Bosch MeasureOn App - All information in one hand.

[@mcallisterwill]

Someone needs to tell Bosch that a floor-plan usually contains multiple rooms... what they have created here is an admittedly very good room-plan app but not one that can create floorplans.

Just tested it, and realized I cannot export plan to dwg auto cad format. Major miss in my opinion. I am an architect, this definitely should have been a must from the get go. Leica app has dwg export function…

Recently got a GLM400CL. Wow. This is great! I can get everything recorded on site from the unit to the tablet. With all rooms exported to PDF, the exercise of getting the drawing back into autocad or another vector based layout is a cinch. (Normally I have to redraw.) I love it. Now I need more buildings. Larger ones please. With complex corners and multiple facets. What a time saver.

[@pratyushkapoor200]

Wow...Thanks for the tutorial

[@kirchgrabercarpentryllc2050]

Program is nice considering it's a low level layout program. Only major that bothers me is the measurements when you export to PDF in the "wall overview" can be crowded and overlap. Especially in the horizontal measurements, there's a huge white space between the elevation view and layout that can be utilized. My output shows my 5 walls on one page, lower it to 4 a page and allow for all the measurements to be legible. If a feature of this app is to transfer measurements to a PDF for reading, it basically fails this since it's not legible. Either way, great job, Bosch. I bought the GLM 400C since it can measure outdoors and figured the app would be an added bonus. It would be awesome if you guys kept developing the program. EDIT: I used this program on an Android and the ease of use for this on a phone is quite impressive.

Hello, thank you for your positive comment and feedback! As we are continuously and intensively working on improvements and new features for MeasureOn, we are also already working on an improved legibility and a resolution for the overlapping measurements and will gladly take your suggestion into account. Until then we have to kindly ask for your patience and understanding. For further feedback or suggestions, please feel free to always contact us directly via [e-mail]. Thank you! Your MeasureOn Team

Is it possible to just collect a simple list of measurement ?

[@OxygenGR]

Hey, can i export dxf files or something export for autocad?

[@arnisrozenbergs9662]

Very usefull information

[@coopersestateagents6997]

But how do you show multiple rooms together on the same floorplan?

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi Coopers, The developers chose to keep rooms separate within the app to avoid errors during the measuring process. A situation when this could occur is when 2 rooms share a wall but only part of said wall. The measurement could be applied to the wrong side automatically due to their proximity and suddenly the plans are a little skewed! The option is to create separate rooms within a workspace and then long press the rooms within that workspace and drag them next to each other. That way you get an accurate representation of the floorplan without risking an inaccurate measurement ruining the job. I hope that helps answer your question. Please let us know if you have anymore feedback for the app as it's actively being developed for further updates!

Would be an excellent tutorial, if they would shut off the annoying music. Why talk over music? Very distracting.

[@jamesgonzalez1500]

Ok app. Would be nice to be able to use the app and information from a project across platforms - pulling the info from my phone and editing it on my desktop.

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hello, thank you for your comment! We are working intensively on the MeasureOn Cloud for data storage and synchronization between several devices, which also includes a web application to be used on your desktop computer. Unfortunately, we cannot give you a timeframe for the release yet and kindly ask for your patience and understanding until then. In case of further questions or annotations, please do not hesitate to reach out to us again directly via [e-mail]. Your MeasureOn Team

Honestly can't say I'm overly impressed with this app, especially given the fact that you can't create complete floor plans incorporating all rooms. While developers have concerns regarding dimensions, the bigger problem to contractors is ENTIRE rooms could accidentally be omitted.

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hello, thank you for your comment and feedback. We are sorry to hear that we could not (yet) impress you with MeasureOn. Since users can sketch only one room at a time, we recommend creating a workspace, on which you can put an unlimited number of room sketches and align them on the same workspace (via drag & drop), to indicate an entire floor. The current single room layout should avoid errors when transferring measurements with the laser rangefinder, nevertheless we will take your feedback into account and have it reviewed for the future app development. Feel free to always contact us directly for further feedback, questions or any assistance: [e-mail]. Thank you! Your MeasureOn Team

[@mcallisterwill]

@@BoschProfessionalUK aligning rooms on the workspace doesn't really work since each room is like a drawing on a piece of paper, they overlap and obscure each other

[@broadsmilemissmagootewkesb5799]

I'm sure its wonderful but I couldn't stand the daft needless background music so I'll never know...

