BEVEL Get Bevel

Changelog

What changed, in plain words. Newest first.

2.0

October 2026

  • AR Measure (Bevel Pro): measure lengths, heights and areas close up with the camera, on supported phones. A green ring marks a found surface, an amber ring an estimate, and every reading shows a ±. On Android now; on iPhone it comes with Bevel 2.0, which is in TestFlight.
  • Rangefinder upgrades (Bevel Pro): a camera sight with a box you tap or draw, easier box locks in the hand, calibration from a height or distance you know, and a horizon line that follows your sight zero.
  • The Light Meter's bulb glows yellow.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements.

1.7

September 2026

  • The Metal Detector pulses (Bevel Pro): rings leave the reading faster and brighter as the field changes, and a soft glow comes on when something is near.
  • The Light Meter has a bulb (Bevel Pro) that brightens and dims with the light it reads.
  • More from Zone7 Studios in Settings is a page of our other apps, and Share this app sends a Bevel link to anyone you like.
  • About links the privacy, terms and support pages, the Bevel website and the open-source licences.

1.6

September 2026

  • Rangefinder camera sight (Bevel Pro): point the camera at something, mark its base and its top, and read its distance and height. Bevel can box the object for you, or you can draw the box yourself.
  • Pro previews: tap a Pro tool to try it for a few seconds before you unlock it, once a day for each tool. The Rangefinder preview runs for ten seconds.
  • The Rangefinder remembers your phone height and says when the phone is moving or the target is far.

1.5

September 2026

  • We receive anonymous usage stats.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements.

1.3

August 2026

  • Sensor Check (free) lists every sensor your phone carries, with live readings: see what your hardware can do, and why a tool shows ✓ or ✗ for your device.
  • Vial Level (Bevel Pro) is a glowing liquid bubble level: one big vial that follows how you hold the phone, reads against level, 45° and plumb, ticks when you land level, and pours in three liquid colours. Hold freezes a reading; Zero measures from any surface you choose.

1.2

August 2026

  • Bug fixes and stability improvements.

1.1

July 2026

  • The Level is rebuilt. Hold the phone edge-on and it is a full-screen torpedo level with three vials, flat, 45° and plumb, and it picks the one your grip calls for. Lay the phone down and it becomes a bullseye.
  • Steadier bubbles. Bubbles glide instead of jittering, and a small haptic tick fires as one settles in the middle.
  • Hold and Zero. Hold freezes a reading so you can read it after you move the phone; Zero trims a vial against a reference you trust. The screen stays lit while the Level is open.

1.0

July 2026

  • Bevel arrives: twelve tools in one tidy box. Level, compass, protractor, ruler, flashlight, plumb and a screen test free; metal detector, light meter, seismometer, altimeter and rangefinder in Bevel Pro.
  • Eight skins, five sound sets.
  • Honest about hardware: every tool shows a ✓ or ✗ for your device.
