Eye height is where you hold the phone, from the ground. Stand on level ground with the base.
How to use it
- Measure your distance
Pace it out or tape it, from where you stand to the base.
- Read the angle to the top
Sight along your phone’s edge with the angle finder, or use a clinometer.
- Add your eye height
The height you hold the phone at, and read the total.
Tips
- Can’t reach the base?
Read the angle from two spots in line with it and type the distance between them.
- Stand back
Angles between 30° and 50° give the steadiest result.
- Level ground
On a slope, stand level with the base or the result is off.
