About this app

THIS APP REQUIRES HARDWARE! Giving one star rating without telling me reason is stupid. I cannot read peoples minds so please rate with explaining whats wrong so I can actually solve problem!

NOTE that his is only meant for radiation detection NOT for EMF (Electromotive force) or which is known also as electromagnetic force. There's no phone with build in Geiger counter in normal markets so you need hardware. EMF however is a chip detecting Electromotive forces which cannot detect radiation. Do not mix these two different subjects.

Nuclear Radiation Detector front end application. To use this application you need your diy Geiger counter or existing Geiger counter with Arduino connectivity supported. I made my own from very inexpensive kit which gives you "detection of 20mR/h ~ 120mR/h of gamma rays and 100 ~ 1800 off variables / points / cm 2 of the soft beta ray." more information on below tutorial link.

Tutorial for setting up your own device is here; http://www.nitramite.com/radiation-detector.html
If you want to find Arduino code right away, it's here: https://github.com/norkator/radiation-detector-arduino

Features
• Show visually with colors CPM and uSv/h readings.
• Radiation Map which is a mapping feature using Google Maps. Now you can start mapping radiation levels on map around areas.
• Application is maintained and dependencies are kept up to date.

Hardware requirements
• Any Arduino capable radiation Geiger counter kit or device.
Hardware code: https://github.com/norkator/radiation-detector-arduino

App permissions
• Internet connection.

To all the " bad and fake " reviews, do just a little bit of reading in the description first. This app paired with the Arduino Geiger counter is fantastic, I have been testing it for a few weeks now and I can say it is amazing. Some code for for a OLED display for a stand alone unit with the Bluetooth would be a game changer, logging , tracking, and line graph work without issues. Amazing job , great work !!!

Thanks for taking time to read description what many people dont do. "Some code for for a OLED display for a stand alone unit with the Bluetooth would be a game changer" if you want me do code? I can, I have small i2c oled screen modules around.

Yes it works fine, I have the same setup, but the app needs more work(the click sound is odd, pls. put a proper geiger sound) and maybe dose feature with time, date, and amount of exposure. And the price is a bit high, I'm going to buy it but after u fix the sound and add more futures for that price. Tanks and keep it up.

Edit2: hey have you sent email or seen this message? Edit: can you describe more in detail how you see that "dose feature with time, date, and amount of exposure" because I am not sure exactly how it should function. My email: nitramite@outlook.com

Thank you for all the help. No BS. Other apps are fake and CAN NOT detect or measure radiation. You need an external device and it is essential for the safety of your family in the event of..... I have purchased other devices for hundreds of dollars and this is more affective and consistant. It has also been a great project for the kids. It is affordable considering a cheap one prebuilt from Amazon is 400.00 and you will never understand it in depth as you will when you build it from a kit.
