Stud Finder

We had a good guess where the studs could be based on an existing mount but wanted to verify, sure enough this told us we were right

Just as useful as dividing my wall into sections, giving them numbers and rolling dice to indicate where the studs are.

Followed instructions to calibrate. The only thing it managed to detect was the moment I wasted my time.

Couldn't find any

Didnt find any studs

Not as good as an actual stud finder but it works! Here’s something that I hope helps. Take a nail or something metal, and hold it still in one hand. Set your sensitivity to 50%. Slowly move your phone forward towards the nail till it beeps. Take note of how far away it was. Consider also the thickness of the wall the paint, etc as you readjust the sensitivity. Try it again till you get a close-ish approximation of how far you’d be holding your phone from an actual stud in the wall. For me it turned out at 80%. Saw for some it turns out to work at 70-75%. But every phone and every wall is different. Measured several sections of wall and marked each point my phone beeped. Sure enough it formed a pretty even pattern and vertically every stud was around 16 inches apart. Not bad!

Will be buying full version to support the developer, but this is a really great app and was able to find studs that were behind plywood and Drywall with the app. Just had to turn the sensitivity up.

Not for the novice

I’m so thankful for the creators of this app. It worked very well!

This app does not work. I would rather go to Home Depot and buy one that really works.
