Slope angle with smartphone

[bobbutts]

Was just messing around with Smart Tools
Seems to measure slope angle quickly and accurately. I'm curious about how steep a slope is from time to time, will give it a try

Good thought. I've had that app on my phone for awhile and use it for lots of other things. For example it actually works pretty well as a stud finder. But I never thought to try ski slope angles.

How do you use it for a stud finder??

It's got a metal detector built in. It's pretty sensitive. Works like any stud finder, slide your phone across the wall it picks up sheetrock screws, nails, etc. I wouldn't use it all day long on a job site. But pretty handy to have in your pocket if you're hanging a picture or something.

No iPhone for me. But that one looks pretty powerful,
