Stud Finder brings the simplicity and effectiveness of a studfinder tool to your android device. This application uses your device's magnetometer to pinpoint metal studs, nails, or screws in wood studs located in any wall. Perfect for hanging wall fixtures, pictures, shelves, etc. Stud Finder operates in the same way as other hand-held studfinders: LED lights light up in sequence with proximity to stud, and Stud Finder optionally beeps when your device's magnetometer is directly over the stud. Why pay $20 or more for another tool when you can have Stud Finder on your phone or tablet now? Stud Finder also has three sensitivity settings (high, medium, and low) to ensure the perfect detection range for different devices, drywall thicknesses, or nail and screw depths; a calibrator for eliminating interference from background magnetic fields, and a magnetometer sensor check to ensure Stud Finder will work optimally on your device.

**NEW IMPROVED VERSION 12.0!!!**
In version 12.0, I am very excited and proud to introduce completely new, improved algorithms for the medium and high sensitivity settings! Previous versions detected absolute magnetic field readings (and the low sensitivity setting in version 12.0 still uses this approach); however, after carefully evaluating user feedback, this approach was determined to not work in all situations.

So in version 12.0, the algorithms for the medium and high sensitivity settings were completely rewritten with a different approach in mind. Instead of measuring the absolute magnetic field, these sensitivities measure subtle changes in the background magnetic field which allows greatly improved accuracy and precision in locating studs! I would love to go into more detail of the inner workings of the algorithms, but that could potentially minimize my competitive edge!

At the same time as this new approach has greatly improved the effectiveness of Stud Finder, the user interface has actually been simplified to improve ease of use. And changes have been made to the in-app instructions to reflect the modifications in version 12.0.

Thank you all so much for your downloads, feedback, and reviews. Please keep them coming so that future versions can be even further improved!
