By Appreka, from Google Play“Metal detector & stud finder — locate metal, studs, wires & pipes in your wall”
Description by Appreka Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
StudFinder uses your phone's built-in magnetometer sensor to locate metal studs, nails, screws, pipes, rebar, and hidden metal behind walls, floors, and ceilings. No extra hardware required — all you need to find studs, detect metal, and scan a wall is your phone.
Whether you're hanging a shelf, mounting a TV, or avoiding electrical wires and pipes before you drill, the StudFinder metal detector shows you what's behind the wall in seconds.

WHAT CAN IT FIND?
With the StudFinder metal detector and stud finder you can locate:
- Metal studs and beams behind walls
- Nails, screws, and metal fasteners
- Water, gas, and heating pipes, plus iron pipes
- Rebar inside concrete
- Hidden metal objects and magnetic items
WHO IS IT FOR?
- Anyone doing home improvement and DIY projects
- Hanging shelves, frames, cabinets, and TV mounts
- Handymen, technicians, and electricians
- Curious minds who want to know what's behind the wall
HOW IT WORKS
StudFinder reads the magnetometer (magnetic sensor) in your phone. As you move closer to metal, the magnetic field changes and the detector gauge rises. The point where the reading peaks is where the metal is. Scan the wall slowly, watch the gauge, and find the metal in seconds.
WHY STUDFINDER?
- No extra gear: carry a metal detector in your pocket
- Quick setup with a clean, intuitive design
- Great for beginners and professionals alike
- The same experience on iOS and Android
Note: Detection accuracy depends on your phone's magnetometer sensor and the type, size, and depth of the metal. StudFinder detects magnetic and metallic objects and is a helpful DIY tool, not a substitute for professional detection equipment. Wooden studs are not magnetic, so they can only be located through the metal nails and screws fixed to them.
Download now, turn your phone into a metal detector and stud finder, and discover what's behind the wall!
