Most questions about SafeWall have one of the answers below. If yours is not here, write and you will get a reply.

The radar shows no signal anywhere on the wall

That is the expected reading on a plain patch of wall, and it is not the same as the wall being empty. Check that you zeroed the wall first, that the phone is flat against the surface, and that you are moving it slowly. If a whole wall reads flat, try the Concrete or Brick profile in Setup, which lowers the detection thresholds for targets that sit further away.

Everything reads as metal, even in the middle of a room

Something magnetic is sitting on the sensor. A MagSafe case, a magnetic car mount, a wallet with a clasp or a metal plate for a phone holder will all swamp the reading. Take the case off and zero the wall again. SafeWall warns you when it sees a field far above the Earth's.

Live wire analysis shows two dashes

Your phone's magnetic sensor does not deliver samples fast enough to separate the mains tone reliably, so SafeWall withholds the figure rather than showing one it cannot stand behind. Metal detection and the acoustic stud finder are unaffected. Closing other apps that use the compass sometimes raises the rate.

The stud finder does not react to my tapping

Record the reference tap first, on a spot you are sure is hollow. Tap with a knuckle rather than a fingertip, keep the phone resting against the wall, and work in a quiet room. If the app says the tap clipped, tap a little softer.

I bought Pro but the features are still locked

Open Setup and tap Restore purchases. If that does not help, check that you are signed in to the same store account you bought with. Write to gelistirbizi@gmail.com with the date of purchase and we will sort it out.

How do I cancel a subscription

Subscriptions are managed by the store, not by us. On iOS: Settings, your name, Subscriptions. On Android: Play Store, profile, Payments and subscriptions. Cancelling stops the renewal and Pro stays active until the period you paid for ends. The lifetime option never renews, so there is nothing to cancel.

My scan log disappeared

Scans are stored only on the device, which is what keeps them private. Deleting the app, or moving to a new phone, does not carry them across, and they cannot be recovered afterwards.

Does it work without internet

Yes, completely. The only thing that needs a connection is confirming a purchase.
