The unique high-tech power tools they're calling RYOBI Phone Works are used with your smartphone and offers a number of benefits for getting those home improvements done.

Multiple Tools For Multiple Jobs

There's a power tool for a variety of different things, with each one working with your smartphone and it's components like its display, HD camera, microphone, motion processing and more. The Phone Works line includes testing and measuring tools like a laser level, laser distance finder, infrared thermometer, stud finder, inspection scope, moisture meter and noise-suppressing headphones

All Tools Work With An App

The RYOBI Phone Works app allows you to access all of the tools in the line from one home screen. The app is free and allows you to email, share, file, add voice notes and geo-tag for a more efficient way of handling all your home improvement projects. You can also capture images and video of your projects to save for later. The tools work with both Android and iOS devices.

For example, the laser tool plugs into your phone and will use its accelerometers and onboard motion processing capabilities to provide you with a perfectly level crosshair on your home's wall. The app also serves as an Angle Finder. The infrared thermometer clips onto your phone and works with its camera to show you a thermal map of whatever you decide to point at.
