## Description

Magnetometer is a real‑time magnetic field viewer for Android. It shows live µT readings, heading, and a history graph so you can see how the magnetic field changes as you move your device.  
  
Key features:  
  
\- Live magnetic field strength (µT) and 3‑axis values (X/Y/Z)  
\- Compass heading with tilt compensation  
\- Proximity indicator (COLD / WARM / HOT)  
\- Adjustable sensitivity (detection threshold)  
\- Sound and vibration alerts that intensify with stronger signals  
\- Calibration to set a baseline for accurate detection  
\- History graph to visualize changes over time  
\- Demo mode for testing on devices without a magnetometer  
  
Notes:  
  
\- This app is for fun/experiments and does not replace professional metal detectors.  
\- Only magnetic (ferromagnetic) materials significantly affect the readings.
