I modeled my house on SketchUp. So I can check the measurements when I'm at the DIY store with my phone .

Is sketchUp easy to use? I'm thinking about to switch programms to be honest. Looking up measurements with your phones sounds quite good to me! Can you also simulate things in it? For example, push/pull on a drawer and check if it's stuck somewhere?

It's extremely easy to use but very limited. It's good for mesurent. Forget about moving parts. It's very basic. Only advantage is you can move around and check mesure on your phone. Maybe Fusion 360 can do that since there's a phone version too .

SketchUp. It doesn't take many test drawings to get down the ones you'll use most.

Last time I looked, there was still a free desktop install from 2017. It's all online now.
