I use this app to measure the relative proportions of objects in images. It works great for that. The only thing I wish for would be an optional vertical and horizontal ruler with numbers, so I wouldn't have to count the number of grid cells myself.

When I open the app, it shows the grid, but when I want to use in another apps (background), the grid disappear. My phone is xiaomi redmi note

It's now very easy to verify app design. And it's fun to display grid over Google apps and make fun of them when they are not aligned :)

GridWichterle is a great tool to test your app's design. Simple idea - yet so useful!
