Handy App

[NoWorries]

I was browsing a Facebook forum last night and found this app
http://staylevel.com.au/

$3 so I though I would give it a go, so far so good.
I would love a dollar for how often I stuff up the leveling proccess when reversing onto leveling blocks.

Make sure you take the auto lock of the screen of the device you chuck on the van floor as it seems that it also stops the app from working when it locks the screen.

ps: I have now affiliation etc blah blah blah

Interesting.....could be very useful for devotees of phone apps.

If it tests ok, I might give it a go but will probably find myself approaching a ramp and having no idea where my phone is.....

A good find by the looks of it.

Speaking of which, has anyone tried that Air Dragon tyre inflator advertised everywhere? Not an app but a device. Just wondered if those who test new stuff out have any thoughts on it.

If you have an iPhone just go into utilities and then compass, swipe left and you have a level feature...maybe not as good as the app but will do.

Yeah but then you still have to get the wife to shout out as you are reversing the van
this requires 2 devices and sensor and a receiver so no shouting required

Didn't see that part. Have you been able to test it out on anything as yet?

My desk at home but I was a fair distance away from it, It was a pain to reverse

I tried a similar app that works by placing phone on a flat surface in the van and it Bluetooths to car radio and speaks to you which corner needs lifting. It worked great but I didn't use it.

I downloaded the app a while back on both phones, but haven't used it in anger yet

I've got the Talking Caravan Level, which uses the Bluetooth in the car. Leave the phone on the floor in the van and it barks orders at you through the cars Bluetooth. Seems to be a good idea, but I only remember Ive got it when Im bored and mucking around with the phone far far away from any campsite. The best laid plans are always "hatched" when sitting on the throne

In the mean time Ill keep using the other "device" that barks orders at me; unfortunately disabling the Bluetooth on that one has precious little effect ... just makes it angrier
