How It Works

Utilizing Apple's Sensors
Metal Magnet uses the magnetometer sensor in your iOS device to detect magnetic field variations. These variations can indicate the presence of metallic objects or studs in the walls. The app captures data along three axes (X, Y, Z) and calculates the magnetism magnitude to deliver an accurate reading.

Real-Time Updates
Thanks to SwiftUI and CoreLocation, Metal Magnet provides real-time updates on the magnetic field. Coupled with the AVFoundation framework for sound alerts, the app offers an interactive and enriching user experience.

Sensitivity Adjustments
The app allows for sensitivity customization, which means you can adjust how easily it reacts to metal detections. A higher sensitivity will enable the app to respond to weaker magnetic fields, providing a comprehensive detection range.

Types of Metals:
Ferromagnetic Materials: These materials are strongly attracted to magnets and can retain their magnetic properties even after the magnetic field is removed. Some common ferromagnetic metals include: Iron (Fe), Nickel (Ni), Cobalt (Co), Gadolinium (Gd), Neodymium (Nd), and Samarium (Sm).
