Fairly accurate, but can be difficult in selfie mode. Luckily, able to use a friend and rear camera to make a bit easier. Since the selfie flips for alignment, can be harder to get the card straight and flat on subsequent tries. Kind of important since the card is used for the basis of the measurements. Getting the card straight and flat in the picture, as well as keeping your eyes open as wide as possible (think old Dracula movies) will improve accuracy since you control the outcome.

The measurement was consistent with previous measurements using other methods. It allows you to manually adjust everything, so if it doesn't detect your pupils correctly, you can fix it. I couldn't hold the phone and activate the shutter at the same time with one hand, but there was a 5-second timer button that solved that problem.

Incorrect measurements despite several attempts. Went to a eye doctor for a proper measurement and this app was about 10mm off.. Waste of $8. Also a pain to use when you can't see the app. (While the setup boxes are bright, they are super thin, so when you have to take your glasses off for measurement, you aren't able to easily make out where to line up your head.. maybe make that a little bolder.

After numerous measurements taken with a paper PD ruler my husband and I ended up with different numbers. Then he tried another method that gave us a repeating number, but when you're buying glasses on line you want to be absolute, right!?? We thought the app was worth a try to ease our minds from second guessing ourselves. The app was super easy to use!!! It confirmed our measurement down to the decimal point as well as provided the reading PD. Totally worth every every penny!!

Its just not accurate. I tried it over a dozen times with different results each time. This led me to decide using a ruler and mirror instead, where I found it was around 3 or 4 mm different from all the results from this app. Additionally I later found that several online glasses retailers have a very similar process offered free on their websites. Waste of money.

Works great. Got one number for 3 tries, then got a slightly higher number (1 mm higher) the 4th time after looking into the distance when taking the photos. Need to go read the directions again to see if I did it exactly right. Will update shortly.... UPDATE:. I didn't see instructions on how far to stare when taking the photo. So when looking at the camera, I got 66. When looking into the distance, I got 67. Seems pretty accurate to me. SECOND UPDATE: Thank you, GlassifyMe!!

It works decently. I got 67mm using a ruler in the mirror and this gave 67mm. The only way that I could get a good result though was by using a tripod with a phone holder attachment. Would probably work better with a friend taking the picture for you also. I would like to suggest to the developers to put the shutter buttons higher up on the screen, because that's what made it hard for me to use. It's awkward to hold the phone down low so you can reach the shutter button with your thumb.

It worked well. I wish it had 2 features. I wish you could rotate the lines while measuring the card width, in case you hold it a little askew. It probably doesn't make much difference, but it would increase my confidence in the result. Also, I wish you could zoom in while correcting the pupil detection. It was a little hard to see my pupils. Finally, I appreciate the privacy warning, but it should be more explicit. Do not use an unmasked credit card, even though I believe they are honest.
