New way to do field measurments

I was so excited today! I got my new Occipital Structure Sensor with a mounting bracket for my iPad Air (4 years old).

I followed all the instructions sent to me via email after my purchase. I had to download 6 apps and then go back to the original YouTube video where I learned of this amazing device, to find that I had to download yet another app (the right one this time), called Canvas.

As soon as I opened the app, it recommended that I get a new iPad, because mine will be slow and sluggish and probably not have enough memory. Oh, and it is highly recommended that I get the Wide Vision Lens ($43.00 with shipping).

I think I mentioned that I hate field measuring.  It is time consuming and I am always terrified that I will make a mistake.  I even went back to my client to triple check my measurements from last week. Kitchen cabinets must be exact.

Next steps.  I found I can get $110.00 back on my iPad if I upgrade. Well, now I have 2 choices. The new iPad Pro comes in 2 sizes: 10.5" and a monster at 12.9".  So naturally, being of small stature (4'-11"), I would prefer the smaller version, but to my dismay, the Structor Sensor bracket isn't made for the 10.5", only the gigantic 12.9".  Did I mention that the humongus one is also $150 more?

News Flash:  Alex from Canvas responded to my email for help in a "flash".  He was so helpful. They are making a bracket for the 10.5", but it won't be available for about 2 months. They are willing to exchange mine, which makes me happy.  In the meantime, I'll play with my new toys and buy a new iPad Pro (10.5"). I'm sure I will be thrilled in a few months and won't mind field measuring so much.
