How to Use the Camera Level Indicator in CrewBox

A bubble level in the viewfinder — driven by the phone's motion sensor — so photos come out straight, not "close enough."

The bubble level sits top-center in the viewfinder and reads the phone's actual tilt.

Steps

  1. Open the camera → settings control.
  2. Toggle the Level indicator on.
  3. A level HUD appears on the live preview, reading the phone's actual tilt.
  4. Straighten the phone until the indicator shows level — then shoot.

Why Crews Turn It On

  • Documentation credibility: a tilted photo of a straight wall looks like a crooked wall. Level shots remove the argument.
  • Before/after pairs and progress sequences look professional when every frame shares the same true horizon.
  • One-handed shots (other hand on a ladder) drift — the HUD catches what your eye can't while balancing.

It measures the phone, not the scene — level phone, honest photo. The indicator never appears in the captured image, and the setting persists.
