Saw a guy level a whole shed with a phone level app. Worked fine.

My neighbor was building a 10x12 shed last Saturday. He pulled out his iPhone, propped it on a 2x4, and called it good. I laughed. Then I checked with my 4-foot torpedo level. Dead nuts. Made me think how much money I've wasted on bubble levels over 15 years. Has anyone else junked their old tools for a phone?

Funny how good those phone sensors have gotten over the years. Your mileage may vary, but I tested mine against a Stabila 24-inch level and it was within a hair. Still keep the bubble levels around for rough framing where a drop could kill a phone, though.

Bet you'd think different when your phone goes flying off a stud, @black.pat.
