About this app

Metal Detector is in the 3rd set of the Smart Tools collection. EMF detector

<< Metal Detector apps require a magnetic sensor (magnetometer). If this app does not work properly, please check the specifications of your device. >>

This app measures magnetic field with an embedded magnetic sensor.
The magnetic field level (EMF) in nature is about 49μT(micro tesla) or 490mG(milli gauss); 1μT = 10mG. When any metal(steel, iron) is near, magnetic field level will increase.

Usage is simple: Open the app, and move it around. The magnetic field level will constantly fluctuate. That's it!

You can find electrical wires in the walls (like a stud detector) and iron pipes in the ground.

A lot of ghost hunters had downloaded this app, and they had experimented as a ghost detector.

The accuracy depends entirely on your magnetic sensor (magnetometer). Note that it is affected by electronic equipment (TV, PC, microwave) due to electromagnetic waves.

* Main features:
- Alarm level
- Beep sound
- Sound effect on/off
- Material design


* Pro version added features:
- No ads
- Compass

* Do you want more tools?
download [Smart Compass Pro] and [Smart Tools 2] package.

For more information, watch YouTube and visit the blog. Thank you.

** Metal detector cannot detect gold, silver and coins made of copper. They are classified as non-ferrous metal that has no magnetic field.

I'm actually so shocked. this isn't some stupid fake prank app, this actually does work. My sister lost a necklace and I was able to find it, in-between the couch cushions with this tool. It looks like it uses the phone's antenna, and I got higher readings putting metal near the corner of my phone. the different styles and sounds are cute, but the main purpose is so much better than going and buying a whole metal detector when you can do it with a 0$ app. 5 stars!!

Perfect. Extraordinary. Thanks. If I find anything and sell it, I'll definitely look for the upgrade or donation button. It does very well to find a large metallic collection underground. Unmistakable.

5/5 no BS just use your phone magnetometers to read magnetic fields, put it near where I know there's a live wire lit up like crazy, no more buying cheap stud finder and still not being sure if I'm drilling into a live wire or not!
