How to Measure Someone’s Height with Your iPhone or iPad [VIDEO]

Apple has just published another great video on its official YouTube support channel, and this one details how you can use your iPhone 12 Pro or iPhone 13 Pro to measure someone’s approximate height.

On iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max, you can use the Measure app to instantly measure a person’s height from the floor to the top of their head, hair, or hat. You can even measure the seated height of a person in a chair.

Here’s how to do it:

• Position iPhone so that the person you want to measure appears on the screen from head to toe.
• After a moment, a line appears at the top of the person’s head (or hair, or hat), with the height measurement showing just below the line.
• To take a photo of the measurement, tap the Take Picture button.
• To save the photo, tap the screenshot in the lower-left corner, tap Done, then choose Save to Photos or Save to Files.

To take the measurement again, turn the iPhone away for a moment to reset the height.
