Review summary

The reviews are mixed. Many users praise the app for being easy to use and for accurate stud detection (and wire/metal detection) that can save time on DIY projects. However, a significant portion report reliability issues, with frequent fails to detect studs or overall non-functionality. Overall, it’s valuable when it works, but reliability problems are a common point of contention for a substantial subset of users.

Pros

Easy to use with an intuitive interface.
Accurate detection of studs (and wires) when it works.
Multiple scanning modes and metal/wire detection features.
Saves time on drilling and DIY projects.
Generally reliable and well-received by many users when functioning.

Cons

Unreliable or non-detecting detection; many users report the app fails to detect studs or works inconsistently.
Not working for some users (including explicit reports of 'never worked' or 'didn't work'), indicating inconsistent reliability.

2026-06-28	ro*****	well I all ready took out all drywall down the the studs. and all ready installed the new dry wall. I did the old school way and marked where the studs are. so I am looking for a new stud finder and come across this and it popped up on my phone. so I downloaded it. remember I know where the studs are. I put this against the wall and where the studs are at it didn't detective. it was 3" off where the actual stud was at. so this it not accurate at all.
