About Square Inches

It is commonly used in the United States for measuring small areas like fabric swatches, screen sizes, or printed materials. A standard business card is about 6 in², and a typical smartphone screen might be 15-20 in². This unit remains prevalent in American manufacturing, printing, and retail.
