App snapshot
Phone Scale — also marketed as Scale for Grams — is a free Android utility that converts your smartphone into a quick weight estimator. It uses camera-based computer-vision and on-device algorithms to deliver fast approximations of weight in common units. The interface is minimal and easy to navigate, letting users switch measurement units and review past readings.
Measurement process
- The app captures a photo or live image of the object and analyzes size and proportions with visual algorithms to infer weight.
- You can improve result quality by placing a known-size reference item next to what you’re weighing.
- Outputs can be shown in ounces, kilograms, or grams depending on your preference.
Core capabilities
- Share measurement results with others directly from the app.
- Save past readings to a local history for quick reference.
- Toggle between different unit systems (metric and imperial) with a single tap.
- Use a reference object or marker to boost estimate accuracy.
Useful scenarios
- Home cooks portioning ingredients for recipes.
- Travelers needing approximate weights for small items or souvenirs.
- DIY hobbyists checking lightweight components or materials.
- Fitness users estimating portions or snack sizes on the go.
Accuracy and limitations
While convenient, this application is not a certified scale and should not be relied on for precise, legal-for-trade measurements. Results are estimates and accuracy varies with lighting, camera quality, object shape, and use of a reference item. For critical measurements, use a calibrated physical scale.
