About Light Meter Harmony

A simple app displaying the light sensor value from the phone.
To be used in photography, scenic design or whatever you want

Bonus: includes a sound meter and a vibrations meter.

Includes a nice graph. You can make screenshots and pause the meter.

Value is DIRECT from the phone sensor in Lux. It may differ from a normal dedicated luxmeter. Bulb Life App Icon by Nicholas Menghini from The Noun Project http://thenounproject.com/nl_menghini/.

A light meter is a device used to measure the amount of light. In photography, a light meter is often used to determine the proper exposure for a photograph. Typically a light meter will include a computer, either digital or analog, which allows the photographer to determine which shutter speed and f-number should be selected for an optimum exposure, given a certain lighting situation and film speed.

Light meters are also used in the fields of cinematography and scenic design, in order to determine the optimum light level for a scene. They are used in the general field of lighting, where they can help to reduce the amount of waste light used in the home, light pollution outdoors, and plant growing to ensure proper light levels.

What are users saying about Light Meter Harmony

D70%
by D####:

Not accurate. Sound and vibration meters do not state units of measurement but sound does not match my professional SPL meter in dB's. Also constantly nags to give a 5 star review, hence the 1 star review.

W70%
by W####:

Not being able to exit a mode without ether giving it a 5 star ir making it seem like thinking it's a failure is NOT ACCEPTABLE and app will be deleted for that and only for that reason as I haven't had the ability to form an opinion (I don't mind a 'rate now', 'rate later', 'won't rate popup ... if it is without a 5 demand)

G70%
by G####:

Literally this app drags me for its rating. It's annoying. Otherwise, it's good, as it is coming free.

D70%
by D####:

Asking for rating way to much that keeps it from getting a star! The light meter is simple to use and fairly accurate. Sound meter needs to be in decibels to be of any real use that keeps it from getting another star.. Vibration meter is what it is.

D70%
by D####:

I cannot use the main feature as my phone is not compatible. However the sound and vibration meter are excellent. The 4* rating is for these, as I cannot rate the light meter.

D70%
by D####:

Tried it on vibration and it seems to be very responsive. I wanted the light meter, I'll see how that works shortly. What is it measuring for sound? It's not dB's

N70%
by N####:

Would have given 4 stars but 1 less for annoying me to rate everytime. There, I did it.

D70%
by D####:

Constantly asking for rating in most annoying way possible wanted to give 1 star for that but I'll give 5, hope you will do something about that popup.

D70%
by D####:

Annoying asking for ratings. The app is ok after 1 minute use. But I think it is too early to rate it. Here you go, maybe I will up it with time if it does ok.

C70%
by C####:

Rating demand is annoying. Recommend adding unit's of measurement to display.

B70%
by B####:

Works reliably (accuracy is dependant on hardware, of course, but the app does precisely what it says it will), graph is a useful addition. There may be better or more fully featured light meters available, but I wouldn't know since this one does everything I need! Completely satisfied.

D70%
by D####:

Just left the STEM Symposium and this is a great alternative for teachers who don't have the $100 for the Lux, plus what a better way to get students engaged than to have a learning activity where using their phones is actually a good thing!

D70%
by D####:

Pretty accurate using my slowly dimming and brightening less I have turned to go slowly bright red to dark and black and fade back up again. It's pretty close.

D70%
by D####:

It's cool for getting numbers so you can compare this to that, like if you need to see how much a difference between when your grow light has the second set of wings ,(which are supposed to be placed in the middle according to manufacturer, when they obviously do better at delivering light to the whole table when they are mounted on the outside edges) BUT THIS METER DOES NOT PROVIDE ANY ACCURATE MEASUREMENT OF LIGHT LIKE LUMENS OR FOOT CANDLES, or amps or mega hertz

D70%
by D####:

Always asking for something. Here is my rating!! Now leave me alone!

U70%
by U####:

Give lux reading and is fairly accurate. When sensor is at 0 it stops logging so hence the 4 stars.

I70%
by I####:

My phone is not rooted so light sensor data not accessible but other functions are clever

D70%
by D####:

It's good enough for me. You may consider it could use the back light sensor as well. Sometimes we need to do measure of a light not so close and difficult to reach. Congratulations for this app

A#s holes

Z70%
by Z####:

Good meter seems to work okay. It would be nice if it were using the camera on the other side of my phone rather than the one facing me.

V70%
by V####:

I used this app to determine which headlight replacement provided the best output, worked great to determine high end GE blew away Sylvania

D70%
by D####:

Appears to be doing what ut needs to so when I figure out how to use the numbers it'll rock I'm sure

W70%
by W####:

Works well, wish it could convert lux to fc.

Q70%
by Q####:

Needs lots of upgrades like 0 zero Calibration, other Calibration, transfer data, conversion to various units

Q70%
by Q####:

Easy used, efficiency and good for my work on spesial lighting needed..

Q70%
by Q####:

It works better than others that I've tried

J70%
by J####:

It's a free app and allows me to track about 3 minutes of lighting changes on a screenshot. It says calibrated in Lux, but I have no way of checking this, but it does let me demonstrate that the lighting at my desk on not behaving & needs to adjusted. I haven't tried sound or vibration.

Q70%
by Q####:

Any app that nags about rating this much deserves 2 stars knocked off, would have been 5 stars otherwise

Q70%
by Q####:

Otherwise good. Would like to see information on what the light, sound and vibration levels mean.

Z70%
by Z####:

1. The rating reminder is too persistent for comfort. If I haven't rated your app after you reminding me a hundred times and you still keep reminding me. You've got to be a idiot! 2. The vibration module makes no sense. Is it accelerometer? Which axis? Vibration us supposed to be the sum of changes in acceleration on all the axis. The light module is what I needed and that works fine. :)

Q70%
by Q####:

Not bad for a free app. Need to include units in all light, sound and vibration meter. Except for light, else i hv no clue

U70%
by U####:

Nagged to rate and then has the nerve not to work. Then damned cheek of it. I was generous with one star, but it seems you can't score them minus or even zero. I feel conned , crap. Oops can I say crap?

Q70%
by Q####:

Like everyone else saying, any app that nags this much is incredibly annoying. It even fights you if you just try to leave without answering.

Q70%
by Q####:

Don't like nag for review. Plus no units. Light level on s5 was accurate per my light level meter. Within 20lux

S70%
by S####:

It differs so much so that it will show you zero lux when actually it's more than 15! And vice versa is also applicable. Deleting it immediately

Q70%
by Q####:

Light meter works. It would be better if it shows min and max Lux. Also there are no units on the green line that fluctuates

Q70%
by Q####:

I'm used to rate-pushing apps, but I used it for about 30 seconds after downloading and it's already pushing for one. So here you go.

Q70%
by Q####:

Just a clean, functional meter, which is all I wanted. If youre looking for specific guidance there are other apps/google for that.

Q70%
by Q####:

Seems accurate, easy to use, rating nag slightly annoying but assuming that is gone now, straightforward. Haven't used the sound or vibe meters but light suits my needs for checking luminosity

Q70%
by Q####:

30 seconds in,light metef no/sound ok,this thing bitches more than my wife,light does not work on my samsung tablet oh i forgot i love this app
