## Description

"Metal Detector U-12" is an Android app that detects the presence of nearby metal by measuring magnetic field values. It identifies any metal object within 25 cm, including hidden electrical wires and metal items in walls. The app can also serve as a body scanner to find metallic objects, making it useful for security checks. With a built-in magnetic sensor, it provides readings of magnetic fields, alerting users to the presence of metal through increased EMF readings. Note that not all smartphones have the required sensor.
