Google Measure app is available (but glitchy) on even more phones

Even more Android users can now measure things with their phones.

Google Measure — or what is essentially a virtual measuring tape in an app — is now compatible with any device that runs ARCore, Google's platform for building augmented reality tools. 

The Measure app was previously only compatible with devices that supported Project Tango, Google's now-defunct augmented reality computing platform. But an update today makes the Measure app compatible with various Samsung Galaxy, Sony, and Pixel devices.
