Problem is – the “detector” is the iphone camera with the lens covered, which will pick up all kinds of high energy radiation. The app analyzes the “image” and if enough pixels light up, it gets recorded as an event – exactly like a similar app does for detecting gamma radiation. There cannot be very much discrimination between the two apps, so all this will tell you is that some kind of radiation is coming through the lens cover… OTOH – this is good to know…. J
