What it does

Outline it, measure it, done.

Search for an address, tap the corners of the site, and read the area in square metres. SiteArea calculates the area on the curved surface of the earth, rather than as a flat shape on the screen.

  • Tap three or more corners and the shape closes itself
  • Geodesic area in square metres, calculated on the curved earth
  • A hybrid map with satellite imagery and labels, so you can match what you see on the ground
  • Search for an address or place and start measuring
  • Undo the last point, or clear the shape and start again
  • Keep a list of the areas you've measured
  • No ads, no subscription, and no access to your location

Good for comparing lots, sizing a lawn or yard, planning outdoor space and quick site checks.

Before you start

What you need.

  • An iPhone or iPad running iOS 26.2 or later

SiteArea measures plan area: the area as seen from above. It doesn't account for elevation, so on sloping ground the real surface is bigger. Map imagery can sit a few metres out, so use it for planning and estimates, not for legal boundaries.
