Not Accurate

I was trying to read the lumen output of a 23,000 lumens metal halide bulb, this app claimed it was 54 lux, which would be 5 lumen per square foot. Not accurate, not a real measuring devices. It just claims a random number. Not even close.
Wrong.
this is not the one I wanted
If you really need a light meter don't waste your money on this. Iphones use spot metering, a real lux meter uses inversed diffused light. Not possible to be accurate, or even close. Side by side with a real meter it's clear that this is a total ripoff. Might be useful to make yourself look cool, as a gag.
Junk

I held the app to a light and got a reading. Then I did it again. Guess what? Completely different reading. I tried this on several lights and got the same result. It might be okay if the reading was wrong but consistant. At least then I could compare some of the new light bulbs that are on the market. This app is junk; a game. Don't waste your money.

So is it a spot meter or an incident meter? And how do you get a stop ratio with the lux system?
Useful utility app

Seems to be consistent when I take several readings they only vary slightly from each other. I like it!
Inaccurate

Compared to a Extech lux meter, readings from this app were at least 30% off. It might be good for comparative readings, but that about all.
App does my work with iPhone 6

Not accurate either. Measured lux of a solid black object held up in contact with the lens and got a reading of 47 LUX. Good for relative readings and for taking your money. Toy.

I was given a really neat manual camera lens for Xmas and thought this app would be helpful. Turns out I have no idea how to convert lux into useful photography information. The internet definitions are like taking a math course. I'm an artist not a mathematician.
