Comments on Pocket Geiger for Android
★★★★★
Excellent App - Could be improved The app with the radiation-watch.org dongle works well, however I do have a short wish list: 1) could work with longer than 10 minute count times. 2) would be nice if a .csv file could be created from the count graph for Excel or Open Office spreadsheets. 3) clicking with each count or even an alarm for count rates that the user could preset. The photo diode dongle works well, however is not quite sensitive enough to detect Vaseline glass. Also, it is only sensitive to gamma rays and x-rays.

a bit finicky but this app works with a dongle powered by a 9V battery and only measures alpha radiation. If you didn't buy the dongle from japan then the app doesn't work..duh. Mine confirmed I was getting dumped on by fukushima in Turkey in 2011/2.It also showed friends from Northern Turkey(Black Sea) had 3.86us from Chernobyl It was enough to cause thyroid cancer after 20 years in all of his family.. It also confirmed the arrival of radiation in Australian east coast in 2013 which confirmed the computer models for the Pacific ocean. Rads went from 0.2us to 2.0. the great eastern australian current that year was eerily crystal clear blue...fukushima blue...plankton dead.

Works with a separate dongle This app will only work with a dongle that can be purchased from Japan or sellers in UK and US. This dongle connects to your phone or tablet over the microphone input. If you want a radiation detector without a dongle, then search for apps that use the camera as an (insensitive) radiation detector. * * * The setup instructions are not very clear. Go to settings, set both thresholds to 1% and trigger to 10 seconds. Start measuring in the "input wave" view. Hold the Pocket Geiger dongle next to a radiation source such as a bag of potassium fertilizer or a smoke-detector ionization chamber. Adjust the settings such that the pulse does not exceed the noise threshold, and crosses the radiation threshold only once. The dongle is not very sensitive to the type of radiation from a smoke detector (americium-241) or potassium, but it is enough to calibrate the thresholds.
★★☆☆☆
Who do you think your fooling? Input wave is nothing more then a sound meter!
★★☆☆☆
reads sound waves?? watching a video while installing and opened app chose input wave saw movement paused video wave stopped. hmmmm.
★★☆☆☆
Lies! This app detects noise. Not radiation. Held directly next to hot source and flatlined.
★★☆☆☆
Omg I just realized that the waves are the sound u make blow in your phone andbthe waves will go up
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't detect radiation! It detects sound and possibly heat or wind. But it is definitely not a Geiger counter.
