How accurate is the stud detection?

Our app provides highly accurate stud detection using your phone's magnetic sensor. While accuracy can vary based on wall type and phone model, most users achieve 90%+ accuracy for standard wood studs behind drywall.

Which phones are compatible?

The app works on most Android devices that have a built-in magnetometer (magnetic sensor). This includes most smartphones released after 2012. You can check if your device is compatible by downloading the app.

Does it work on all wall types?

The app works best on drywall with wood or metal studs. It can also detect metal pipes and electrical wiring. Performance may vary on plaster walls, concrete, or walls with heavy texturing.

Is the app really free?

Yes! The core stud finding functionality is completely free with no hidden costs. The app may include optional premium features or ad-supported content, but the basic stud detection tools are always available at no charge.

How do I calibrate the app?

Calibration is simple! Just place your phone flat against the wall in an area you know has no studs, then tap the calibrate button. The app will establish a baseline reading for that wall type.
