Everything we get asked, answered.

Dress Measurement is a body measurement and size recommendation app for iPhone and Android. You can capture measurements two ways: manually with a tape measure, or using Body Scan, where you scan yourself with your phone camera and then draw on the screen at the exact points you want measured. Both methods are free on every tier. The app stores measurements in organized profiles, gives you instant size recommendations across 122 supported clothing brands, and exports your data as PDF or CSV. It is built for tailors who need a client measurement book as well as for online shoppers who want to stop guessing their size.

Yes. The Free tier is genuinely free and includes manual measurement entry, Body Scan with your phone camera, size recommendations across all supported brands, iCloud backup on iPhone, PDF export, and up to 7 profiles on iPhone and Android. There are no ads on iPhone or Android.

Yes, on both iPhone and Android. Tailor Shop includes the full shop suite alongside the measurement core: order management with status tracking (received, cutting, sewing, fitting, alterations, complete), fitting appointment scheduling with reminders, invoicing with PDF export, per-order client notes and photos, contact fields on every client record, a business profile for your shop details, and client messaging by WhatsApp, SMS, and email. The measurement core is included too: unlimited client profiles, custom measurements, photos and notes per client, and CSV / PDF export. Both apps offer the same suite.

The Free tier covers personal use well: 7 profiles, all measurements, size recommendations, and PDF export, with no ads on either platform. Tailor Shop ($12.99/mo, or $59.99/yr with a seven-day free trial, which works out to $5.00/mo) adds unlimited profiles, custom measurements, photos and notes per profile, CSV export, reference measurements, and the shop suite, orders, invoices, the fitting schedule with reminders, client messaging, and a business profile, on both iPhone and Android, the features a working tailor needs. Size recommendations stay free on both tiers.

On the Free tier, you can save up to 7 profiles on iPhone and 7 on Android. The Tailor Shop subscription removes this limit entirely, so you can manage an unlimited number of client profiles. Profiles store all measurements, notes, photos, and export history.

Yes, but not the way most body-scanner apps do it. Dress Measurement includes a Body Scan feature on every tier, including Free, that uses your phone camera: you scan yourself, then you draw on the screen at the exact points you want measured. That extra step trades a little speed for significantly more accurate results than apps that take one photo and guess from it. You can also skip Body Scan entirely and enter measurements manually with a tape measure. Both methods are free on every tier.

Yes. On iPhone and iPad, Dress Measurement uses iCloud to sync profiles and measurements across your Apple devices automatically; it works on the Free tier, and advanced iCloud settings are available on the Tailor Shop tier. On Android, Cloud Sync does the same job as part of a Tailor Shop subscription: sign in with Google or an email address, and your data syncs across every Android device signed in to that account.

Yes. PDF export is available on the Free tier and produces a clean, shareable measurement sheet. CSV export is available on the Tailor Shop tier and is designed for use with spreadsheets, client management tools, or ordering systems.

Yes. Dress Measurement is available on both iPhone and Android, and both carry the measurement tools, size recommendations and the Tailor Shop suite. Sync works differently: iCloud on iPhone and iPad, and Cloud Sync, part of Tailor Shop, on Android.

Yes. Version 2.3 of the iPhone app is designed for the iPhone Duo. Closed, it works like any iPhone, with the app's bars in a strip down the right edge. Open, your client list sits beside the client you are measuring, and orders, schedule and invoices open beside their lists. Folding or unfolding the phone keeps your place, including the open client and anything you were typing. On Android foldables the app runs as a regular phone app.

Measuring works fully offline: you can enter measurements, run a Body Scan, manage profiles and read your size recommendations without a connection. The app uses the internet to sync (iCloud on iPhone and iPad, Cloud Sync on Android), to download and update the size charts for all 122 brands from our servers, and to send the things you choose to send: a brand request, a fit feedback answer, or, if you turn it on, anonymous Body Scan sharing. It keeps the last complete set of charts on the device, and Android also ships with a built-in set, so recommendations keep working when you are offline.

Yes, on the Tailor Shop tier. The app ships with a comprehensive set of standard measurements (bust, waist, hip, inseam, shoulder, sleeve, and many more), and Tailor Shop lets you add any measurement your work requires beyond those defaults.

Yes. Home sewists use Dress Measurement to store body measurements and reference them against pattern size charts, the same way tailors use it for clients. On the Tailor Shop tier you can add custom measurements like crotch depth, armscye, sleeve pitch, or back shoulder slope that most pattern size charts assume but generic body-measurement apps leave out.

You enter your measurements once, then open the Sizes tab and pick a brand and clothing category. The app compares your measurements to the brand's size chart and tells you the best matching size with a confidence level: high (all measurements within range), medium, or low. The algorithm uses the same logic for both iPhone and Android, and the brand size chart data is the same on both platforms. See the size recommendations page for a full explanation.

122 brands across men's and women's clothing are supported, covering a wide range of price points and regions. The list includes brands commonly available in North America, Europe, West Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Visit the Brands page for the full list.

Yes. Custom measurements cover any garment type, and tailors across West Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia already use Dress Measurement this way for ankara, aso ebi, agbada, salwar kameez, kurta, lehenga, and similar traditional wear. The standard body-measurement set covers most needs; Tailor Shop lets you add garment-specific fields whenever a traditional cut requires them.
