Meh could be way better

I used it and obviously phones can’t detect radiation so I put it near a high power magnet…. Didn’t work, in the sun…… didn’t work

Literally Doo doo

This app works, but you need to hook it up to a real Geiger Counter in order for it to work! I thought the whole point of the app was to not need an external device! This thing is a big fat pile of doo doo!
