About Magnetometer Tester

Magnetometer Tester visualizes the Earth's magnetic field in real time. Monitor X, Y, and Z axis readings, view the combined field strength on a live chart, and rotate a digital compass needle with precise headings. Perfect for testing phone sensors or exploring magnetic environments.

  1. Press Start testing and allow magnetometer access when prompted by the browser.
  2. Hold your device flat to see the baseline magnetic field strength and compass heading.
  3. Move the device near magnets or metal objects to observe spikes on the realtime chart.
  4. Use Calibrate compass to zero the heading from your current orientation.
  5. Reset when you want to clear the history and begin a fresh capture.
