Stud Finder & Metal Scanner
Find Studs, Nails & Pipes
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Find the hidden metal in your wall — nails, screws, studs, pipes — with no cooldown timers and no pop-up traps. Just sweep and go. The honest iPhone stud finder.
Your iPhone is a metal detector. Sweep it across a wall and Stud Finder & Metal Scanner flags the hidden metal — nails, screws, metal studs, steel pipes, and rebar — using the built-in magnetometer. No cooldown timers. No pop-up traps. Ever.
▸ FIND THE METAL IN YOUR WALL
Sweep your phone flat across the surface and watch the radar gauge climb and the haptics buzz right as you cross buried metal.
• Live radar/needle gauge with a real microtesla (µT) readout
• Escalating haptics that peak directly over the metal
• Peak-Hold to lock onto the strongest reading
• Two modes — Stud Finder for walls, Metal Detector for open sweeps
▸ HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT FINDS
A phone's magnetometer senses magnetic (ferrous) metal — not bare wood, copper, gold, or aluminum. To find a wood stud, find the nails or screws holding it in place. A 30-second guide teaches you exactly how, so you get real results instead of frustration.
• Finds: nails, screws, metal/steel studs, steel pipes, rebar, bolts, brackets
• Doesn't find: bare wood, copper wire, gold, silver, aluminum
• Re-open the "How it works" guide anytime
▸ NO COOLDOWN. NO HOSTAGE TOOL.
Some apps freeze for 10–20 seconds mid-scan until you pay. We never do. The full live detector — both modes, the gauge, and standard haptics — is free, with no scan limits and no countdown.
▸ CALIBRATE FOR CLEANER READINGS
A quick baseline (plus an optional figure-8) tunes out interference. We flag the usual culprits — metal cases, MagSafe magnets, nearby speakers and motors — so your readings stay trustworthy.
▸ PREMIUM (optional)
• Adjustable sensitivity & threshold for tricky walls
• Geiger-style audio alerts with tone styles
• Fine calibration with figure-8 assist
• Save & label scans for every room and project
• Zero ads
