Ratings and Reviews
This is legit
This app is legitimate. It actually did help me find a couple of metal studs in my wall to help me mount a small TV, replacing an ancient box tv. Interface was easy to use and read. I double checked everything with a stud finder tool that I borrowed from my mom and it gave me the same results that this app did.
Only reason why I took a star off is because of the annoying “cool-off” time. Every minute or so, you have to wait about 10-20 seconds before you can keep using it, unless you pay $2.00 to “unlock” the ability to use it continuously. After the first three or four minutes of this I did end up forking over those coveted $2.00. Still cheaper and more convenient than buying a dedicated stud finder tool and served my needs well, but the pop ups were pretty annoying.
Finds survey pipes buried in the ground
I was selling a bit of my property to my neighbor and needed to find 1 inch steel survey pipes that were buried in the ground at certain points. Nearly 30 years ago. The stud finder app worked just great! You did have to hold the phone on its side toward one corner, and you had to be within about a foot of the pipe in any direction. Basically get close enough via rough survey measurements that you could go on your hands and knees and find the beeping sound of the pipe. Worked fantastic, very pleased.
Thought it was a scam...
I thought there was gonna be no way in hell this is gonna work but it was my only hope after putting multiple holes in the dam wall. Downloaded it and put it up to my tv wall mount and it spiked up. Brought it up to my wall and moved it over to where my holes were and it was going off in between 2 holes I put in the wall and what do you know....... there she was bud! Anyways yeah 10/10 would 100% recommend
