EMF Meter helps you monitor electromagnetic field levels and Bluetooth exposure from one simple dashboard. Use your iPhone’s magnetometer to track EMF changes in real time, then scan nearby Bluetooth devices to understand signal strength and exposure levels around you. Track your environment at home, work, or while traveling with clear meters, safety zones, and simple exposure insights. Key Features: Real-Time EMF Meter Live electromagnetic field readings in microteslas (ΞΌT) Uses your device magnetometer Auto-calibration for local magnetic baseline Total EMF safety meter with clear status levels Bluetooth EMF Exposure Scan nearby Bluetooth devices View Bluetooth signal strength in dBm See Bluetooth exposure percentage Safety levels: SAFE, CAUTION, UNSAFE Detailed nearby device list Safety Levels SAFE: Low exposure CAUTION: Noticeable exposure UNSAFE: Strong exposure DANGER: Very high EMF levels for magnetic field readings Visual EMF Analytics Glowing animated safety background Radial meter with color-coded zones Lowest, average, and highest session readings Simple exposure tables Clean dark and light themes Perfect For: Monitoring EMF levels at home Checking workspaces and desks Comparing rooms and nearby electronics Reviewing nearby Bluetooth signal exposure Health-conscious users who want simple EMF awareness How It Works: EMF Meter uses your iPhone’s built-in magnetometer to measure electromagnetic field variation around your device. For Bluetooth, the app scans nearby wireless sources and estimates exposure from signal strength. Privacy: All readings are processed on your device. No ads, no subscriptions, and no unnecessary tracking. Note: Phone sensors are useful for awareness and comparison, but they are not a replacement for certified scientific or medical equipment. For professional safety testing, use calibrated instruments and consult qualified experts.

About

Live Spectrum Analyzer

Read full description

Live Spectrum Analyzer is a real-time audio visualization tool for musicians, students, teachers, sound makers, and anyone who wants to see sound clearly. Use the microphone for live input, or import an audio file from Files to inspect how frequency, amplitude, pitch, and dynamics change over time. Switch between waveform, FFT, sonogram, spectrum bars, VU meter, pitch, octave bands, peak hold, envelope, waterfall, phase, Lissajous, and XY Scope views. Each mode is designed for quick visual reading while you listen, tune, practice, demonstrate acoustics, compare sounds, or check a recording. The app also provides practical analysis readouts, including RMS, peak level, decibels, detected pitch, strongest frequency peaks, spectral centroid, zero crossing rate, dynamic range, estimated BPM, beat strength, mel bands, chroma, noise floor, and clipping status. Results are intended as helpful visual references rather than certified measurement data. Key features: β€’ Live microphone waveform and spectrum visualization β€’ Import audio files for playback and local visual analysis β€’ Waveform, FFT, sonogram, bars, VU, pitch, waterfall, phase, and scope modes β€’ Adjustable gain, time window, FFT floor, sonogram brightness, contrast, and speed β€’ Pitch reference, tolerance, microphone gain, and noise gate settings β€’ Record audio locally, review saved recordings, and share or delete files β€’ Capture visualization snapshots as PNG images β€’ Local-first workflow with no account required Subscription and purchase information: The app offers a free experience and optional Pro access. Actual prices, trials, promotions, and availability are shown in the App Store. Privacy and data information: Your microphone input, imported audio, recordings, snapshots, and analysis results stay on your device by default. The app does not require an account and does not upload your media to a server operated by us.
