### 4/5 — Works Well for Electrical Leakage

*2022-10-03*

I've used this as many places as I can think of and if there's emf leakage it always finds it.
I'm not crazy about the interface but, hey, it works!

### 4/5 — Too many add notifications

*2020-06-25*

Good app really works but it asks you to buy add blocker way to much

### 4/5 — Legit

*2020-03-09*

Seems legit so far.

### 2/5 — Okay, but not worth the effort

*2016-07-11*

The app functions well, but that doesn't make up for everything that is wrong with it. It is constantly asking you to let it use your map location (why?), upgrade to pro, or leave a 5 star rating on the App Store, even if you've already left a rating. Other than that, the app crashes every third time you try and start it, and it only runs for a little over a minute before it crashes anyway. The meter function works, but it isn't worth the miles of red tape you have to cut through just to get a good reading. I am so glad I didn't pay for this. If I did, I would be very, very upset.

### 1/5 — Apple please read

*2015-04-10*

Terrible just terrible they tried to make me pay $129 for no reason

### 1/5 — Useless

*2015-03-15, version 2.2*

Responds to gsensor and not EMF.Dev also tries to scam you out of £70

### 1/5 — Less than a cup of coffee?!

*2015-03-01, version 2.2*

Do NOT click the "OK" button to upgrade. I've never seen a cup of coffee that cost $100. The app does appear to register data from the phones 3 axis magnetometer but that "upgrade" price is obscene.

### 3/5 — Not even real!

*2015-01-23, version 2.2*

Honestly I knew that this wasn't even real, I mean come on its a free app on a phone. I mean if you so much move the thing "reacts" to something. The only reason why I gave it three stars is because it's fun to mess with in my personal opinion. Does it work hell no, in fact I think none of these EMF detectors work! But if you you really want to buy the "upgraded" version go ahead but it's NOT a real EMF detector, DUH.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2014-12-19, version 2.2*

Not working

### 1/5 — Idk

*2014-12-14, version 2.2*

### 1/5 — Rip of never will change 👿👿👿👿👿👿

*2019-04-17*

So I got this cause I like scary stuff but A minute later it asked if I wanted to get the full app for 1.99to get three things I tapped  it I was like OK this won’t be that much but then I realized it was two dollars for three things  shortly after it shut me out I came back in again and asked me to same question and again it shut me out when I said no and again it keeps doing the same thing so I deleted it for anybody  for anybody Who looked at it don’t get it👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👿👺👺👺👺👺👺👺👺😡😡😡😡😡😡😡☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️😠😠😠😠😠😡😡😡😡😤😤😤😤😤👿👿👿👿👿👺👺👺👺👺💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

### 1/5 — Worthless waste of$

*2018-04-22*

So for $2 i can't complain to much but i would expect audio to function also the base line is inaccurate to the other apps i use and zeroing does not hold.  Good for a joke bead for actual functioning.  I want my $2 back

### 1/5 — Skip it.

*2018-02-02*

Skip it.

### 1/5 — Conflicting results

*2017-02-08*

I have a paid version on my iPhone and an unpaid version on my iPad. The results are so different and conflicting that I can't use this app

### 1/5 — Fake

*2016-01-15, version 2.4*

It's fake it uses the tilt sensor on your phone

### 1/5 — Doesn't open

*2015-12-19*

It crashed every time I tried to open it, so I didn't even get a chance to use it. Immediately deleted from phone

### 1/5 — Total crap

*2015-08-12, version 2.2*

The product it self works but my main issue is the $119 price tag which only adds useless features and removes ad's. That a joke. Shame on this company. Plenty of free or low priced products of the same nature are available.

### 1/5 — REALLY

*2015-07-23, version 2.2*

Who pays $129 for a cup of coffee???

### 1/5 — What's with the trick

*2015-05-22, version 2.2*

It says $199.00 for a up date the cost of a coffee lol come on ware do you get your coffee lol

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2024-11-20*

If you can’t afford an EMF meter - this is a great indicator of where the problems are at home!

### 5/5 — Happy

*2021-05-06*

I’m impressed with the sensitivity of this app and how well it works , I’m a real person not a generated review if it sucked I would say so but it’s good and worth downloading I use the free version 👍🇺🇸

### 5/5 — No hassles

*2020-11-09*

Works just fine 
Thanx,

### 5/5 — Great tool

*2020-09-26, version 2.4*

Absolutely amazing app, I use it for work and it always finds any electronics hidden or nearby 
And it’s handy for finding spirits too , don’t underestimate this handy app it’s easy to use and simple to understand 
5 STARS ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ FROM ME

### 5/5 — Shockingly Valid

*2020-08-23*

After reviewing many EMF Detectors; some useless and others marginal, it turns out that this one not only senses the ‘Magnetic’ aspects of EMF, but the ‘Electrical’ as well.  I found that the left side of the Max10 iPhone (mine) is the pickup side of the phone’s EMF capability.  So...placing the iPhone next to a magnetic source (Speakers, Computers, Magnets, etc.), the APP responds accordingly.  Surprisingly, I tested it against high electrical current wiring such as an Air Conditioning Unit or Coffee Maker.  When turned ON and applying the APP, it registers the ‘Electrical’ Current Flow of the EMF APP.  Yahoo!

### 5/5 — Recommend. I’m really pleased with this

*2019-12-19*

So, I got this app, thinking that it would be fake, but so far, I don’t think it is... before I download this app, I had downloaded tons of different apps before this, trying and trying to get a real emf app. How I usually test if these are real, is by putting it next to a light, or something that would produce a lot of electricity, (like putting it next to a light bulb that is turned on) and then the end number should spike (be a higher number) and so far, after testing this app a few times at different electric sources, it spiked at every one. Over all, I’m pretty pleased with this app. Thank you. Definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Googled App Fan

*2019-11-05*

Unlike some other electromagnetism meters when you’re at a hot spot and you know it this app gives you a reading and I don’t think it can read our thoughts yet.
So it must work.

### 5/5 — An eye-opener

*2016-05-05, version 2.4*

Easy to use, clear to read. Gives some shockingly high readings when near a large computer.

### 5/5 — Hrc

*2016-01-31*

Hey, works very well. Great app!

### 5/5 — Works well

*2015-11-04*

Very little learning curve. Test your surroundings to get a base line reading then conduct your test. Your base line will always be a little higher with this app then with a emf tool or at least mine was due to the phone putting out a little magnetics of its on. I use this app regularly now with our investigations.
