Level 1.0.0.0
For those who are looking to have every line straight around them and check objects without using anything else but the phone in their pocket, Level from Microsoft is a possible solution for all Windows Phone users.
Uncomplicated interface for seamless utilization
The application comes with a very simple and plain front-end that is focused entirely on practicality and providing accurate readings in an easy to read manner. The instant response from the app makes it possible for you to view in real-time all the angle adjustments.
Suitable for use on plain surfaces or as a tube level, the app adjusts the display mode automatically, depending on the screen orientation.
Get live values and calibrate the device on the spot
Level will display the surface angles and the virtual air bubble as they are changing, helping you to see which sides are inclined a bit more than the target tolerance. The readings modify very quickly, as the sensitivity of the device and application are quite high.
In case you want to use a certain surface as reference, the calibration function of this utility will come in handy. Note that it is activated only after keeping the phone still in the same position for a couple of seconds.
An important aspect that you have to take into consideration is the actual design of the phone because it can influence the readings and make it very difficult for you to get accurate results. This may happen because of the back camera placement, for example and the data will also be biased when the device is kept inside a protective cover or special case.

Bottom Line
Design / UI6
The appearance of this app is certainly not impressive, but it will surely help users get the job done and easily read the data they are interested in. |
Function9
The utility has a nice feel and is very responsive, providing instant feedback. The calibration feature is a welcomed addition and it would be great if a logging function would be added. |
Security10
Level does not pose any kind of risks for the phone or the data stored inside as it stays well off the sensitive areas of the system. |
Battery3
As useful as it may be as a measuring instrument, this application could be used for quickly discharging the battery as its power consumption is very high. |
Price10
For anyone looking for an accurate bubble level to carry around on the mobile phone, this utility is certainly a keeper. |
Compatibility9
Most Windows Phone users will be able to benefit from this app as it runs on any device that is powered by version 7.5 or above of the OS. |
