There are times I’d like to get a measurement of a room’s layout. I know there are some apps that do this, but a lot are just full of premium pay wall stuff.

I’m just trying to get the dimensions of my office (it is an odd shape) so I can okay around with potential furniture layouts.

      I’ve used this as well, it’s capable enough, and it’s free as in beer. I didn’t see where it was opensource though.

      I’ve used this for three houses now. It’s incredibly handy. I’m still not very good at it, but I did finally figure out how to make walls from a floorplan without having to do them individually.

      The android app asks me for a trial or to pay, but if I close it then it doesn’t seem to bother me (at least not right away). Maybe only the web version is FLOSS.

      Either way, this is useful, but I was more interested in something I could my phone to measure the walls than manually put them in. Thanks though!

        Ah, understood. I used the desktop application, never tried online or on android. Good luck!

      Not sure why you’re down voted, because it’s not FOSS? But SketchUp is what I used when I designed my studio and it worked fine (and free). Learning the CAD options listed above is gonna be way harder. Otherwise, there’s always blender but same thing with the learning curve.
