Metal detector - EMF Meter 1.0.1

Metal Detector is a mobile application that detects the presence of metal by measuring the electromagnetic field value. It operates using the device's built-in magnetic sensor or magnetometer. This sensor enables the detection of objects that generate magnetic fields, with greater magnetic field values indicating stronger metal presence. When a metal object such as steel or iron is nearby, the app will produce an EMF reading accompanied by a sound and vibration alert. Magnetic fields can be generated by electronic devices like phones, wiretaps, wires, sharp objects, metal screws, coins, and more.

The EMF meter or metal detector app allows users to identify metal objects using their mobile phone in a convenient and entertaining manner. Users can feel like detectives and surprise their friends with this utility.

The Metal Detector app works by detecting metals as all metals generate magnetic fields whose strength can be measured using an EMF Meter or EMF Detector. The natural magnetic field level (EMF) value is approximately 49 microteslas (μT) or 490 milli-gauss (mg), with a conversion factor of 1 μT = 10 mg.

The handheld metal detecting app functions by moving the device close to metal to detect changes in the magnetic field value (EMF).

• Key features:
• Provides visual and audio feedback
• Detects the strength of magnetic force fields on all three axes (x, y, z)
• Allows toggling audio beep sounds on/off
• Customize beep sounds according to preference
• Enables toggling vibration on/off
• Offers a graphical view of the magnetometer
• User-friendly interface
• Simple to operate
• Informs users if their phone lacks a magnetic sensor

The handheld metal detector or metal finder app is particularly useful for construction workers. It aids in locating hidden wires within walls and identifying the positions of metal studs. The app can also serve as a stud detector since studs are metallic and produce magnetic fields. The metal detector provides a graphical representation of these fields.

Users can utilize the app as a stud detector similarly; it detects magnetic fields generated by studs using the magnetic sensor. Some individuals might even use it for entertainment purposes as a body scanner. While it is not intended as a prank app, some users may find it entertaining.

The Metal Detector app is straightforward to use; users can adjust settings to toggle vibration and sound on/off and choose from various available beep sounds within the application.

• FAQ:
• Can the EMF detector accurately find all metals?
  The accuracy depends entirely on your device's magnetic sensor (magnetometer), which may vary across different devices.
• What if my device doesn’t support a magnetic sensor or magnetometer?
  If your device lacks a magnetic sensor or magnetometer, you cannot utilize the metal detector app.
• Can I employ the EMF Meter as a gold detector or detect silver or copper coins?
  No, the EMF detector or EMF Meter (metal finder) cannot identify gold, silver, or copper coins since they are classified as non-ferrous metals without magnetic fields. The metal finder exclusively works with metals and not with non-ferrous materials.

Precautions:

• - Not every smartphone features a magnetic sensor. If your device does not support this feature, the EMF detector or metal detecting app will be incompatible with your device.
• - Accuracy is contingent on your device's built-in magnetic sensor.
• - The metal detecting app cannot detect non-ferrous metals like gold, silver, or aluminum due to their lack of magnetic fields.
• - Radio waves emitted by laptops, computers, TVs, and radio signals can impact the magnetic sensor's readings. It is advisable to avoid such areas while using the metal detecting or EMF detecting functions.
• - If your phone's sensor fails to accurately detect metal, kindly note that the developer cannot be held responsible in such instances.
