📱 HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS
▶ Ambient light sensor: This sensor is usually installed on the front camera of the device. If your device does not have a front camera, it is very possible that you do not have this sensor. The measure of ambient light on Android devices is lux. Lux is the intensity of light in a space.
▶ Accelerometer sensor: this sensor is usually equipped in the vast majority of smartphone and tablet devices. The app tries to use the linear accelerometer sensor which gives the best results. If your device does not have this sensor, the app will automatically use the NON-linear accelerometer sensor, which is less accurate.
▶ Proximity sensor: this sensor is located on the front camera of the device. This type of sensor uses centimeters (cms) as distance to measure proximity, however most detect two states of NEAR and FAR, not being able to detect intermediate distances between 0 cm and, for example, 5 cm.
▶ Flash: the flash is equipped next to the rear camera. Despite having a rear camera, it is possible that your device does not have a flash, for example some tablets have a rear camera but do not have a flash.
▶ Magnetic Sensor: this sensor is found in more modern devices.
