Tools in the Mobile App

With a paid subscription, users have access to a set of tools in the mobile app. To access them, tap the crossed ruler and pencil icon ( ), which can be seen at the bottom right of your screen.

Tip

Additional tools and functionality are available only on the web app. Check out the web app support pages to learn all about what's available.

Here is a video tutorial demonstrating the Distance, Area, and Drop Pin functions.

Drop Pin

The Drop Pin tool allows users to do two things.

First, users can find the lat/long coordinates of any place on the map by moving the crosshair into the desired location. If you want to copy this lat/long value, simply "long press" the value, and you should see the "copy" option pop up.

Second, users can drop a pin to save a particular location. Saved pins will show up in the user's 'Saved' panel, which is the middle option ( ) in the main screen's bottom right toolbar.

Distance

The Distance tool allows users to calculate the langth between points. Simply position the crosshairs at your starting point, then tap "Start Measuring". Move the crosshair to the next point of interest (you'll see a dotted line connecting the two). Continue to drop additional points as desired.

At any point if you want to remove a point, you can tap "Undo".

Draw Area

Users can use the Draw Area tool to create a custom area (perhaps your neighborhood, or an area of interest) that you'd like to add to your Saved list. Similar to the Distance tool, start by positioning the crosshairs at your starting point, and proceed to move the crosshairs and mark each corner of the area you would like to draw. Area measurements will show as soon as you have dropped three or more points.

Once you have successfully drawn your area, you can click "Finish" to save this area - or simply swipe down to close the toolbar if you do not wish to save it.
