New version 1.3.0 β†’ 1.4.0

This update sharpens measurement accuracy: β€’ Corrected the IEEE 1789-2015 pass/fail threshold to match the standard's published Recommended Practice, so compliance verdicts are now accurate across the full frequency range. β€’ More precise flicker-frequency detection, with rejection of slow ambient light drift. β€’ Steadier frame-rate estimation for more consistent readings. β€’ Honest, clearly-labeled measurement uncertainty in reports. Custom pass/fail thresholds you set in Settings are now applied to the on-screen verdict, saved measurements, and reports.

About

Your new LEDs shouldn't be giving you headaches. If they are, the lights are almost certainly flickering β€” faster than your eyes can consciously detect, but fast enough to trigger migraines, eye strain, and fatigue. FlickerSpec turns your iPhone into a flicker meter, using the 240fps camera to measure exactly what your eyes can't. For compliance documentation β€” clinical engineering, facility management, EU Ecodesign certification β€” FlickerSpec generates PDF reports with IEEE 1789 and IEC PstLM verdicts that satisfy accreditation surveyors and lighting auditors. WHAT YOU MEASURE Quick Measurement (Free) Live 240fps capture with real-time results: β€’ Dominant flicker frequency in Hz β€’ Percent Flicker and Flicker Index per IEEE 1789-2015 β€’ Signal-to-noise ratio and confidence rating β€’ IEEE 1789-2015 Pass/Fail verdict β€’ Live luminance waveform and FFT spectrum IEC Certified Measurement (Pro) 3-minute tripod capture for compliance documentation: β€’ Short-Term Flicker Severity (PstLM) per IEC TR 61547-1:2015 β€’ EU Ecodesign 2019/2020 PASS/FAIL (threshold: PstLM ≀ 1.0) β€’ 8Γ— oversampled LM flickermeter validated against all 5 IEC Table A.1 test vectors β€’ Suitable for clinical engineering and lighting audit documentation Measurement Logging & PDF Reports (Pro) Every audit, documented: β€’ Save measurements with GPS location, fixture photo, and notes β€’ Single-measurement and session-summary PDF reports β€’ PstLM + EU Ecodesign section included when applicable β€’ Calibration certificate reference on every report β€’ CSV export for spreadsheet workflows Calibration System (Free) Verify accuracy before any audit: β€’ Built-in calibration web app generates a known-frequency reference signal β€’ Point your iPhone at any screen showing the calibration page β€’ Timestamped calibration certificate attached to all subsequent reports MEASUREMENT BANDWIDTH 240fps camera capture (Nyquist: 120 Hz) measures mains-driven LED flicker reliably: β€’ 60 Hz flicker (half-wave LED drivers, US) β€” full accuracy β€’ 120 Hz flicker (full-wave rectified, US) β€” frequency reliable; use the 3-min IEC flow for stable depth measurements β€’ Above 120 Hz PWM and kHz drivers β€” outside camera bandwidth NO SUBSCRIPTIONS $49.99 one-time purchase unlocks everything: IEEE 1789 verdicts, IEC Certified Measurement, unlimited logging, PDF reports, CSV export, calibration certificates, report header customization with your company name and logo. Free tier: full live measurement display, frequency and metrics readout, up to 5 measurements per day β€” enough to check any room.
