Description
Grams Light Weight Approximate allows you to use the tilt sensors of your device to roughly estimate tilt angel and based on this angle roughly estimate the weight of small object such as coins and jewelry. Impossible? It's possible. Think back to elementary school physics and balance. It's a very similar principle. Force, Weight, Leverage, etc. It's technically possible. The only matter is the accuracy, which directly depends on the conditions under which the measurements are made. When calibrated, result of estimate under ideal conditions can be compared to the real weight of the weighed object. However, we cannot guarantee this as it depends on your device, whether your sensors are properly calibrated, how you balance your device and other conditions including but not limited to: the material your device is made of, the diameter of the surface on which the device is balanced, the size of the device, the location of the weight, the coefficients of friction between all objects involved in the measurement, humidity, air temperature and velocity, and more. In addition, the rough result obtained is the result of rounding up the changes in device tilt and calculating based on this data. To ensure the best measurement conditions, we recommend performing a test measurement with an object whose weight is known in advance. This way, you can balance your device optimally and measure other objects more accurately. But in any case, the result you get is an rough weight estimate. For this reason, it is highly recommended to use a real digital pocket scale or a digital kitchen scale for accurate weight estimate, if you have one.
The weight must create a tilt change for the application to work properly. To do this, place your phone on a simple ruler, than place it in a curved surface(like a pencil) so that the device tilts when a weight is placed on the ruler. The app will then take a few sensor reading, perform the necessary calculations and give a rough estimate of weight in grams.
Please use the app just as shown in the picture in the app! To see the instructions anytime you want just click on the question mark in the upper right corner of the app.
Attention! Do NOT place the weight on the phone screen. Place the weight only on the ruler.

Comments on Grams Weight Scale Approximate for Android
★★★★☆Art's Coins· Mar 9, 2025
It's pretty solid but make sure u balance it with a pencil in the pictures they show u how. But it's mostly for things pretty small.
★★★★★Jimmy Maisonave· May 19, 2025
Works great. Easy 2 steps if people would read how to use it.
★★★★★Eulogio Magee· Mar 17, 2026
Better than I expected, measures everything quite accurately
★★★★★Angel Simpson· Mar 12, 2026
Good accuracy. You really do need to spend some time calibrating it, but overall it’s quite good.

Downloaded the app and once it was calibrated set a coin on it, and it didn't read anything at all. I took it off of the screen and it all of a sudden popped up. 1.2 g and I could push on the screen, and it would only move about half of a gram, and I would be pushing down with at least a couple pounds worth of pressure.

Terrible app. I downloaded this app to measure how much I weight, so I calibrated it. I stepped on my phone and cracked, burst into flames and exploded. It was charging when this happened, so my charger set fire and burnt down my house. I am writing this review from my grandma's toaster. And I also no longer have legs. But at least the interface is cool. Wouldn't recommend.

Tried weighing my darts, and they roll off when I got it to stay it said it weighed 3 grams, and it was a 23 Gram dart so inaccurate goes by tilt of the phone like a see-saw and not ment for anything heavy. Unless I set it up wrong

Go sensors in our app should correlate and respond to the scale more efficiently the end.
