I was a very surprised because I’ve used it and android and it didn’t seem to work as good. And I would recommend this to anyone who has a need for it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-08-13, version 4.2* Doesn’t work ### 1/5 — PREDATORY APP *2026-07-29, version 4.2* The app makes you sign up for a free trial and then quickly shifts to an outrageous $7 / WEEK. Obviously leveraging this short timeline to extract money from those who forgot to cancel and also preventing any refunds. These people are vultures. ### 1/5 — Detects cash very well *2026-05-04, version 4.2* This used to be a free app and I've had it on my phone for ages. Very useful at detecting metal in walls. Now the developers have realised they can make money from paranoid people looking for supposed spy cams in rental apartments. So it's no longer any use to me and I'm deleting it. Shame on all these people who try to turn their useful little apps into a blatant cash grab. ### 1/5 — Не качать *2026-04-19* Был детектор, стал платной помойкой за 500₽ в неделю **Developer response:** Your input is valuable to us!

Zero help. ### 1/5 — Не работает *2026-02-21* Показывает рандомные значения **Developer response:** Your feedback is important to us. If you need further assistance or have any questions, please reach out at hello.metaldetector@gmail.com. ### 1/5 — Absolute Garbage *2026-02-14, version 4.2* Downloaded and installed on my iPhone 14 Pro and couldn’t get it to detect anything other than the magnet in my watch band. The metal detector couldn’t detect a piece of steel that I held against the phone. I tried this app hoping it would help me locate AC wiring in a wall, but it wouldn’t even detect a live extension cord. Now I hope that after I cancel they won’t try to charge me the $5 fee. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cle *2026-08-18, version 4.2* Fere ### 5/5 — BAHARALDEIN *2026-05-08, version 4.2* Ahmed ### 5/5 — When it was free *2026-04-27, version 4.2* Love the free play it’s accurate all the time thank you so much for not charging 🙏🙏🙏 ### 5/5 — Testing will tell effectiveness *2026-04-16, version 4.2* New to the application, but it does offer multiple testing options and is user friendly. Testing will answer the question of how accurate and effective the application works. ### 5/5 — Metal *2026-03-20, version 4.2* Does the job ### 5/5 — Sai *2026-02-18, version 4.2* Sai ### 5/5 — Thanks to the app, gives up hope! *2025-11-28, version 4.2* We lost my husband’s ring on the beach yesterday, and last night there was a heavy rain. We felt hopeless that we might never found it again. It’s not just about money but it was symbolic. This morning I came to the beach, saw no sign of a ring, felt hopeless, then I came with the idea of metal detectors app, it shows higher value around some area, I digged into the sand and found my husband’s ring! ### 5/5 — So good *2025-11-14, version 4.2* It’s the first time I use this application, but I hope it will work perfectly. ### 5/5 — Great *2025-08-18, version 4.2* Really good helped find my grandmas lost phone deserves a 5 star ### 5/5 — Arabella *2025-08-10, version 4.2* Olivia --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
