Clinometer HD on iPad
This clinometer * application is a (hopefully most accurate) slope finder tool on the iPhone. It can be applied on all edges of the iPhone/iPod touch (preferrably the ones without buttons) in every direction. It is designed to be as accurate as possible (normally in the range of ±0.1 degrees, although this might depend on the device).
The clinometer supports multiple color schemes and 5 unit setups. A fullscreen mode can be toggled. The clinometer smoothly converts to a bubble mode when hold accordingly.
User Manual
This is a preliminary documentation for the Clinometer HD application for the iPad. Expect more with the next updates.Important Note
If the clinometer appears to be frozen then do following steps:Remove the application, shut down the iPap (leave off for 10s at least), boot the device and reinstall (free of charge) from the app store. And start right away (without starting other apps)
Switch Color
The background color and bubble mode color can be set individually. Both can be set via the settings menu. The toolbar S/C button switched the color for the current mode.Switch Color

You can switch the unit mode either by the settings menu, or via the toolbar.Simple calibration
Switch on the calibration mode via the settings menu. Put the device flat on a table or hold the device in one of the four directions perpendicular to the surface (bottom side down, bottom side up, left side up or left side down). While holding the device, press the button that automatically gets enabled if you are holding the device correctly. Then just click finish and the calibration should be accurate as long as the surface was properly leveled. When finished you can uncheck the calibration mode in the settings.Further information and contact
According to wikipedia: An inclinometer or clinometer is an instrument for measuring angles of slope (or tilt), elevation or inclination of an object with respect to gravity. It is also known as a tilt meter, tilt indicator, slope alert, slope gauge, gradient meter, gradiometer, level gauge, level meter, declinometer, and pitch & roll indicator.
