Review summary

Acceleration Explorer is praised for its elegant design, powerful logging and filtering options, and accurate sensor measurements. Users find it useful for exploring device orientation and sensors, noting it as a great and professional app. However, some users report issues with the app not showing true acceleration movement and the CSV logging file missing axis data. There is also some confusion about accessing or using the log playback feature, and some feel it behaves more like a bubble level than a full acceleration measurement tool.
Pros
  • The app is simple, elegant, and professionally made.
  • The logging feature with many filtering options is useful and powerful for understanding different filtering methods.
  • It effectively shows orientation changes and provides accurate measurements beyond just acceleration.
  • The app is open source, which is appreciated by users.
  • Overall, it is considered a great app that gets the job done and is useful for exploring device sensors.
Cons
  • The app does not always show actual acceleration movement as expected, with the indicator jittering but not changing position correspondingly.
  • The log file feature is often reported as not working properly, with CSV files missing axis data except for timestamps.
  • Some users feel the app only acts like a bubble level and does not measure acceleration properly.
  • There is confusion or lack of clarity on how to locate or use the log playback feature.

Doesn't work as I expected, the dot in the circle jitters but does not move position as I walk the phone around. I've been testing my phone's sensors in my own code and they work, so not sure why this app is failing to show movement.

Looks useful but log file doesn't appear to work. I like the option for apparently cancelling out the gravity component so that only the linear acceleration on each axis is displayed. BUT in the csv log file I only getting the timestamp column filled in and there is no z y z axis data

This app shows the orientation NOT acceleration of my phone. Rename your app? Great app otherwise though.

The logger activity with the many filtering options is great! Really helpful in understanding the different filtering methods. Overall excellent and a special thanks for making this open source.
