Does anyone have recommendations for either a free cell phone app, or reasonably priced technology that i can use to talk around and scan an existing building layout?

Even if i had to redraw it in cad/revit afterwords, something that would show the walls and dimensions rather than using a tape measure in every single room.

Thanks,
 
I think the little Bosch laser measures are pretty cheap and available at the big box stores...Or are you looking for something that will actually map it?
 
I have tried a few

Seem more work than worth

A co worker showed me an Android only one
That draws each room and somehow you can connect them to make a floor plan

Will get the name and post
