The Ruler Pro for iPhone, iPad and iPad mini app has maximum measuring limit of 7 cm and 3 inches. This app has two ways of measuring the length of any object. The first method is the traditional one in which you keep the scale beside the object with placing 0 at the starting point and then checking the number on the scale corresponding to the end point of the object. While this method is very popular but this app also offers another method to measure in which you don’t have to worry about reading the numbers on the scale. To use this method, you can see that there are two sliders, adjacent to each other, in the screenshot. Simply place one of them at the starting point while the other one at end point. When you have placed them at the right places, then you can check the exact measurement on the blue colored box. This method also helps you in measuring more accurate reading which you might not be able to measure while doing it manually.

The third ruler app for iPhone in the list is RulerPhone Free. This app is different from other apps mentioned in this post as this app lets you measure the length of any object by clicking an image of it. To use this app, first click the picture of the object which you want to measure. While clicking the picture, you need to place a credit card sized card next to the object you want to measure. After clicking the photo, you will see a blue colored box at the center of the screen. Next, align both the card and blue colored box. When you have aligned both of them, lock the position by tapping on the Lock Card option at top of the screen and tap on the measure option. Now, simply drag your finger on the screen to measure the object. You can also use this app to measure the length of any object present in any of your existing photos. The app lets you measure the object with length upto 1.5 feet in free version.

Although the app mentions that it is required to align the credit card sized card against the object to measure but I also tested the app for measuring the object without card and it worked absolutely fine for me.
