Description

First and only 3D-graphical Vector Accelerometer in App Store: Smoothly visualize and measure the current acceleration. It can be used on earth, on moon or in orbit (where relative would be equal to absolute mode - please prove) to visualize the direction and strength of the gravitation - or simply at home to measure the g-forces you reach while shaking your phone - however be warned if you tend to get to the limits! :-). A fun application is to place the iPhone/iPod steady in your car (or any other moving vehicle), go to relative mode, zero it once when you are standing and then see the current g-forces in effect while you drive (e.g. what g-force does your car get when you accelerate?).

The application has five different display modes for acceleration visualization:

- Absolute Mode: Displays the reverse acceleration of the iPhone (1g up when hold steady).

- X-Rotation - Y-Rotation - Z-Rotation: The arrow will display the rotation around the X-, Y- and Z-Axis of the iPhone. The digital indicator shows the angle numerically (-180° - +180°). A way to calibrate will be added with one of the next updates, so you could use this as a level.

- Relative Mode: This mode shows the relative strength (absolute minus compensation vector) of the acceleration.


For a detailed documentation, please visit our product homepage.


For recreational use only. However it CAN (!) be very accurate. The measurement is performed as good as possible (we try our best) by using the inbuilt accelerometer and magnetometer to their limits. The range of the accelerometer typically has a max of ±3g (~4.2g displayed here if combined). However, tell us your experience!

Broken on 4.2.1

The latest update has broken this for iOS 4.2.1 on 3G iPhone. Previous version worked well though.
With this update, none of the buttons work and the arrow shows only one plane in one mode.

Wazza Auzza ,

Broken by update and now kludged

Was good, reporting about 1.02g in all directions, now reports whacky figures between 1.0 and 1.7g depending on the orientation of the phone - when held totally steady - because the vector maths is seemingly wrong and apparently totally untested. UPDATE; Developer is seemingly unable to fix his or her silly code so now it's been hard-coded to always show 1.0g REGARDLESS of the acceleration! Why would you bother!! Also the review button STILL takes you to reviews of some totally different app (MagnetMeter?)!

Why must developers inflict their stupid updates on us!

The developer is also totally unresponsive to feedback even after a month of waiting. :-( Having moaned about all that; the app looks great, pretty arrow! :-(
