Magnetick

Magnetick turns your iPhone into a precision magnetic field meter. If you've ever wondered whether your watch, tools, or jewelry have become magnetized, Magnetick gives you a clear, glanceable answer in seconds. Hold your iPhone near any object and Magnetick reads the surrounding magnetic field in microtesla (ΞΌT) using your device's built-in magnetometer β the same sensor your compass uses, but exposed in a way you can actually read and interpret. KEY FEATURES β’ Live magnetic field reading β a single, easy-to-read number, updated in real time β’ Guided mode β Magnetick stabilizes its baseline, then tells you plainly when something nearby is affecting the field β’ Real-time chart β watch how the field changes as you move your phone around an object β’ Built-in sensor map β Magnetick knows where the magnetometer chip sits inside your specific iPhone model, so you can hold the right part of the phone close to what you're testing β’ Beautiful dark interface designed to be readable at a glance WHO IT'S FOR β’ Watch owners checking whether their mechanical watch has been magnetized (a common cause of timekeeping errors) HOW TO USE 1. Open Magnetick and let the reading stabilize for a few seconds 2. Slowly move your iPhone close to the object you want to test 3. Watch the number β a sharp rise means the object is generating or carrying a magnetic field PRIVACY Magnetick reads only the magnetometer sensor and runs entirely on your device. No data is collected, transmitted, or stored. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Magnetick at none against SG Bus Coming's 1. Magnetick also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.6). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
