With the innovation of technology and the advances of software with phones and tablets. The need for a physical protractor has diminished in recent years.
Mobile applications have taken the world by storm. Before mobile phones and apps, people were forced to do their measurements and mathematics by hand and with physical math instruments.
Although some people still prefer using the traditional protractor. Many prefer a software based option because most people out there always have their Android on them anyways. This is why a software based solution makes sense for most.
THE BEST PROTRACTOR APP FOR ANDROID
Although there are a plethora of measurement applications on the Google Play Store. This article will list in no particular order the best protractors that actually are actually easy and good to use. By the end of this post you will have found at least one if not more protractor apps that can add to your phone or tablet line up.
SMART PROTRACTOR
Possibly one of my favorites. Smart Protractor is exactly as the name suggest. A smart version of the measurement tool with a number of extra features such as camera view to measure, degree calibration and much more.
PROTRACTOR
With this app you can even convert your measurements to degrees and radians. This is a great all around app and can be useful in many different situations in life. Everything works as you would expect in a normal protractor app.
ON PROTRACTOR
The app features a quick angles and slope measurement option that works really nice and accurately. I would say this might even be more accurate than using a physical measurement tool. The nice thing is everything is electronic you just point and it measures without the need to read the angles manually.
CAMERA PROTRACTOR
Another great option for measuring your angles and degrees. The application has a ton of built in features and settings. You can even adjust your zoom, and choose to show the angle, length, and area.

PROTRACTOR + ANGLE GAUGE
Last but not least we have Protractor + Angle Gauge. The difference between this app and the others is you can use edge of your phone or tablet to measure. Using the edge of your device provides accurate measurements. Just don’t use any weird shaped cases as sometimes this can effect your results.
CONCLUSION
The need for a measuring applications can be beneficial in so many different ways. You don’t really know when your going to need to measure something in angles or degrees. With your phone most likely always on you anyways. You will never be stuck again when you need to measure something because your protractor app will always be available for use whenever you need it.
