Works great, my only change would be to mention clearly on app start that it doesn't use phone cameras, and that it uses the phone's hardware light sensor. That's I'm the readme, which is easily accessible, but there's no prompt to read it :) I used this to get an average of the brightness in my home office. This let me set the screen brightness to match, which is helping me reduce eye strain.

I don't give 5-Star reviews unless the app, the service, or the product is truly exceptional. Lux is one example. Near perfect user interface, it simultaneously reports min, max, and average light levels in Footcandles or Lux (1 Fc/M^2) and is easily calibrated if you have access to a reference light source. Most homes have very poor lighting designs, Lux let's you quantify the problem, and with that, creating a solution is much easier.

The free version is unbelievable in what all and how accurate it seems. Now everywhere I go I have a light meter. I work as a traveling inspector, and the number of tools I sometimes need is an unbelievable number of different tools to have on me. Proper lighting is the most important thing to get right in my field. Now,I always have one handy at the ready.
