Settings

Access the app settings by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen.

Sensitivity

Controls how sensitive the detector is to magnetic anomalies.

Value	Use case
Low	High-mineral soil, reduces false positives
Medium	General use (recommended starting point)
High	Clean soil, maximises detection range

Volume

Sets the audio alert volume from 0% (silent) to 100% (maximum). Adjust this or use headphones in quiet environments.

Phone Position

Tells the app how you are holding the phone during scanning, so it can correctly orient the sensor data.

Option	When to use
In Hand	Holding the phone in your free hand while scanning
On Detector	Phone is mounted in the holder on the detector rod

3D Mode

Controls how scan lines are triggered during 3D Ground Scan.

Mode	Description
Manual	You press the control button to start and stop each scan line
Auto	The app starts and stops lines automatically based on movement
Camera	Lines are triggered via the phone camera (Advanced/Professional only)

3D Direction

Sets the walking pattern for 3D Ground Scan.

Option	Description
Parallel	Walk all lines in the same direction
Zig-zag	Reverse direction at the end of each line

Length

Sets the expected length of each scan line. The app uses this to scale the 3D map correctly. Enter the distance in metres.

Scan Resolution (GoldenEye Plus only)

Controls the distance between scan lines. See Professional Mode for details.

GPS Location

Enables GPS tagging for stored scans. When enabled, each scan is saved with its real-world coordinates so you can navigate back to it later.

Toggle this off if you are scanning indoors or in an area with no GPS signal.
