This girl is not big on technology. I know that sounds weird seeing as my living is made on the computer. BUUUUUT I found these apps on Bobvila.com and they seem super awesome!! I even said “Ooo” out loud when I read about the D-Photo Measures. Plus it’s for Android so that’s amazing! Here’s a list of the apps and how they work.
Though not marketed expressly for remodelers, Evernote excels as a tool for collecting and collating notes, images, web addresses, video clips—you name it, you can save it. Just as important, you can easily find your stored data when you need it again in the future. While the free version is plenty powerful, consider opting for the paid version if you want to upload large files, work offline, or invite others to edit your plans.
For both iOS and Android (free/$5 a month for Premium)
A five-star renovation app available for Android devices, the Handyman Calculator offers a wide variety of customizable calculators to help you determine the quantity of materials required for whatever job you’re planning. In addition, you can use the app to create shopping lists and based on your input, measurements are converted from metric to imperial.
For Android (free/$4.99 for Pro)
Struggling to find a paint color resembling that of your favorite flower? Snap an image with your smartphone and run it through Color Capture, Benjamin Moore’s free paint-matching app. Available for both iPhone and Android, this tool gives users the power to identify which of Benjamin Moore’s 3,300 paints most closely corresponds to any one color in your supplied image.
For both iOS and Android (free)
Looking for a fast and easy way to save and share things like room dimensions, door and window sizes, or cabinet lengths? Forget your notepad and pencil! Instead, use an app like D-Photo Measures for Android, which lets you mark up photos on your phone with measurements and notes. (It also calculates angles based on measurements). For iOS devices, an analogous app is Photo Measures.
For Android (free/$2.99 for Pro)
The Mark on Call iPhone and iPad app enables you to map out the floor plans of rooms based on their real-life dimensions. Further, you can enrich those layouts you create with such fine details as furniture, window and door placement, and flooring types. Doing so gives you the “big picture”—indeed, it’s a great way to compile all the information you’ve gathered in other apps into a single vision.
For iOS ($4.99)
