Stud + Metal Scanner vs Stud Finder

Detect studs, screws, nails, and measure magnetic fields (EMF) instantly with your iPhone. Two powerful modes in one app: Stud Finder & Magnetometer — works entirely on your iPhone. Perfect for DIY enthusiasts, home improvement projects, tech experiments, educational purposes, contractors, engineers, and anyone curious about magnetic fields or hidden metal. Stud Finder Mode Locate wall studs, screws, nails, metal pipes, and hidden metal objects behind drywall, plaster, and panel walls. Accurate readings using your iPhone’s built-in magnetic sensor. Pro Tip: For best results, hold the bottom third of the back near the wall — that’s where the sensor is. Pause scans to note field values for precision. Re-zero the sensor anytime for accurate readings. Detect studs, screws, nails, wall anchors, and metal pipes for safer drilling and renovations. Ideal for homeowners, contractors, interior designers, and DIY enthusiasts. Perfect for hanging shelves, picture frames, cabinets, mirrors, or TVs without guesswork. Magnetometer Mode (EMF Detection) Measure magnetic fields in real time. Graph view shows field changes instantly. Detect EMF levels, metal objects, and magnetic anomalies for experiments or tech projects. Monitor magnetic field trends and peaks on the live graph. Perfect for students, engineers, hobbyists, or anyone exploring EMF. Ideal for classrooms, STEM labs, science fairs, or home experiments. Dual-Mode Functionality Find studs and detect magnetic fields (EMF). Perfect for home DIY, construction, school labs, STEM experiments, or curiosity-driven exploration. Provides actionable, real-time feedback for home improvement and tech applications. Why Users Love Stud + Metal Scanner Clean interface for scanning walls or visualizing magnetic fields. Real-time feedback ensures you never miss studs, screws, nails, or metal objects. Graph mode provides instant visual confirmation of field changes. Safe and reliable for home improvement, DIY, and tech explorations. Lightweight and fast Perfect for casual users, contractors, and technical professionals. Ideal for detecting hidden studs, metal objects, or performing STEM experiments. Pro Tips Pause scans to record readings and plan your project. Move your iPhone slowly along walls for optimal detection. Use Magnetometer mode to explore EMF and hidden metals. Re-zero the sensor whenever needed. Bottom third of iPhone back is the best spot for scanning. Corners, edges, or areas with high metal density for best results. Combine Stud Finder and Magnetometer modes to validate readings. Use Cases & Applications Hang shelves, TVs, picture frames, cabinets, mirrors, or artwork safely. Detect metal studs, screws, nails, wall anchors, and metal pipes. Explore magnetic fields in classrooms, labs, science fairs, or DIY tech projects. Measure EMF levels for STEM projects, experiments, or educational purposes. Identify hidden metal objects, magnetic anomalies, or ferrous materials. Track magnetic field trends visually with the graph for experiments or demonstrations. Perfect for homeowners, contractors, engineers, students, hobbyists, and interior designers and renovation professionals Curious minds exploring EMF or magnetic fields, STEM classrooms, educational labs, or science fairs Why Download Dual functionality: Stud Finder + Magnetometer Visual feedback: Graph shows field changes in real time Reliable: Perfect for home, school, or lab use Sensor guidance: Bottom third of iPhone back is optimal for scanning Versatile: DIY projects, home improvement, STEM experiments, and tech enthusiasts Download Stud + Metal Scanner now to make your next project easier, safer, and more accurate.

Find studs behind drywall using your iPhone's built-in magnetometer. This app detects metal fasteners (the screws and nails holding your drywall to wood studs) and helps you locate stud lines behind your wall. HOW IT WORKS Your drywall is screwed into wooden studs roughly every 16 inches. This app picks up those screws by reading changes in the magnetic field as you sweep your phone across the wall. Find screws in a vertical line and you've found the stud. HOW TO USE Take your case off. Hold your phone flat against the wall. Sweep slowly left and right. When the signal spikes, there's metal nearby. Mark each spike, look for a vertical line of hits, and that's your stud. Drill a small pilot hole before you mount anything heavy. If the bit hits something solid, you're on the stud. If it punches right through, move an inch and try again. Takes 30 seconds. WHAT THIS APP CANNOT DO It detects metal, not wood. If there are no screws or nails in the wall where you're scanning, it won't find anything. It also won't work well through thick plaster, concrete, or tile. And it's not a replacement for a professional stud finder on structural work. For mounting a TV, hanging shelves, or putting up pictures on normal drywall, it works. No ads. No nag timers. No interruptions. PRIVACY No account. No tracking. No data leaves your phone.
