Contractor tool box

Stud finder is now on call in my digital tool box . I use it daily and it’s as accurate as the $300 stud finder I have not used since purchasing this app

Disappointed

Downloaded and paid the $2.99 just in case, tried on knife and fork and seemed to work. I then tried on bathroom wall and I went back and forth and up and down, it beeped in 4 places so I measured and calculated to catch the studs. Thought it was good and seemed like it was sturdy safety bar. First time it pulled out. Not 2 of 6 screws caught a stud. I poked an ice pick to feel in each direction and nothing.

Is not working

It’s not worthy. Spend money for nothing
