Perfect for both seasoned gardeners and beginners, PPFD Meter sets itself apart from standard grow light meter apps with its comprehensive features and intuitive design.

Efficiency and Consumption Insights: Assess the efficiency of your lighting system in converting energy into usable light. Track the daily total energy consumption to manage your energy usage and environmental impact effectively.
Comprehensive DLI Tracking: Monitor the Daily Light Integral, a key factor in regulating plant health and growth cycles, ensuring your plants receive the right amount of light each day.

Comments on PPFD Meter - Grow Light Meter for Android
★★★★★Bryan Bunte· Jan 14, 2026
I like to use this app for my household plants.\nLike my roses and stuff like that, whether I need to know the shade on them or open up for more sunlight, especially during the very hot summers
★★★★★Blackie· May 31, 2026
Love the app pretty accurate readings and easy to use
★★★★★Matt Eckenrode· Feb 1, 2026
Absolutely love this app and is incredibly amazing when you pair it with the uni-t mini light meter
★★★★★Thomas Needham· Feb 25, 2026
I have been using the PPFD Meter with a few different 800W lights, a couple different name brand foods on probably 20 different photo and 10 auto paints over 8 grows over the past 2 years. It is the best measure to find the distance between plant and light getting my highest yields, and strongest bud. Using a measuring stick doesn't even come close now there is a PPFD app. Floored it has always been free also.

Made me update to keep using it... Edit: no. auto updates are unsafe.
★☆☆☆☆Dirt Nap· Mar 1, 2026
This app never reads correct even when I select the correct spectrum for my AC Infinity s24 light. I verified this with my VBR-100 par meter.
