped kitchen timer that Cirillo (the originator of this technique) used as a university student. The technique has been scientifically proven to improve your productivity and aid assimilation.  

And this app helps you do just that.  Just pick a task you need to accomplish and set a timer for 25 minutes and start working.  When the timer rings, take a 3-5 minute break. And, every fourth break should be long (15-25 minutes).

The lite version is free and helps you with one task at a time while the Pro (paid) version helps you with multiple tasks, history and many more features.
