Review on πŸ“ CARTA: Smart Digital Mapping Wheel with Electronic Distance Measuring and Estimating in Feet, Inches, Yards, Meters - White by Jimmie Gebrehiwot

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Not recommended for evaluation or research use

I've been using this product for a week. There are problems this product tries to solve, but in doing so it only creates more. PROS: The product itself is reliable and well thought out. He is very good. Measurement. The battery life is reliable and not dead yet. CONS: It pairs with a terrible app. The app comes with almost no tutorial, but once you get the hang of it it's pretty easy to get your bearings. You can start drawing a project in minutes, but the app can't draw straight lines even if you ask it to. If you make a mistake and need to fix it, forget about it too because this app is for people who never make a mistake. There is no editing or deleting function for individual lines or points. To be honest the design of this app is so overlooked that I am returning the product. For these reasons, I would not recommend this product to anyone who needs to sketch the perimeter of a property. or for visual purposes with your phone would be nice. The only thing it's good for is distance measurement. Don't expect it to actually show up as a recognizable shape in the app, or give you a visual representation of what you're measuring. Instead of spending $130-$200 on this wheel, save some money and buy a manual measuring wheel. at least it works.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
