Turn your phone into a spirit level using its motion sensors, with a calibration option for a true flat zero.

How to use this tool

  1. 1Lay the phone flat on the surface you want to check.
  2. 2If your browser asks, allow access to the motion sensor.
  3. 3Read the tilt in degrees and watch the bubble move toward the center.
  4. 4Tap Calibrate on a surface you trust to be flat to set it as zero.

About this test

This tool uses the phone's orientation sensors (accelerometer) to measure tilt front-to-back and left-to-right, showing a bubble that centers when the surface is level. It is handy for hanging a shelf, leveling a washing machine or checking a table without a physical level.

Calibration lets you zero the reading against a reference you trust, which also corrects for a phone that reports a small resting offset. Everything runs in your browser and no sensor data leaves your device.

Privacy: this tool runs entirely in your browser. No image, audio or device data is recorded or sent to any server.

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is a phone bubble level?

Good enough for everyday tasks, usually within a degree or two. For fine carpentry or masonry, a calibrated physical level is still more reliable.

The level seems off. What can I do?

Place the phone on a surface you know is flat and tap Calibrate. That sets the current position as zero and removes any resting offset.
