Magnetometer is a fun app for finding metal or magnets by detecting EMF interference with your iPhone's compass heading. Find your keys, or just have fun discovering what could be made of metal. Magnetometer is not meant to replace an actual, professional-grade metal detector.
Magnetometer presents simple information to the user about the interference experiences. For more scientific data, please turn to other great apps on the App Store. Magnetometer is made for fun and for experimental purposes and is not designed for scientific use. Also, don't drop your iPhone in sand hoping to find treasure; it's risky.

Each store’s release notes, as the developer wrote them. They are the developer’s words, not ours.
Magnetometer just got a refresh for iOS 26! - Remade some UI elements for Liquid Glass - Updated app icon for iOS 26 - Rotate Interface option - if your device has the sensors required on the bottom, you can choose to rotate the interface upside down. Then, you can use your device upside down so that the sensors always sit at the top - Improved onboarding experience - Minor improvements & groundwork for new features

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.
Write to [email protected], or use the form. Name the finding, the app version and the evidence that needs correcting. Factual corrections are free and never depend on buying anything.
