Confusing to figure out

Once I was able to figure out how to use the app and find my acceleration it was fine. But it gave me my acceleration in g’s so I had to do some math to get my actual acceleration.

Good But Confusing

The app gave me my acceleration, but it was not clear with how to find your acceleration using the app. This app is good if you know how to use it, but I didn’t and could not find any directions. I had to get help just to find out how to see my acceleration. Not beginner friendly.

Decent

We had an iPhone 5 SE. We tilted the phone to test it, we expected it to do what it did although it wasn't as accurate. It was relatively difficult to use, and I suggested to Torio on how to use the app.We had an iPhone 5 SE.

Difficult and Not Intuitive

I couldn't figure out how to use the app let alone test it because there were no directions and the app is not intuitive. I tried to walk and measure my acceleration but it was difficult to understand the numbers given. Maybe an instructional video would me helpful.

Good but confusing

I have an iPhone 5s, and I tested this app by walking around a room while increasing and decreasing my speed. It did not work as expected because I expected it to be easier to use. It would have been a lot better if there was a tutorial or instructions.

FAQ

What does the AccelMeter app do?

This app provides a 3D graphical visualization of the current acceleration acting on your device. It allows you to measure the strength and direction of acceleration, including gravitational forces and g-forces experienced during movement.

What are the different display modes available?

The app offers five display modes: Absolute Mode for reverse iPhone acceleration, X-Rotation, Y-Rotation, and Z-Rotation for visualizing rotation around each axis with numerical angle indicators, and Relative Mode to show the difference between absolute acceleration and a compensation vector.

Is AccelMeter free to use?

Based on the provided information, AccelMeter is a paid application. It does not feature in-app purchases or advertisements, indicating a one-time purchase model.

What devices is AccelMeter compatible with?

The description mentions its availability on the App Store, suggesting compatibility with iOS devices like the iPhone and iPod. Specific iOS version compatibility is not detailed but it utilizes the device's built-in accelerometer and magnetometer.

How can I use AccelMeter for measuring car acceleration?

You can place your iPhone steady in your car, select Relative Mode, and zero it while stationary. The app will then display the current g-forces experienced as your car accelerates, allowing you to measure the g-force of your vehicle's acceleration.
