Illuminance light meter : test your light (my first app )

[aylin_mohamed]

MY FRIST APP MADE BY THUNKABLE
using the amazing extension made by @Taifun App Inventor Extensions: Light | Pura Vida Apps

Use your light sensor as light lux meter and check if the light illuminance level match the lux level requirements for office or home

• Illuminance is the best application for measuring illuminance (lux, fc)
• See if the light level match the lux level requirements
• Check if the light is enough for some places like ( Homes, Office Work and Workshops)
• Use the light sensor of your Android device to know the best illuminance for you
• You can measure the light amount in lux or foot-candle
• Compare between different light sources and LED bulb lamps

Nice app. Bug Found: If You change the language a couple of times the app crashes. Besides, only in English the status bar is visible.

Well done!
How can light sensor be used in Thunkable? There isn’t a specific block, isn’t it?

[aylin_mohamed]

there is extension for the light sensor you can find it in the community

fyi there is the Light Sensor Extension to get the illuminance…
@aylin_mohamed, did you use an extension by accident? If yes, it would be great, it you could give credit to the extension developer…

Still crashing after switching the language a couple of times.

[aylin_mohamed]

yes i see … as a friend suggest me that opining another screen and not closing the previews one may be the reason

Unfortunately quite useless if you do not provide any good guide how to use… Also the user is given an option to “calibrate” the device sensor but how on earth should anybody know what value to set? I like the idea but I think the execution is not very good

[aylin_mohamed]

i will make new update … i will show a sign next to the label text to tell the user if the light is enough or not and provide a better guide as you said
calibration is on all other competitor app …can be used only to calibrate with a real light meter device
the standard number is value *1.6 because i use a real device to compare my sensor
thanks for your notes

I like @Taifun extensions because they are so useful. I’m telling to @Taifun to develop more extensions.
