LuxMeter vs LUX Meter

LuxMeter turns your iPhone camera into a precise light meter, giving you instant illuminance readings in lux, foot-candles, or exposure value (EV). Whether you are checking lighting conditions for work, photography, or plant care, LuxMeter delivers real-time measurements derived directly from your camera's exposure metadata using the industry-standard APEX formula. The live gauge updates continuously as you move the camera, and the automatic brightness category — from Moonlight to Direct Sun — tells you at a glance what kind of environment you are in. Hold any reading to freeze the display and share it, or save a session to keep a timestamped log of your measurements. Key features: - Real-time lux readings powered by camera exposure metadata - Displays lux, foot-candles (fc), and exposure value (EV) - Animated gauge with live min, avg, and max statistics - Hold mode to freeze and share a reading - Session history with bar chart and inline notes - EV calibration offset to match a reference meter - Built-in lux reference table covering natural light, office, home, photography, and plant growth - Clean, distraction-free design with dark mode support

LUX Meter is a private light meter for quick, practical illuminance checks with your iPhone camera. Measure ambient light in lux or foot-candles, compare rooms and work areas, check desk lighting, find brighter spots for plants, and see whether a space is too dim, comfortable, or bright enough for detailed tasks. Pick a target for your task — reading, office, kitchen, plants and more — and get instant "too dim / good / too bright" feedback as you move the phone. Simple and trustworthy: no account, no ads, no tracking, no photo storage. Features: - Lux and foot-candle readings - Lighting target presets with live in-range feedback - Live brightness scale with plain-language guidance - Hold mode to freeze a measurement - Session min, average and max - Calibration against one trusted lux value - Practical guide with common light levels - Paper-diffuser guidance for incident light - Private on-device camera metering Important: LUX Meter estimates illuminance from camera exposure. Great for quick checks, comparisons, and plant or room-light decisions. For regulated, safety-critical, or professional compliance measurements, use a certified lux meter.
