Gyroscope in a mobile phone?
Does a spirit level app need a gyroscope? If not, what does it use?
I told someone with a Motorola Moto G that a spirit level app wouldn't work because it needs a gyroscope, but he proved me wrong, it does.

I think any self respecting handyman would use a real spirit level.
