Magnetic Sensor
Read full descriptionHide full description
Magnetic Sensor turns your phone's built-in magnetometer into three precise tools: ⢠Compass ā A live, tilt-compensated compass with cardinal direction (N/E/S/W) and adjustable magnetic declination so the needle points to true north, not just magnetic north. ⢠Metal Detector ā Set a baseline reading anywhere, choose Low/Med/High sensitivity, and feel haptic pulses that get stronger as the field deviates. Perfect for finding studs in a wall, screws under drywall, or rebar in concrete. ⢠Field Logger ā Record samples at up to 60 Hz, then export to CSV via the share sheet. Saved recordings stay in the app for replay or re-export. KEY FEATURES ⢠Live X / Y / Z axis readings + total field magnitude ⢠Tilt-compensated heading using the accelerometer ⢠Magnitude history sparkline + multi-channel chart ⢠Rolling statistics: mean, standard deviation, RMS, range ⢠Figure-8 calibration helper with quality indicator ⢠Min / Max tracking with one-tap reset ⢠Three sample rates: Slow (500 ms), Normal (100 ms), Fast (16 ms) ⢠Light / Dark / System theme ⢠English and Korean ⢠Unit options: μT, mGauss, nT ⢠Adjustable smoothing ⢠Magnetic declination presets ⢠Haptic alerts for the detector ⢠Keep-screen-awake while recording ⢠CSV export with full timestamp + per-axis data PRIVACY All sensor data is processed on-device and never leaves your phone. The app does not collect location, contacts, or personal information. Anonymous mobile advertising is used to keep the app free; you can watch a rewarded ad to unlock unlimited CSV sharing for the session. WHO IT'S FOR ⢠Hobbyists exploring magnetic fields ⢠DIYers detecting screws, studs, and rebar ⢠Students collecting data for physics or geology projects ⢠Hikers wanting a reliable phone compass ⢠Anyone curious about the invisible field around them REQUIREMENTS A device with a magnetometer (most phones built since ~2013). The app cannot work on devices without one ā it will tell you on launch.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: KVV Caddy at none against Magnetic Sensor's shown. KVV Caddy also leads on iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
