| 2022-07-10 |  | | Know where the location of it is whether it's just repeating itself as I go to different places or is it just popping up once the Wi-Fi hit I'm not understanding where they are and what location it can be anywhere and it doesn't show me where it's reading the information from the location anyway |
| 2022-06-21 |  | | This does not work. It keeps saying that there is a spy camera detected. But when I click on the notification, it jus takes me to the app an I does does not show what devices have been detected. It's pointless 🤷🏾♀️💯 |
| 2022-04-26 |  | | For 1, doesn't work. For 2, my phone alerted the microphone turned on in a closed app and it showed this app as the one that opened it. Scary much!? No thanks. |
| 2021-11-29 |  | | could not reliably locate studs with Galaxy s20+. Keeps sending notifications about "spy cameras" it has found but when I click on the notification it gives no detail. junk -uninstalling. |
| 2021-10-14 |  | | App does work. Pretty dam well for Being free! But some people are stupid... you dont put a pen into a pence sharpener, expecting it to write after. .. Weird this is i keep getting notifications from this app stating its found a spy camera ??.. anyone else get these? I'd rate it higher, but these odd notifications made me delete the app |
| 2021-07-10 |  | | Garbage. Doesn't detect wooden studs. If you hold your phone against a piece of metal, it will tell you after about 5 seconds that there's metal there. It's funny, all the 5 star ratings read as if they're been written by the same few people and don't sound like people who would be using stud detectors often. Friends of the developers no doubt. Bombarded with ads as well. Uninstalled. |
| 2021-04-14 |  | | Woke up to a notification on my Samsung Note 10+ saying Stud Finder detected spy camera so I am deleting this app straight away. That should never ever come up on anyone's phone. You need to check your script & find out why it's saying that. |
| 2021-04-01 |  | | I have to watch a commercial before every single use. And, it doesn't find a single stud or object behind any wall I tried it on. Waste of time. Worse than a waste of time, they get paid off of me watching many commercials and I got zero use out of it. Avoid at all costs |
| 2021-03-23 |  | | Absolute trash. Doesn't work at all - meter moves more when phone is sitting stable in a piece of plastic than when pressed against metal. Also gave me weird alerts, like a spy camera being detected? Waste of time. |
| 2021-03-22 |  | | These reviews from millenials with no knowledge is cracking me up.. you know how a metal detector helps you find wooden studs? Because sheetrock/drywall are nailed to the studs so your walls stay in place . So yes this app will help you locate studs. So will a magnet... wood doesn't have to be magnetic when there is sheetrock nailed to studs... do research before you write a bad review just bc you're uninformed . |
