Accuracy of iPhone Light Meter app

[hydroburn249]

hello guys. not really a RF specific question, but i guess its useful for those using meterless cameras.

how accurate is the iPhone Light meter app compared to a Sekonic or Gossen or anything like that? sometimes when out shooting we only have the iPhone with us.

so was wondering how accurate is it?

It is very accurate.

It is quite accurate. But if the place is too dim, it cant get a reading..

thanks for the replies. i gather its a spot meter? since u tap on the spot and a red square appears.

What app you guys currently using?recently I used the "fotometerpro" app and it's not that accurate while shooting at night
