iPhone as a spirit level: this is how it works without an additional app
The iPhone as a spirit level - no problem: Because you don't even need an additional app. We show you where the spirit level is hidden on the iPhone.
Spirit level on the iPhone - it's that easy
- As of iOS 7, you no longer need an additional app for the spirit level on the iPhone. Instead, just open the compass app.
- When you open the compass app for the first time, you will be asked to calibrate the compass.
- You can then swipe left and get the spirit level. It consists of two circles and an inclination in the middle.
- When you put the iPhone straight on the table, the circles are on top of each other and are green. The display shows 0 °.
- If, however, you place the smartphone crosswise on the outer edge, the lower half turns green and it also appears at 0 °.
The design of the iPhone spirit level is quite modern and does not have much in common with the conventional spirit level. For the right look, you should therefore use the free iHandy spirit level.
