Comments on Stud Finder & Metal Detector for Android

★★★★★ Anthony Hughes · Jul 26, 2026
Worked fairly quickly. Can't find how to cancel subscription.
★☆☆☆☆ Doug B · Aug 25, 2026
I have to pay for a $40 subscription to use it to mount 2 TVs. SMH. I think not.
★☆☆☆☆ Jean David Cidel · Jul 19, 2026
Not accurate. Didn't find wood studs. Had to purchase a physical one
★☆☆☆☆ In Stasis · Oct 13, 2026
Absolute garbage. Never gave accurate readings for stud locations. Even though the app detected the approximate stud location, its reading fluctuated so badly across an area far wider than the stud width, meaning it was impossible to know whether you were drilling into stud or into drywall on either side of the stud.
★☆☆☆☆ Joshua Root · Aug 10, 2026
Cause u made me rate u before I even get to use the app

Description by appcellent Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Find wall studs, beams, screws, nails and live wires before you drill. Stud Finder turns your phone's built-in magnetometer into a stud detector, wall scanner and metal detector – no extra hardware.

▸ HOW IT WORKS

Slide the phone slowly across the wall. The gauge rises as you pass a screw, nail or metal bracket in the stud; sound and haptic feedback tell you the moment you are over it. Mark the spot, drill with confidence.

▸ WHAT YOU GET

• Magnetic gauge with X, Y, Z readings and a live signal graph
• Adjustable sensitivity for drywall, plaster, tile and thick walls
• Sound and vibration alerts so you can watch the wall, not the screen
• Flashlight for dark corners, basements and attics
• Works offline, no account, no ads

▸ WALL TOOLS

• Bubble level – level shelves, frames and furniture
• Hang a Picture – spacing and nail height for 1–5 frames
• TV Mount Height – bracket height from your seating position
• Screws & Anchors – which anchor holds how much weight

▸ FINDS

Wood studs and joists (via the screws and nails in them), metal studs, rebar, pipes, conduit, nails, screws, brackets and other ferrous metal behind drywall, plaster or wood.

▸ WHO IT'S FOR

Homeowners, renters, DIYers, carpenters, electricians, installers and anyone mounting a TV, shelf, mirror or cabinet.

▸ GOOD TO KNOW

The app reads your phone's magnetometer, so it detects metal (screws, nails, pipes), not wood itself. Keep magnets, cases with magnets and metal objects away from the phone while scanning. For live wires and certified work, confirm with a dedicated instrument.

▸ SUBSCRIPTION

Free to download with core scanning. A subscription unlocks the live graph, adjustable sensitivity, sound & haptic feedback and all wall tools. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel in Google Play. A free trial, where offered, converts to a paid subscription unless cancelled before it ends.
