The iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max, and iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max models feature a LiDAR scanner next to the rear camera that can be used to instantly measure a person’s height in the Apple’s pre-installed measurement app.

iPhone Measure Height
To measure a person’s height, simply open the Measure app, point your iPhone at the person you want to measure, and make sure they are visible on the screen from head to toe. After a brief moment, a line should appear at the top of the person’s head along with their height. You can choose to display the measurement in feet and inches or centimeters in the Settings app under Measurement → Measurement Units.

The app measures a person’s height from the ground to the top of their head, hair or hat. You can even measure the seated height of someone sitting in a chair.

The circular shutter button in the lower right corner allows you to take a photo of the person with their size and share it with them.

The feature is not available on iPhones without a LiDAR scanner.
