A digital solution that leverages smartphone technology to provide weight measurement, typically used for small quantities of cannabis, constitutes an application-based scale. These tools often utilize the phone’s sensors and screen to estimate mass, offering a convenient, albeit potentially less precise, alternative to traditional weighing instruments. For instance, a user might place cannabis on the phone’s screen, and the app uses pressure sensitivity or other inputs to calculate the approximate weight.
The value of such applications lies in their portability and accessibility. They provide a readily available means of estimating the quantity of cannabis without requiring dedicated equipment. Historically, individuals relied on physical scales, which could be cumbersome and less discreet. The emergence of these applications offers a streamlined method for quantity assessment, though their accuracy should always be critically evaluated against calibrated instruments.
