About this app

This Lux Meter is a great way for you to judge the light values from around the home, workshop and office. Is one room brighter than another? Our App helps you work out if you need to fit brighter light bulbs or additional light sources.
 
Our Lux Meter shows the sensor output on screen in Lux or Foot Candle (FC). With the Hold Function results can be held on screen. The Save Function saves the digital display results to the device and are visible on screen for future use. The display shows which options are active. As every device is different our app shows you the maximum values you can get from your device's sensor. The app includes guides on how to use the Lux Meter, how to calibrate and a list of typical readings you will find around the home, workshop and office.
 
Colourise
The app includes the ability to change the colour of the body and cover casing. You can have any colour you like as the app gives you a hue/saturation/darkness colour slider. Your selected colour is then blended in places to get rich depths of tone.
 
Accuracy and Calibration
Our app uses your device's Ambient Light Sensor which measures light in units of Lux. The only job the sensor is designed for is to dim the screen when it gets dark. Because the sensor isn't designed to work as a Lux Meter the accuracy and range it can deal with can vary greatly between devices. Even if your device isn't that accurate or sensitive it may still be useful for judging differences in light values. Our app includes instructions of how to calibrate your device to improve results. Using this app means you accept our Terms and Conditions which can be found by clicking on our privacy policy link on this page.
 
Support
If your having problems with the app rather than submitting a negative review please contact support so we can resolve the issue for you and help other users as well. Google is committed to removing dangerous apps from the App store and as our apps do not request any dangerous permissions you know you are safe with our apps.

It's good and simple. But a bit more features are expected. Like reset, clear history etc.

What's new

v1.1
• There is a bug in the operating system only found in 7.1.1 Nougat which should be fixed in 7.1.2. Setting a background colour hides the app's graphics. This affects all apps on Android which don't use the default background colour. We have changed our app to correct this so it will now work correctly for 7.1.1 users.
