Metal Detector – MagnoScan turns your Android device into a powerful magnetic field detector using the built-in magnetometer sensor.
Easily detect nearby metal objects and measure magnetic field strength in real time. Whether you're curious about your surroundings, locating hidden ferrous objects, or exploring how magnetic fields behave, this app gives you a fast and intuitive way to do it.
🔍 Key Features
Real-Time Metal Detection
Monitor magnetic field strength (µT) live as you move your device. Detect changes caused by nearby metal objects such as steel or iron.
Accurate Magnetic Field Meter
Displays precise X, Y, and Z sensor values along with total magnitude, giving you a complete view of the magnetic environment.
Smart Detection Alerts
Get notified with sound and vibration when the magnetic field exceeds a defined threshold.
Calibration Mode
Set your current environment as a baseline and improve detection accuracy by filtering background interference.
Classic Detector Design
Enjoy a clean grayscale interface inspired by real metal detectors, with analog-style indicators and smooth animations.
Custom Themes (More Coming Soon)
Start with the “Classic Detector” theme and get ready for future visual styles like neon, military, and sci-fi.
Sensitivity Control
Adjust detection sensitivity to match your environment and use case.
Live Signal Visualization
View signal strength through dynamic bars or animated indicators for a more immersive experience.
📱 How It Works
This app uses your phone’s magnetometer sensor to measure magnetic field changes. Metals like iron and steel disturb the magnetic field, allowing detection when you move your device nearby.
