Trailer level application for Android Phone

Finally a talking app for the Android phone that tells you when your rv is level. Very inexpensive ($0.99). Check out the website and especially the video.

Android level app

Cool! I have a carpenter's level on my iPod and we used it when we put our pool table together.

I use an app called On The Level. It's not trailer specific and it's free. It is also one of the few that will calibrate so it can adjust your phone to be true if you have a phone or a case that isn't perfectly straight on the back.

I don't think 99 cents will break anybody.


Pretty cheap for what it does.

This is probably the only time there's been an app for android that I want and I can't find something like it for apple.

I checked the iTunes store and there is no trailer leveling app for Apple devices (iPhone, etc.) There are just the regular levels with a bubble. I personally use a small level bar we bought at a yard sale once. It is about a foot long and resembles the long levels that carpenters use.

For a junk app with the worst fonts anyone could have ever picked and all of the other alternatives are free, I would say 99 cents is a ripoff.

And to think that I just walk to the side of the trailer and look at the level on the side...or have my daughter stand in front of the level and tell me when it is roughly level....that saves me the 4 ft walk..lol.

That is very true Mark. Sounds like a bargain to me.

It's the android I can't afford.

I think it's a good idea. I just use a carpenters level. Where I struggle is compensating for the slide outs from left to right.

I use a 2 ft level on the floor just inside the door on the floor. I have found that at approx 1/16" to just shy of an 1/8" in 2ft is just about right when I put the slide out. I usually strive for just a hair lower on slide side as I feel it may help to divert the water. Of course if you have a slide on each side that won't work. But that's what I do.

That's pretty much what I do. My street side always ends up a litte lower once everything settles.

We had outside levelers on old unit.

We don't move it, so it stays level. Check once in a while in case she settles.

And while $0.99 is cheap, free is free!
