I know there are several apps available for measuring distances on a map - but this one actually looks good :D
It uses the Google Maps API v2 with all the cool features like 3D models etc. from the official Google Maps app. Additionally, Maps Measure also takes advantage of the new KitKat "translucent system decor" feature (transparent status & navigation bar).
You can access the "drawer menu tab" (see screenshots) by swiping from the left like in Google Maps or by clicking on the text in the top center of the screen. On tablets, the bar is always visible in landscape mode.
Otherwise, using the app is as easy as it can be: just tab on the Map to add a point, tab again to add a second and the app will tell you the air-line distance between those too. Add a third and the map can measure the area (if you chose so from the menu).
Hidden feature: Longpress on the trash icon to delete all points :D
Oh, and it's open source, like all apps requesting the INTERNET permission should be...
