Note that different technologies your developer might be using all measure text differently. Many UI platforms include a certain amount of built-in buffer around text to accommodate things like accents, descenders, and italics -- and the size of that buffer/padding area may vary. And some platforms position text from the upper-left while others position text from the baseline.
So the distances & offsets a developer will need to use often won't exactly match the measurements XD gives you. In this case, it might be better to manually figure out optical distances (e.g. distance from bottom of button to baseline of text; distance from top of button to top of "typical" lowercase letters like "o" or "e"). Then your developer can tweak the numbers on their platform until the optical offsets at runtime match what's in your design.
If you want, we could turn this into a feature request to have the measurement tool in XD give you these more optically precise measurements for text instead of the 'outer box' border measurements it gives you today. Would that work well for your workflow?

Could you provide a bit more information about what’s going wrong? Perhaps you can upload a photo of your phone and design so we can see what the issue.

Are you using XD's USB connection feature, or are you uploading a shared prototype from XD and then going to the link in your phone's browser?
Also, what font is the text using?

Is there anything missing aside from spread (both positive & negative) and inner shadow?
If not, maybe we can turn this into a request focused specifically on spread. We already have separate requests for these other shadow features:
* Inner shadow: https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/15631440-inner-shadow
* Multiple shadows (and fills/strokes): https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/12956715-multiple-fills-borders-and-shadows -

When dragging gradient endpoints in canvas, they will snap to the edges and centerlines of the shape's bounds. This makes it relatively easy to get 0 or 90 degree angles -- no need to hold down Shift.
But two areas that would be improved by this feature request are:
- Precisely setting other angles, like 45 degrees
- Switching between 0 and 90 degrees even faster, without having to drag each endpoint and wait for it to snapAdminPeter Flynn

A bit similar to https://adobexd.uservoice.com/forums/353007/suggestions/13355802-tab-through-repeat-grid-text-layers, except this one tabs though objects that are siblings (instead of equivalents in each grid cell), and it tabs through all objects instead of just editing text.

We’re crafting a purely UWP experience, which means following UWP design guidelines. We hate to disappoint, but it’s unlikely that we’ll be moving in the direction of including a top menu bar any time soon, as UWP removes the top menu bar entirely, pushing file operations into the hamburger menu and object commands into the property inspector and the context menu.

Tweaked title (was "Measurements is WRONG")
