What it does
Point your iPhone Pro at someone and HowTall reads their height in real time. ARKit body-pose finds head and feet, and the LiDAR scanner projects those points onto the floor plane for an accurate measurement in cm or ft/in. Fully on-device — no accounts, no analytics, no servers. Camera and depth frames are processed in memory and discarded. Free, no IAP. Requires an iPhone with LiDAR (12 Pro or later, any Pro/Pro Max). iOS 17+.

Utilities Developer Shafkathullah Ihsan Language EN English Size 1.4 MB iPhone HowTall measures a person's height in real time using your iPhone Pro's camera and LiDAR scanner. Point the rear camera at someone, and HowTall instantly projects their head and feet onto the floor plane to read their height — no tape measure, no markers, no setup. Everything runs on-device using ARKit body-pose tracking and the LiDAR depth sensor. No images or measurements ever leave your phone. FEATURES • Real-time, smoothed height readout • LiDAR-accurate (uses the depth sensor, not camera estimation) • Save measurements locally with an optional snapshot • Share an annotated image via the iOS share sheet •…from apps.apple.com

Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
