Description

Proximity Sensor Finder does what it says - it helps you locate the proximity sensor on your Android device. It is a very simple, purpose-built app with no flashy graphics.

Proximity Sensor Finder tells you a few things about your device:

1. Does the device have a proximity sensor?
2. Is an object in close proximity detected?
3. Does this device support actual proximity distances or just "covered" and "uncovered" sensor states?
4. For supported devices, exactly how far away is the object?
5. How long has the sensor been covered?
6. How much power is the proximity sensor consuming?

We developed Proximity Sensor Finder as an internal testing tool but it soon became apparent that there was a need in the market for just such an app, so we decided to ship it and make it free!

Comments on Proximity Sensor Finder for Android

★★★★★ Does what is says on the tin It's a good app. If you need to find your proximity sensor, use this.

★★★★★ Simple and works. Installed, tested that my sensor was working, now uninstalling, but the app did its job perfectly.

★★★★★ Brilliant no nonsense app. Helped me find the proximity sensor. I had no idea where it was otherwise. Thank you so much

★★☆☆☆ Why so many permissions? Read USB storage? Phone Status and Identity? etc. etc. Uninstalling it! Guys please check its permissions and then opt whether to install it or not! Its just a proximity sensor tester, then why so many such permissions?

★★☆☆☆ Useless This app is useless. Does nothing.

★★☆☆☆ Yea well Works good enough but when I went to unistall it pops up the logo and don't allow me to uninstall

★★☆☆☆ Every screen (main screen, settings, about dialogue, etc.) is blank. Maybe this app is too old.

★★☆☆☆ I don'tknow if I'm stupid or something is missing. The app only tells me that there's a sensor and the last proximity sensed, but I don't understand how to use it to find where the sensor is. The distance is always the same.
