MDfieldmapperPro vs Cam Detector Pro
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
MDfieldmapperPro
This app transforms metal detecting into a precise survey. It uses your iPhone's LiDAR and motion sensors to create a live 3D map of your detector's path and the ground. Track coil position, height, and signal response for detailed analysis and documentation.
- Live 3D coil path mapping
- Coil height tracking via LiDAR
- Signal response analysis
- Local data storage
- Survey data export (SQLite, point clouds)
- Wired audio detector connection

MD Field Mapper Pro turns metal detecting into real survey work. Using your iPhone’s LiDAR, motion sensors, and a wired audio connection to your detector, it builds a live 3D map of your coil path and the ground beneath it. See where you’ve swung, how high the coil was, and how the signal changed along each pass. The app tracks your sweep path in a local map view, with every point tagged by coil position, coil height, and audio response. A dedicated profile view shows an oscilloscope-style trace of signal versus distance, so you can spot repeatable hits and noisy zones as you move. Coil height is estimated from LiDAR geometry, helping you keep sweeps consistent across the survey area. MD Field Mapper Pro is designed for use with a wired audio connection from your detector’s control unit to the iPhone. The app focuses on clean, cable-only input for the most reliable signal capture and timing. No cloud connection is required in the field; all data is stored locally on your device until you choose to export it. When you’re done, MD Field Mapper Pro can export a complete survey package, including the SQLite database, control points, sweep lines, and LiDAR-derived point clouds. These exports can be reviewed later on your computer or shared for further analysis, mapping, or archiving. Whether you’re scouting a new permission, revisiting a productive site, or documenting finds for research, MD Field Mapper Pro helps you treat every hunt like a survey line—not just a walk.
Cam Detector Pro

Cam Detector Pro provides a set of manual scan tools that help users review possible indicators such as lens-like reflections, IR points, nearby Bluetooth devices, Wi-Fi/network information, and environmental sensor patterns. The app is designed as an informational aid for manual inspection and does not guarantee detection of hidden cameras or surveillance devices. Results may vary depending on the environment, hardware, and device capabilities. Key features: • Lens review for possible lens-like glints • IR review tools on supported devices • Acoustic scan for unusual high-frequency patterns • Bluetooth nearby-device review • Wi-Fi and network review tools • Magnetic and wired environment checks • Simple interface for quick manual review Important: • Results are informational only • Nearby devices are not necessarily cameras • Sensor readings and audio patterns do not confirm hidden devices • Manual inspection and user judgment are required

Verdict
The clearest difference is device support: Cam Detector Pro at 3 against MDfieldmapperPro's 1. On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
