About this app

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

<< 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
- Sharing GPS location
- Qibla finder, Car locator

* 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 needed a metal detector to find the pins that mark the corners of my lot so I could resolve a property line dispute with a cranky old neighbor. After downloading several metal detector apps, I found this one to be the most accurate and have the best user interface. I probably looked a little crazy sweeping my cell phone, taped to a wooden pole, back and forth in the backyard, but in less than 10 minutes, I found and exposed the 3 pins I was looking for. Check and mate! Thanks metal detector.

Yes it works: it beeps with the cover of a can, it's all i had to test it with for the moment. However, i thought it would give me more distant in the detection.....like 3ft from a metal, but instead it beeps only within a range of about 6ins & detects through the camera. I can still get by with it & thanks to the nice lady who share on the video, bye.....

In all reality, this is not a true metal detector. It's a ferromagnetic detector. It will only find ferromagnetic materials, like cobalt, iron , and nickel. It will not respond to brass, gold, silver. etc. If it was my app. I would advertise it as an EMF detector. Since some people (Ghostbusters) believe that disembodied spirits give off electromagnetic fields, the Paranormal community would go crazy over such a valuable app for detecting spirits. (No, I'm not a Ghostbuster) alternate marketing