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Noted :)

How make house with 4 workspaces on 1 project? I want draw house floor, but I Cant, 1 is upper than 2, and I Cant move and join

[@alexandergomelquispe7024]

The measuring master app is no longer compatible with bosch GLM 50C?

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi Alexander, The Measuring Master App can be connected to your GLM 50 C, but we recommend to download the successor app MeasureOn as there won’t be any further updates for Measuring Master.

[@argokuusk]

When exporting the whole project that has one workspace with floor and walls in it and another one without the wall height set (only the floor needs to be remodeled), and selecting "Include wall views", the app still generates wall views for the second workspace as well. It can be very confusing for subcontractors. Is it possible to exclude wall views from a workspace without a set wall height within a project?

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hello, thank you for your comment! Since both workspaces are in one project, you can only make one setting for the export of the entire project, then in the wall overview of the second workspace only the length and no other measurements are shown. One option to avoid this would be to move the second workspace and export it individually with the wall view setting turned off there. However, we will gladly forward your feedback to the responsible department to have it reviewed for future updates. If you have any further questions or annotations, always feel free to contact us directly via [e-mail]. Thank you! Your MeasureOn Team

How do you export your files?

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi Amy, The functionality to export your files will be coming to the app later this year! Keep your eyes on our social media channels for when that gets released.

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi Amy, I've just been informed that workspace and project exporting are now supported on Android since version 1.0.5. I believe this was a recent addition so please do check that you have the latest version. If you're on iOS the feature will be rolling out within one of the next major updates. You should be able to find options for exporting under the 'share' button.

[@Professor-Scientist]

why put that horrible music in the background?

[@jamesberesford8307]

How do you change walls to be a APEX ceiling? Is it possible?

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi James, Unfortunately MeasureOn currently doesn’t support slopes, you can only add room heights at the moment. With that being said, we’ll take this feature into consideration for future updates.

[@-flanders-8975]

Please do

[@alexandergomelquispe7024]

I have the bosch GLM-50C and I downloaded the measuring master app but it won't let me connect via bluetooth

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi Alexander, Sorry to hear the device isn't connecting. Could you please downloading our successor app MeasureOn? If you also cannot connect to this app, please contact our app support ([e-mail]). We’re confident that we can support you in establishing a connection.

How do you save image to phone?

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hello, thank you for your comment. The images themselves cannot be saved to the phone gallery directly if this is what you intend to do. You do have the option to export the image as a JPEG or PDF file (click on the image on the workspace and choose “share”) and save the file to the phone then. Kindly contact us directly at any time for further questions, assistance or any feedback: [e-mail]. Thank you! Your MeasureOn Team

[@kevinkarinakersten2838]

How come when I make a detailed floor plan in the app, by using a uploaded drawing as background, it tells me: due to a logical conflict of wall’s the area cant be calculated… if I could send you a image, I could show you what I see, as some walls have a black outline with the measurement with it, however I also have some walls where the inside measurement is black, where the outside is blue…. I also have one wall where both inside and outside measurements are blue, in brackets… I assume the once in blue are to pay attention to, however it douse not tell me what is wrong, and because of it, I can not fix it, and thus kind of cant use it……

[@BoschProfessionalUK]

Hi Kevin & Karina Kersten, In situations like these it would be best if you directly contact support through the app itself. If you could please open the app, select the profile icon in the top left hand corner which opens your 'User account' menu, you can then click 'Contact us' highlighted in blue underneath the sub-heading 'Feedback & Support' This will enable you to contact the developers directly who should be able to help you with your query. I hope that helps!
