Works well. I also like the three sensor readouts - a must for the engineer in me. :) Nicely done app. Thanks!

Description
Detect nearby metal objects with your device! Amaze your friends by showing the magic of your electronic compass.
This sucker actually works! Hold it near a metal object and watch the needles show you the magnetic fields in action!
Note: You need an iPhone 3Gs in order for this to work because we use the internal compass to detect magnetic fields.
Also: If it gets stuck beeping, move your device around in a figure-8 or just shake it around a bit until it stops.

Nice use of magnetometer.
Doesnt work
Doesnt work unless you allow it to your your current location......then it still doesnt work.....only way i got it to beep was of o waved the phone around quickly....... Maybe its get better with updates, cool idea anyway
Looks cool, even functions a little.
Nice free app. Probably looks better as a metal detector than it functions as a one. It doesnt recognize coins or keys; but if you are two inches away from metal otherwise, it does alert you. Guess the only practical purpose would be to determine if something is indeed metal, as it wont help you find anything missing, probably. However, does seem to work to some degree at detecting metal, and how many other phones can say that? Also, thank you for the free app Phase2 Media!
Where is the Magnetometer?
This app needs a picture to show where the iPhone magnetometer is physically, so the app can be properly tested. So far it works poorly.
REQUIRES IPHONE 3G[S]
DOES NOT WORK ON 3G. IF YOU GAVE IT A BAD REVIEW BECAUSE IT "DIDNT WORK", YOU ARE AN IDIOT.
It works
As mentioned it only works after allow it to get current location. Using a pair of scissors I found that around the Apple logo and near the lower text it worked. Just for fun, turned up the sensitivity and could use it like a simple magnet stud finder.
works pretty well
it works verry well with a microwave or plasma tv. :)
