## Description

"Tint Meter" is a free Android app designed to check the transparency of car windows. By measuring both external and internal illumination, it calculates the visible light transmission (VLT) as a percentage. Using your smartphone's light sensor, typically located at the top of the screen, this app provides an easy and convenient way to determine the tint level of automotive glass. No internet connection is necessary for its operation, making it accessible anytime, anywhere.
