Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Smart Metal Detector & EMF
This tool uses your phone's magnetic sensor to detect nearby metal by measuring magnetic field strength. It alerts you with vibrations and sounds when metal is close, and can help locate hidden devices or electrical wires.
- Detects metal using magnetic sensor
- Measures magnetic field strength (EMF)
- Vibration and sound alerts
- Adjustable sensitivity
- Locates electrical wires and pipes
- Scans for hidden devices

Metal Detector is an iOS application that detects the presence of metal nearby by measuring the magnetic field value. This useful tool uses the magnetic sensor built into your mobile device and shows the magnetic field level in μT (microtesla). The magnetic field level (EMF) in nature is about 49 μT (microtesla) or 490 mG (milligauss); 1 μT = 10 mG. If any metal is nearby, the value of the magnetic field will increase. The metal detector allows you to identify any metal object in the area because all metals generate a magnetic field whose strength can be measured with this tool. The usage is simple: launch this app on your mobile device and move it around. You will see that the magnetic field level shown on the screen is constantly fluctuating. Colorful lines represent the three dimensions and the numbers on top show the value of the magnetic field level (EMF). The chart will increase, and the device will vibrate and make sounds, announcing that the metal is close. You can change the sensitivity of vibration and sound effects in the settings. You might use the Metal Detector to find electrical wires in walls (like a stud finder), iron pipes on the ground... or pretend it's a ghost detector and scare someone! You can also use this magnetometer as a scanner to find hidden devices – cameras, microphones, or voice recorders! Metal Detector is available in the language set on your phone – now also in Russian, Spanish, and Indonesian! You can also find it in Portuguese, Turkish, and French. Now the app also has its versions in Arabic and Farsi! If you enjoy the app and want even more – you can get a pro version! Check it out in the application menu. The accuracy of the tool depends entirely on the sensor in your mobile device. Please note that due to electromagnetic waves, the magnetic sensor is affected by electronic equipment. Metal Detector cannot detect gold, silver, and coins made of copper. They are classified as non-ferrous, which has no magnetic field. But maybe you will find a metal box with some treasure inside! Try this useful tool and other apps from the Netigen Tools series! Attention! Not every model of a smartphone has a magnetic field sensor. If your device does not have one, the application will not work. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Reduce the weight of your toolbox – all you need is your smartphone. Also known as a spirit level or buble level – but the name doesn’t matter. What matters is the fact, that with the help of this device you can easily determine whether a given surface is really horizontal. Used by professionals: builders, stonemasons, carpenters, inspectors, metalworkers, but also by ordinary DIY enthusiasts – our spirit level will certainly help you with any home repairs. Our device is based on bull's eye level (also known as circular bubble) which measures the level simultaneously in two dimensions – horizontal and vertical. Netigen Utilities: Level checks not only whether a surface is horizontal, but also shows the angle of inclination. If the surface is horizontal, the ball, shown on the screen, will be in the exact center of the circle and the center will turns white. It works just like a physical device! Ease of use, precision and a unique design distinguish our level, comparing to other similar applications. Recommended for those who appreciate precise tools and job well done.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Smart Metal Detector & EMF at 4.4 against Smart Level's 3.5. Smart Metal Detector & EMF also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 12 months) and ratings volume (270 vs 2). Smart Level's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
