Measure, calculate, done: easily record digital measurements on your smartphone.
I was the driving force for a digital solution in my business because I hated the overwhelming amount of paperwork.

Measuring is at the heart of every trades business and is essential for determining the sizes and quantities you need for your material orders, creating quotes and billing. This is why accurate and precise measurements are so important - but it can be difficult to achieve this with pen and paper. Recording measurements as physical notes can be time-consuming, disorganised and can easily lead to mistakes.
With ToolTime, you can accurately log and calculate measurements fast. Track everything as you work and easily transfer all measurement data to key documents, like quotes and invoices. Recording measurements with ToolTime is easier, faster and more efficient. So you can reduce your paperwork load.
1. Find the measurements feature
Select the ‘measurements’ option within an appointment. Choose what you want to measure: add lengths, area, room or quantities.
2. Log measurments and calculate
Once you have selected what kind of measurement you want to add, type in the number and then the right unit. Add deductions in the same way by clicking ‘deduct.’
3. Save and edit
You can group measurements together to keep everything perfectly organised. Easily save a finished measurement group and add as many additional groups as you like. All entries can be edited until the appointment is completed.
1. View logged measurements
In the appointment you can instantly see an overview of all logged measurements.
2. Easily add to a quote
If you create an quote from the appointment, you can decide if you’d like to add the measurements. You can control exactly how much data to include.
To avoid errors when taking digital measurements with the mobile app, we recommend always using the same measurement units.
When billing based on the area, openings larger than 2.50 square meters must be deducted from the total, while those equal to or smaller than 2.50 square meters must be individually measured. When measuring, always prioritise the smallest dimensions of each opening.
A laser rangefinder can help you to measure up to 200 metres with an accuracy of up to 1 mm/km.
We recommend that you always measure twice and check it before entering it into the app.
Entering the measurements directly into the app prevents mistakes from illegible handwriting and instead enables quick and accurate reporting.
