Sweet!

Im at my sons house last night to help him with a TV wall mount. While were trying to position the wall bracket, I asked if he had a stud finder. "No" was the response. So I pull out my iPhone and head to the App Store -- certain that this would be the time that Id find out that there is actually NOT "an app for that." To my surprise there were several. Some paid, but a few free, too.

After checking out app descriptions and some of the reviews, I downloaded "Metal Detector". It worked great, in spite of my doubt about the iPhones ability to find something solid to secure the bracket for the TV.

IT WORKED GREAT!! I like the "density scale" (my term) that moved into the red going across a stud. I gained some confidence in its accuracy as it detected 3 studs, 16" apart -- a standard for construction. We got the bracket up and TV mounted without any problems.

And my license plate "APP4THT" remains accurate.
