For this app to work, the nails in your wall should be magnetic and your device (iPad, iPhone or iPod) should have a built-in magnetometer. This app does not detect non-magnetic objects, For example, aluminum or wood studs. DISCLAIMER: The performance of the app is limited by the construction of the wall, presence of a phone cover and/or the material of the nails in the studs. INSTRUCTIONS If your device has a external case, please remove before using this app. Calibrate your device’s magnetic sensor by moving the device in a "Figure 8" pattern. Then tap the "Intensity" reading displayed on the app to set the baseline to zero. To accurately detect nails using this app, on iPhone 5s and below, sweep with the right edge of the device against the wall. For iPhone 6 and above, sweep with the top edge of the device along the wall. Sometimes it helps to first figure out the location of the magnet (compass magnet) on your phone using a magnetic material so it becomes clear where to "mark" when you find a nail in the stud.

Was lucky to quickly find a nail to identify a stud. In few minutes I had the picture hanging securely on the wall. You may have to explore up and down to find a nail. -- SkyKeith, 2022-05-11 ### ***** "Accurate Stud Finder" This is a great alternative to going out and spending money on a stud finder. During my project I ended up checking it with a real stud finder and it ended up being very accurate. This app is by far better than the other ones on the App Store because the ads are less frequent and disruptive! It’s easy to use and I highly recommend. -- z0w0w, 2020-07-19 ### *---- "Useless." Don’t know if I’m just an idiot or if this app just doesn’t work. It said 0-1 through my entire wall. It didn’t detect a dingle stud and changed randomly, even when I wasn’t using it. Frustrating waste of time. -- Piper_22, 2020-06-18 ### *---- "ZERO!!!!!!" ☹️ don’t work at all -- Lonstoppable, 2020-03-31 ### *---- "Doesn’t work" Did not do anything. Deleting right now. -- Annalise217, 2020-02-24 ### *---- "Just doesn’t work." The meter reads 47-53 no matter what I’m pointing it at: glass, wood, metal, my son—everything reads within that range. Phone case on, phone case off, same results. Useless. The pop-up ads are pretty egregious, too. Even if the app worked, being interrupted every ten seconds really decreases the app’s usefulness. -- OwlHeadedGod, 2020-01-20 ### ****- "Worked great" We needed to mount my sons tv in his room use this app and successfully set up his tv and it’s supper sturdy! Can’t complain -- dollygisselle, 2019-11-20 ### *---- "Garbage" Pretty cool app if you bob the builder ! Otherwise go buy a stud finder , probably get more accurate results if you just knock on the wall . -- Mike060402, 2019-11-04 ### ***** "Works very well" Im a contractor and used this app after my stud finder broke and was able to detect all the studs and found center on all of them first try i def give 5 stars and will be keeping this app on my iphone 👌 -- Bp_Merk, 2019-10-26 ### ***** "Worked as advertised" This app was pretty easy to use and the instructions / description on the App Store were very clear about how this is actually useful. It took a minute or two to probe my wall but I was able to narrow down where the stud was pretty precisely. In the end, I found my stud. -- Kconway6, 2019-10-21 [View all Stud Find reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## Stud Find In-App Purchases | Item | Price | |------|-------| | Support Stud Find | $0.99 | ## Stud Find Discovered Keywords -
