Angle Gradient Inclinometer vs Magnetometer+
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Angle Gradient Inclinometer
Easily measure tilt angles with this free protractor app. It displays inclination from 0 to 359 degrees, along with gradient percentages and angles summing to 180 or 360 degrees. Switch to theodolite mode to set a specified angle to zero.
- Measure tilt angles 0-359 degrees
- Display gradient percentage
- Show sum angles (180/360)
- Theodolite mode
- Set specified angle to zero

Simple tilt angle protractor free application that can easily measure tilt simply by tilting the device. The angle of inclination measured from 0 degree to 359 degrees, converted gradient (%), angle at which sum is 180 degrees / 360 degrees are displayed at the same time. You can switch to the theodolite, the specified angle can be set to 0 degree. ( 45 Degrees = Gradient 100 % )

Magnetometer+ turns your iPhone into a precise magnetic field meter with three purpose-built modes — and now keeps a full history of every reading. THREE MODES • Auto — radial gauge with raw total field magnitude. • Earth Field — total field with latitude band (low / normal / elevated / high). • Metal Detector — baseline-calibrated detection with intensity verdict (no metal / weak / detected / strong / large) and live haptic feedback. WHAT'S NEW • ⌖ Zero Calibration — capture your environment's device-internal field bias as the 0 reference, so subsequent readings show only deviation. Just like a real metal detector. • Haptic Feedback — Metal mode pulses faster and stronger as you approach ferrous objects. Toggle on/off from main screen. • Unit Toggle — switch between µT, mT and Gauss with a single tap. • GPS Tagging — optionally tag saved measurements with location coordinates. • Measurement History — every reading is auto-saved with a 7-day trend chart and insights like "+12% vs your 7-day average". • Notes & Favorites — add a note ("wall stud", "buried pipe") and star to any saved reading. • Compare Mode — pick two saved readings and view the difference side by side. • Share Result — share your current reading as an image. • CSV Export — share all your measurements as CSV for spreadsheets. CORE FEATURES • Real-time 3-axis magnetic field measurement • Kalman-smoothed sensor readings • Min/Max/Avg/Peak tracking with elapsed time • Sensitivity adjustment 0.5x – 2.0x • Total field magnitude + per-axis components • Reference library: Earth field bands, metal intensity classes HONEST TECH NOTE iPhone magnetometers are uncalibrated and include device-internal bias (~300–450 µT from speaker / motor / battery magnets). The ⌖ Zero button captures that bias so subsequent readings reflect only field changes in your environment — same workflow as a physical metal detector.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Magnetometer+ at 100% against Angle Gradient Inclinometer's 51%. Magnetometer+ also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 8 months). Angle Gradient Inclinometer's advantage is rating (4.4 vs 2.7) and ratings volume (295 vs 7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Angle Gradient Inclinometer holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Angle Gradient Inclinometer has 295 ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 51% of Angle Gradient Inclinometer's written reviews are positive against 100% of Magnetometer+'s, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Angle Gradient Inclinometer ships an update every 8 months, Magnetometer+ every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
