040 Level vs EasyLevel — What's the Difference?
We get it: EasyLevel has been around for a while, and a lot of campers know the app. We've been building our own sensor + app system out of Hamburg since 2026, because we wanted to do a few things differently. Here's the honest comparison — no marketing fluff, just features side by side.
Feature comparison at a glance

What EasyLevel does well
EasyLevel is an established Swedish solution. The app shows pitch and roll of your vehicle via a small BLE sensor you mount inside the camper. The concept works — otherwise EasyLevel wouldn't be this widespread. Sensor profiles for multiple vehicles are there, operating from outside the vehicle works too. If you're used to it, you'll be fine.
What we genuinely respect about EasyLevel: they helped open up the market and showed many campers that there's a smarter way than the classic spirit level on the dashboard.
What we do differently
We had a few items on our list that bugged us when camping ourselves:
1. Wedge calculation. You don't just see "2.3° off" — you see: "Left front wheel: a 4 cm wedge, roll up about 30 cm." That's the actual difference. No mental math, no guessing.
2. Sound + vibration. When you're standing outside next to the mover, you don't want to stare at a screen. We beep like a parking sensor — the closer to level, the faster. Hands free, eyes free.
3. Privacy, transparently. We don't track anything outside the app. No GPS, no location data, no advertising IDs. Just battery, temperature, and acceleration from the sensor. It's all in our privacy policy, you can read it.
4. Apple-style UX. Large surfaces, clean contrast, no industrial look. We want your dad to be able to use this — even if he's not exactly an app person.
Which one is better when?
Honestly: if you have EasyLevel and you're happy with it, stick with it. It works.
040 Level is for you if you:
- don't want to calculate which wedge goes where
- camp alone a lot and need hands-free feedback
- care about transparent privacy practices
- want a modern, calm UI (no industrial vibe)
- might need the magnifier mode for older eyes later
We don't believe there's THE one solution. You can test both apps — downloading them costs nothing.
Want to try both?
Grab our app on the App Store or Play Store and compare for yourself. You can get the 040 Level sensor at 040parts.com — and if you don't have one, you can also try the app in phone mode without hardware.
As of: 2026-05-09. EasyLevel is a registered trademark of a Swedish company — we respect their work and are building our own system in parallel. This comparison is based on publicly available information and may change with future updates.
