Not good

I was using the metal detector And it was working perfectly fine I tried it on metal hammer and then I was playing with it for a bit just around my siblings and then I had in just air and it started beeping and I close the app out about 10 times and it was still beeping at nothing so thatโ€™s not a good.

Nice

It detected metal for real! Itโ€™s amazing

Full signal all the time

It just gives full signal all the time even when not close to any metal. No phone case or anything metal nearby but it still sounds the alarm.

App support link broken

I just downloaded this app and it constantly beeps. I get similar results from other detector apps. I think it might be related to my model (13 peo max) or residue from the magnet case i normally keep the phone in. I doubt it's the app. That said the app support link goes to an info page for another app.

FAQ

What does the Metal Detector (PRO) app do?

This app uses your iPhone's magnetometer to simulate the detection of ferromagnetic metal objects. It provides visual and audio feedback to indicate proximity to such items, offering an entertaining experience for users.

How does the app detect metal?

The app utilizes the iPhone's magnetometer to measure the magnetic field. When the device is placed near ferromagnetic objects like speakers, phones, or keys, the magnetometer detects changes in the magnetic field, which the app interprets as a metal detection.

Is this a real metal detector?

No, this app is intended for entertainment purposes only and does not provide true metal detector functionality. It simulates metal detection using the phone's sensors for fun and amusement.

What are the key features of the app?

Key features include visual and audio feedback, adjustable sensitivity levels for the alarm, the ability to turn audio feedback on or off, a nice user interface, and a fun mode that can be triggered using the proximity sensor.

Can I use this app to find real treasures?

This app is designed for entertainment and fun, not for serious treasure hunting. While it simulates metal detection, it does not have the capability to find actual buried or hidden metal objects in the real world.
